Opinions on enclosure design for an Audio Equalizer
Hi, I'm designing a custom enclosure for an audio equalizer circuit (personal project). I've already 3D printed my 1st design and the idea was to design an enclosure that was just more than a simple box with sharp edges. I'm aiming for a more modern design with smooth edges (almost Apple like). For this 1st iteration I took inspiration from a similar products. As you can see the enclosure has some custom knobs for the sliding potentiometers and holes for some switches, and I designed the faceplate so it's tilted to the front so that the user can more easily interreact with the switches and sliding potentiometers when placed on flat surface like a desk.
I decided to go with a white aesthetic color for the enclosure and all the knobs are light blue with a black color in the middle for contrast. The lettering is also black.
Right now I'm trying to go for a second design iteration that will be more compact since it will now include a PCB (printed circuit board) instead of just the breadboard with the circuit and all the wires dangling around which take up a lot of space.
Let's say that if this were to be a commercial product, what things would you change to improve the design? You can suggest anything from changing the shape of the overall enclosure, position an of the switches, shape of the knobs and even the colors for the different features, etc. I'm really curious to read your opinions. I appreciate you feedback, thanks!
