Line 1:
A comparison of the [[5U]] modular synth format (aka form factor), from all known modular synthesizer manufacturers. 5U (8.75") is the format introduced by [[Moog]] and the width of the original Moog modules were 1U (2.125"), so this is called [[MU]] (for Moog Unit). The 5U/MU format is also referred to as ''Dotcom''. 5U modules with a 1.75" width are sometimes referred to as ''MOTM'' format.
