== Aesthetics ==
Fabricating attractive front panels for a synthesizer can be a real challenge. Great care should go into creating an attractive synthesizer. The quality of work put into a guitar build, chrome fittings, pearl inlays, exotic woods all help inspire the musician and so it should be with the synthesizer. The design of a good-looking system requires much time spent mentally going over the various relationships of the modules and how the instrument will be used.<ref name="henry">''Build a Better Music Synthesizer'' by Thomas Henry, Tab Books, 1987, ISBN 0-8306-0255-0</ref>
It's usual for front panels to have the function or model name along the top edge and the designer's name or the brand name along the bottom edge.
