Wires from the operators were all trimmed so they were the approximate length to meet the junction board without being short and without leaving excessive wire. If the face were not transparent, it might have been acceptable to leave extra wire which would be loose and probably tangled but hidden.
Each pair of operators had a ground wire split between them. One of the problems with the last version may have been that the ground wire was snaked along all the potentiometers and switches. Tracking problems to a single junction board and a single device should be easier than before too. Ground and power buses were run on the long side of the board so there were ample places to tap power.
The second junction board was connected to the controller. Placing all the color-coded wires would set the precedent for the rest of the modules using the same wires and the previous module, which did not follow the color code, set the groundwork for this module.
The rest of the posts for this project have been arranged by date.

Trimmed signal wires
Each pair of operators had a ground wire split between them. One of the problems with the last version may have been that the ground wire was snaked along all the potentiometers and switches. Tracking problems to a single junction board and a single device should be easier than before too. Ground and power buses were run on the long side of the board so there were ample places to tap power.
Landed ground and power wires
The second junction board was connected to the controller. Placing all the color-coded wires would set the precedent for the rest of the modules using the same wires and the previous module, which did not follow the color code, set the groundwork for this module.
