I see we are smoking from the same tree.
Having taken some hours off to go lake scouting with an angling friend, and then tucking away a 16 oz steak for lunch, I have now found time to catch up on proceedings.
A few things we have to row back on:
1. I changed the typeface in Bushmaster from that I used in the word Caiman. Judging from that move, nobody ever objected to the Caiman font and style. So maybe I should go back to that style and drop any additional text under Bushmaster. i.e. drop the Digital to Analog Converter bit.
2. I want to keep the logo font separate from anything else. Our type setter seemed to have accidentally switched font there, and I stupidly didn't notice that. The origin of the reason for using the type of font and style in the original and correct logo is based on reasons of the past. Heritage is important to me, so I don't want to amend that part.
As for the remainder:
3. The text layout at the bottom of the case that Werner has suggested looks quite good.
4. The words headphone and power can be replaced by symbols. I am flexible on that, so I shall keep monitoring the opinions for and against that part.
5. But "input" should be "select". I can see many of my customers wondering what "input" does. Yes, I do get email queries that have me wondering why the query poser doesn't get it. I prefer to try to reduce that extra level of possible confusion.
6. There should be channel numbers above the LEDs as Gary has added in his design change. Oherwise it will be hard to figure out which input is in operation.
The name Bushmaster was chosen to reflect the environment that I was born into.I posted some years ago a picture of me with a dispatched Bushmaster.
Why use Bushmaster though? The DAC has some options like music search, stealth LED mode, sleep, etc. The sort of things that a hunter would recognize.
But let's not overlook the fact that it is not everyday that you the consumer gets a chance to have an input in the design of an item. So let's make the best use of it, and show other forums why AoS is so much different and better.
