A physical panel used to fill unused spaces in a modular synthesizer case. Blank panels prevent dust, debris, or accidental contact with exposed power rails, ensuring the system stays clean and safe while maintaining a polished, professional appearance. It also has a side effect of making empty spots you are tempted to fill feel complete which may keep you from buying unnecessarily.
Examples:
- A 6HP blank panel fills the space in a Eurorack case until a new module is installed.
- Custom blank panels can include artwork or branding, adding a personal touch to your setup.
- Ventilated blank panels allow airflow to help cool modules in densely packed systems.
Blank panels are both functional and aesthetic, protecting your system while keeping it looking tidy and organized.
Synonyms:
blind panel
