Another benefit of using short patch cables for the PR6 is that it's a bit
easier to access the connectors beneath it, like the paddle socket.

It's not that heavy Mike, and it has 2 connectors to hold it.
It is also "protected" by the rats nest of connectors above it, in
particular the serial one :-)
That said, someone in the past posted that he used 2 semi-rigid cables
and placed it under the K3 which he keeps tilted.
