      I*m just dropping this here as a guide because I just researched it, as I tend to make the mistake myself when designing my knobs and buttons. All units are preceded by a space, so it's 10 Hz not 10Hz etc. Keep it in mind when designing your plugins and button values/labels etc ;)

      The International Bureau of Weights and Measures takes a no-nonsense approach: ‘The numerical value always precedes the unit, and a space is always used to separate the unit from the number,’ it says.

      The only exceptions it makes are for the unit symbols for degree, minute, and second – °, ‘ and ” respectively – which don’t need a space.

          That settles it then, I'm going to use two spaces every time, just to annoy the Bureau!
