Don't get me wrong.........I'm very excited about this MPS.
Just trying to figure out what makes the most sense.
 
When this Module was first mentioned,
I had visions of the old Syndrums, where you had a desk-top unit
that produced 2 drums. NOT saying it has to be this way,
that's just what I pictured. A single module capable of 2 drums(or 1-cym+1-drm)
 
Before I dive into panel designs(and I definitely will...)
Please post some of your potential applications.
 
I'm thinking this 1-GIANT module will be great for multiple toms.
Create some fat analog sounds with short decay,
then send 4 or 5 pitches to it to produce 4 or 5 toms..........

My feeling on this is that you could hard wire certain options to eliminate knobs.

I originally bought 6 PCBs intending to do just that.  But since then I've decided that if I want a(nother) drum machine I ought to buy a(nother) drum machine and I want to keep my percussive range open to all creative possibilities with this.  I might not keep all 6, we'll see.

Practically speaking, I can't imagine that Scott could create 8 different panels to fit everyone's hard wiring in an economical way.  You probably want to do an fpd.

cheers,

It still looks like A LOT of Real Estate for 1 drum.
 
This sounds like the type of thing people will want to use live also.
There must be a way to have a panel this Big accomodate at least 2..........

Other than enough cab space? ;-)

I have 3 boards and have been waiting for this panel. The size seems acceptable to me. I am hoping to pair them with a quad bass++ module if/when that panel gets done. (HINT HINT.) Throw in some random arps and a MOTM 730 and it will be like having your own private Gavin Harrison!
