Well, ∗almost∗ 1/2 way but close enough.

The IRS at my door, probably.
Actually, here is a list of stuff and the probablility of ∗shipping∗ by Dec
15th (the last day of the MOTM year).
MOTM-130 Dual Pan/Fade VCA 100%
Triple Preamp 100%
Voltage-Controlled Pulse Divider 100%
Envelope follower 90%
Oberheim SEM filter 80%
2 new waveshapers I haven't talked about 50%
Mini-sequencer 20% (depends on order rate after Sept 1st)
In general, the R&D time is 'stolen' from order fulfillment time. The kit
backlog is 80% gone, but the assembled
backlog is still up there.
The ∗current∗ order rate is on track for shipping ~1100 modules this year
(818 were shipped last year). I also
need time to manage the purchase/shipping/storage of over $80,000 worth of
parts. And my daughter keeps swiping
the tape and stapler.
Well, back to work! (finishing up MOTM-830 Mixer documentation so I can copy
it Monday for shipments starting Wed.)
