Yes, there will be a MOTM Fixed-Filter Bank based on the Moog 907A.

A 907A would be fantastic but a 914 would perhaps fulfill more
dreams... so here is my thought:
I think the policy of complete kits is a warranty for the overall
quality of the module (MOTM is a standard now)and, though I love
partial kits I can not object anything to this "complete kits" choice
but, maybe in a very few occasions, the choice of partial kits (Pcb
and F.P. i.e.)could be of some help. Big projects like a FFB,
Sequencer (Supermoe or Minimoes) or a Vocoder would become more
affordable at the beginning for many of us and the only "serious
risk" i.m.o. is that there might be a few modules around with
scratchy low quality pots bearing the MOTM name but I would think
seriously about this possibility of partial kits for very big
projects.
