1) Tweaking the '410 with JH. Trying to cover the spread of Vactrols, caps,
op amps, etc
to have the widest musical range. Waiting for new caps to arrive tomorrow
for final round of
educated guessing. This unit has ∗no trimmers∗, so there is some 'slop' in
the controls.

Approved silkscreen stencil today. Will not have the little box area: this
looked dorky and added cost
to me. Extended the "half tick" marks slightly as the knobs covered them up
too much.

Note that to get the most use out of the unit (the controls are
interactive), youu will have to RTFM
(this means you, T.F.)

2) Received new MOTM-800 pcbs with Rocket's official Trigger ADSR on Roland
Gate Only mod. Adds a diode
(to protect 555 input) and a wire to switched trigger jack. Will build these
up over weekend. I owe several
folks 800s, and these will ship next week. I need to revise the manual
slightly and kit up.

3) Received early (!) gift: MOTM-320 pcbs arrived! Will solder that up as
well. I need to do the front panel,
so we are still 3-4 weeks away from shipping. There is also 4 solid days in
there somewhere to finish up
(yea!) big non-MOTM project. (MOTM now funded for 12 more months at ∗least∗
!).

4) The 410s will start shipping (unless painter screws me over) Monday the
4th.

5) JH & PS are working on new secret modules! Keep those soldering irons
warm.
