I have some photos I will be posting as soon as I can get my feet back on

I can offer a few quick reports:
Thursday and Friday the Synth Tech booth was buzzing virtually all day long.
I was not there Saturday.
New MOTM Sequencer = AWESOME. And, I think it will get even better before
it gets finalized. Robert is twisting Paul's arm.
New MOTM Wavewarper = different than anything I have ever seen. Talk about
abusing audio. This is certainly it. :) Mine is on order.
Scott Rider was telling me about the proposed VC EG. It sounds very nice
with some cool, features like end of cycle trigger pulses that could be
selected to different spots in the EG cycle. Hopefully, this week I will be
making the prototype front panel. This is one that I would love to twist on
Paul's arm to move up the priority list.
The new MOTM modules are being featured in the "news" section in the next
issue of EM mag. Be sure to get your copy. I saw a copy (pre-release, I
guess) there. Very cool. :)
I played the Doepfer ribbon controller. I really did like the ribbon
itself. But, the module attached to it was way stupid even to a Stooge like
me. I think we need a MOTM format Stooge panel and PCB will all the cool
features and correct implementation of a ribbon element that will allow one
to connect a Doepfer Ribbon. I'm going to order one (even though I dislike
the notion of buying anything Doepfer).
Almost everyone I met at the show was very nice. I only bumped into one
but-wipe the whole time (he shall remain nameless). It was really cool to
meet Roger Powell. I also met MOTMers Thomas White, Russell Brower, Terry
Ahrens and his wife. And, of course, I met both Paul S and Robert Rich for
the first time. I met Cynthia Webster of Cynthia modules, Joseph Rivers
from the Audio Playground Synth Museum, Amanda Pehlke (who previously
married Mark Pulver at NAMM). There were others. I shook Dr. Bob's hand on
set up day Wednesday. That was cool.
More when I'm not so tired.
