Yep, if CMS was that concerned about longevity they would have used 1/4"
jacks. You'd think a guy who did so much service on Arp 2600s would know
better. Maybe it is part of a built in semi-retirement plan (snicker).
Nice panel designs, though if you pay attention the normalling (pulse or
sawtooth to PWM on the dual VCO, for instance) is limited and most of the
knobs are small, about the size of the UEG knobs. I wouldn't mind seeing a
little more graphics variety in future MOTM panels, but not at the expense
of panel user interface.
Right now I am really happy that I made the decision to go MOTM. Paul and
Jurgen design the highest quality analog circuits in the business, and
provide those modules at a reasonable, non-boutique cost with exceptional
quality components. I have no doubt that my MOTM will survive long past any
other modulars, including CMS.
