The MUUB has arrived!

Any plans to rerelease the Veeblefetzer?  Meters are cool, but alsovery handy.

I just wanted to let everyone know that the circuit boards I was
expecting in August have all arrived. This includes: TLN-156 Neural
Agonizer (spring reverb), DB-120 (add on to MOTM-120), and TLN-854
Sword of Kahless (ribbon controller). So everything is ready to be
shipped, details can be found here:

New on the list of available PCBs is MUUB, the Multi-Use Universal
Buffer. MUUB is a general purpose PCB that can be used to create a
variety of op-amp based circuits for creating new modules, or adding
enhancements to existing modules. MUUB is another group effort by
Richard Brewster, Larry Hendry, and myself. MUUB comes in two sizes:
MUUB-2 contains one dual op-amp, MUUB-4 contains two dual op-amps.
When putting this together, I had a look through Jung's op-amp
cookbook and Craig Anderton's books and found well over two dozen
useful circuits that can be created using one or more MUUBs. I've
also brain stormed several new utility modules and enhancements to
MOTM modules that I'm planning to publish over the next few months
that use MUUBs. I will write this all up in the MUUB user guide,
someday, when I get a chance. And I'm sure that Larry and Richard are
also working on some interesting MUUB designs.

In the meantime, Stooge Larry suggested we have a circuit design
contest to build up a pool of MUUB circuits. I think this is a great
idea and I've put up the contest rules on my website (along with all
currently available MUUB documentation):

Anybody can enter, since there's only one judge (me), there shouldn't
be any collusion. I won't publish any of my own designs until after
the contest.
