Subject: Kit alternatives

Hi Stephen,
 
As for kits, you can buy bare PCB's and front panels from Paul still after some of the modules are no longer available. This is a bit more DIY but the whole kit-building process will be there for you.
 
You mention Blacet, but do not forget Oakley (coming back soon) and Ken Stone's Cat Girl Modules. Both of these manufacturers make some very fine compliments to the MOTM line. I will also miss the kits, but since I have my own master plan almost completed I will make adjustments as needed going forward. Cheers!
 
Thomas

Most of this is fine and dandy, and I'm sure it'll all be for the good
in the long run. However, I'm severely pissed that kits are being
discontinued. I've thoroughly enjoyed building them, and take a
certain pride in that every single module in my modular was built by
me. However, I can live with it, and adapt. I currently have a modular
synth master plan that's mostly completed - I can probably buy the
remaining kits for phase one of my plan before they are all gone. And
the master plan included several modules that couldn't be had in kit
form anyway, so there's no big voodoo being violated in that regards.
So look for my 700 order soon, and hopefully my next two 300 orders
won't take so long this time!

And blacet will have to fill my need to solder things after all the
smoke has cleared.

P.S. it's too bad the sale on kits is so short - maybe you should
extend it, as you're discontinuing them anyway? Or not...
