a) the 15% off sale is slowing down, but the number of modules has hit the 400+
mark. I'm in the process of figuring out what needs to be ordered this week
(wire is #1, followed by jacks, knobs and sheet metal). I will say more Pedal
Interfaces were sold in 1 week than in the last 26 months :)

b) this past week, while the kit folks in Indiana were off, I worked on more
assembled modules. I have concluded that building 8 MOTM-440 VCFs in 1 day is
not easy :(
I am also starting 20 MOTM-650s tomorrow. I hope to have a RC2 code by the end
of the week that clears up some arpeggiator clock bugs. I also discovered a new
bug that user tuning tables 8-15 are corrupted. If you want to dump in a new
tuning, be sure to map it into 1 of the first 7 user slots.

c) It will be around 10 days before we can start shipping kits from the sale.
The kits will be done in batches of 12-18 at a time, based on popularity. It's
then shipped by order number (the shopping cart should have sent you an email
with an order #). If it makes sense and does not slow things down too badly, I
will try to ship multiple orders from the same person in as few shipments as
possible. No one will be charged for additional postage.

d) remember: if you are overseas, I CANNOT ship solder.

e) the MOTM-910 mults will now use a pc board instead of hand-wiring/soldering.
This board will be a preview of how newer modules are constructed.

Thanks in advance for waiting for the kits to ship. There are around 2500 jacks,
1800 knobs and 4000 pieces of wire to buy. Ack!
