Subject: Re: [motm] MOTM SYNTHS

Thanks very much Michael :-)

I'd say go and order a 190 with Paul, but if you are in a real hurry, why don't you give E-bay a go, sometimes MOTM modules creep up there, not often, but there could be other compatible mfg's out there, for example Oakley or so? I was lucky to scoop up a MOTM 120 sub mux there for a good price recently, and it was flawless (sorry Paul :-)  , but it has a good home now :-)  ).

Photo's of a system under construction are also welcome, like I said before, doesn't have to be a monster synth, small can be beautiful (to me a single module is , I remember my first single module, and had fun dreaming about the others that would one day complement it, and now I have a small but complete synth, comprising of: 1 VCO, 1 VCA, 1 Submux, 2 VCF's, 2 ADSR's, 1 Noise/SH, 1 midi/CV, 1 LFO, 1 power supply, and still have a second VCO, one wave warper, and a multiple on order, plus a power distribution board to help supply all the modules that I do not have yet, but plan for :-)

I will submit my photos to you. I have physically ordered about 5 modules from Paul, but I do own a filled 22 space .com studio cab. Half of these modules were purchased second hand. 4 of which are filters. Still need a Motm 190 amp module to complete an MOTM monosynth. Which I need to order or find used, anyone?

a) well, it depends on what you mean by "synths". If that is a
VCO/VCF/EG/VCA, and that chain is 100% MOTM, then I would say a decent guess
is about 475 systems.

b) I have shipped at least 1 module to (as of today) 634 ∗different∗ people.
Of this number, over 100 are '1 and done', meaning they bought 3 or fewer
modules and never ordered again.

c) there are several people that had large systems, sold them as individual
modules that I'm sure spawned into several true "systems".

d) Isn't it odd that I am the ∗only∗ synth manufacturer that even 'admits'
to their selling numbers?
