I would also like to chime in on the LED issue. I am all for spending the
extra dollars to make my new unit all blinky on stage and it helps you to
remember the power is on at the end of those late night synth binges! I have
some gear with tri-color LED's (M∗∗ger Foogers) to indicate overload I think
is pretty damn cool. Green-Yellow-Red style would be as great overload
indicator for the mixer or VCA. Just my opinion!
This list is great for a lone synth junkie like me. I'm sure you all know
what it's like to try and talk modular or cv/gate with a friend who stares
back with patiently blank eye's like you're talking in greek ocasionally
going uh huh, uh huh while nodding. I am a proud to be one of the first 100
MOTM owners in the world and like the rest of you, I am more than anxious to
see the future come into focus with new high quality modules and
technologies from Paul and MOTM. I've got modular fever and I don't ever
want to be cured! Enjoy friends

PS. Spoke to aliens last night with my MOTM. They should be placing an order
next week for their own "space communicator" from Paul!!! (And I only have 4
modules, Yikes man what can you guys with over 20 modules be doing?!!!Who
has the most modules so far???)
