Subject: Re: [motm] 5u sales vs Euro lately..

My sentiments exactly! MOTM 5U is the very best and I'm sure it will win many converts once you're able to bring delivery times down via SMT.

Personally, I wasn't excited about the Pulse Divider but I am still committed to expanding my (rather large) MOTM synth and I absolutely will buy more 5U modules when you bring them out. Party on!

I second this. 

I started on a (borrowed) Serge, built up a bunch of MOTM, sold half of it and bought Euro format and now selling all of my Euro modules. They sound OK but they don't feel as good nor do they strike me as gear that will be around in 10 years. I anticipate my MOTM gear to be inherited by my son!

Paul, my thought is that once these Euro dudes see the light, they will move on to one of the "serious" formats. Euro is the gateway drug. Serge, Buchla, Modcan, or MOTM are the "bog boys", and out there, MOTM is known to be the best. So keep the 5u alive. Move them to SMT if you have to, (so you can stuff PCB's behind Eu and 5u panels) but find a way to keep MOTM on the shelf! 
eMOTM just 'aint the same.
