I've used mine quite a bit with my limited set of MOTM modules. The
only thing that was disappointing to me on the ASM-1 are the ADSRs.
And I can only be totally subjective here. I may have them calibrated
incorrectly, but they seem "touchy." Too much change in the interesting
places, not enough change in others. When I compare them to the ADSRs
on an old PAIA 4700 series modular, I'm not able to get the same nice
plucked string sounds (think harpsichord). And they don't seem as
punchy.

Other than that I'm quite happy with the one that I've built. It was
hell wiring the panel. I actually have three more circuit boards and
panels. But to be honest I'd rather build MOTM modules.
