Not that the percussion modules will ever happen, but... Yes, as I said in
my original post, they are somewhat duplications because you can essentially
build the same things with other modules (one at a time--unless you have a
huge setup). I may build some of the perc. modules on my own. For those of
you interested, what controls/inputs/outputs do you think they should have?
Does anyone have schematics to get me started (other than the Thomas Henry
stuff)?
The perc. modules would do a lot for the MOTM even though 2 individuals said
they wouldn't want them. They would be relatively inexpensive--$89 or under
for the kits. They would only be 1U. It would generate additional press
for the MOTM--something fairly unique and in demand. It would bring new
purchasers into the MOTM family which wouldn't have existed otherwise. IT
would be fairly easy for Paul (I would think) to design and produce.
And most importantly, a great performance feature. I have the feeling the
majority of modular owners (and MOTM owners for that matter) typically do
not drag their equipment out and perform live. Yes, I know a few people do.
Perhaps it is easy to loose sight of what performing live can mean to have
such control--not just over a single sound--but a whole army of sounds (yes,
I am stretching here!).
Thanks!
