hello all,
i might also add, that, the (not having seen them up front) ten colours
(nine plus zero) available will conform to the AES approved colour /
numbering system for cable looms, which (prepare for satori moment) is
exactly the same as the resistor colour code... ...now tell me i'm wrong..?
meanwhile, kit builders of the world maybe interested in this:
http://www.orgon.fsnet.co.uk/readers of the UK magazine "The Mix" (not the US version, and a poor
relation to Sound On Sound) may remember an article some months ago about
DIY filters - well this chap has just relaunched his website, originally
there were some interesting modules on offer - i for one would has bought a
cheap and nasty envelope follower for butchering, but they seem to
evaporated. i won't comment on the site content though...
meanwhile again, i'm just in the final stages of updating my website
www.pasc.syol.com don't laugh too much cos i've had a terrible time with
filenames, so half the images are still missing, but there's a MOTM
dedicated page www.pasc.syol.com/modular.html i've got a link to Ken's site
(if that's okay), but obviously i'd like to add a big heap of MOTM related
sites - anyone who wants to be included, just email me privately
cheers all
