The list as gone very quiet recently, everybody has got something better to do. I wish I had!
I took the Black Mellotron out for a test drive tonight. Finished the restoration at 4 AM this morning. Nothing like a live audience when you want to hang your ass in the breeze. Except for having forgotten to tighten the lock nuts on the key height limiter and to push the 11 pin connector all the way in (talk about a 60 cycle hum!), it worked fine. A spectacular machine if I do say so myself.
A couple of minor bugs to work out. There's nothing like baptism by fire.
