Hi people, Does anyone know where I can buy just the box controller? I've got the ribbon and module already but want to use the ribbon with another rig. Neil Sent from my iPhone

As we offer both parts also separately you should be able to order it from each of our dealers (I'd try SchneidersLaden in Berlin).
Maybe they will have to order it separately for you if the do not want to cut the complete set.

Just to check - it is another ribbon controller not the module that you need? I think I do too. I bought my ribbon controller and module secondhand and the ribbon controller is so hard that to get a pressure signal you have to virtually stand in the thing - well a handstand on one finger anyhow :-) And in that position I found it impossible to do vibrato. But I need to know - if I buy another ribbon, are all the modules the same? ie compatible with a new ribbon controller? I think I read that later ribbons had a softer touch anyhow.

We have a store here in Toronto (and head office in Montreal) called Moog Audio. I have ordered many things from them lately (they sell a lot of modular gear and synthesizers) and recently added the Doepfer modules so I decided to try ordering from them instead of Martin this time. But I have a feeling they just in turn place the order with Martin so there probably isn't any difference. Either way, it seems to be taking a long time. Scott

I asked Moog Audio. This is their reply: Apologies for the wait, we just received this item back in stock yesterday at our Toronto location and are expecting to have your order shipped out tomorrow afternoon. Hmmm. What an amazing coincidence! They very day I asked, it was suddenly in stock! Well, I'll believe it when I see it. Thanks Scott
