PLAN B analog blog

Peter,
I apologize the circumstances, but why don't you tell us those things
within this mailing list.
So all the people including your dealers will know about your particular 
circumstances
and they will wait until better times.
I know that some guys including mine are waiting for some ordered 
modules at SchneidersBuero.
I really could need a model 28 for some new sequences with multitrigger 
effects for a
production of a friend of mine, but finally I know after your answer 
that I have to do it otherwise.
So I will be patient and solve the problem by unusual ways, life goes on.
all the best
Axel
