MOTM

I had one Radio Shack cable fail after three days. Yes, some of them are crap. 
The Y-cables seem a bit better made. However, it's those other splitter devices 
I'm saying are the most useful, and they aren't cables at all. They're plastic 
adapters with male/female connectors on them. There is not much that can fail 
there. I've been using them since I've had my MOTM with zero problems. Just 
having a handful of them sitting ontop of a modular doesn't cause major 
disorder. People have different patching styles. But for many people, patches 
that use fewer cables reducing clutter and allow banana plug type daisy 
chaining is a nice advantage.

In fact I'm thinking about putting in a CV/Gate bus like John Mitchell did on 
his Synth.com. That would reduce more cable mess in a patch. I wish that were 
built into the MOTM from the start.
