Wow. I want those! A Pan/Fade VCA and Envelope net would be wonderful. 
Really complex sounds can be made from lots of envelopes. A pan/x-fade 
module would get me the most excited though. A quadraphonic rotary 
fader would be sweet too: CV X + CV Y = *swooosh*

I imagine this has been broached before, but Paul, have you ever 
considered streamlining production with surface mount versions of the 
modules? I understand there are some issues one has to deal with when 
doing SMT, and some purists may complain about not being able to enjoy 
the pleasure of hand soldering their modules ;) However...

...producing your modules (even partially) in a SMT design could lower 
overall cost and reduce your workload, freeing up time to design more 
modules for us and expand the MOTM line ;) I see you're starting to 
already do this with your latest 5V line, and that makes a lot of 
sense. I personally would like to see more modules, and I imagine many 
here on this list would too.
