i got into MOTM for related reasons - (1) nice big solid rolls-royce form factor (2) commitment to quality (3) kits. i attribute all the confidence i now have building stuff to the help i received from Charles and Paul and the MOTM community in general. as for what i'd be interested in buying in the future - - crazy new oscillator types courtesy AE. i always find analogue FM awkward to manage somehow (especially since i no longer have a ZO... sniff) and the 520 or a related module would make it a lot of fun. btw i did find it a little weird that the E340 thing arrived out of the blue and pushed the 520 out. - i'm always looking out for different filters. i always thought it weird that only Doepfer made a 303 filter module (the discontinued Oakley Superladder diode variant notwithstanding). it would have fit nicely in the MOTM range which is mostly vintage clones. - a real MOTM sequencer. a Moog 960 with the best of both worlds - analogue interface with digital assist for memories, MIDI maybe, etc... not that i can currently afford anything! :-S >I got into this MOTM hobby for 3 reasons: to build the best modular, to >learn electronics and synthesis, and for fun.
