Here is the first update going forward with MOTM
3.0 :)
KITS
====
The first order of business is to ship out the
entire kit backlog. This will take ~ 2 weeks. Most of that time is making up ~ 9
MOTM-480 kits. Most of the other kits I have or will make up very soon (next 3
days).
EXTRA KITS
=========
If there are any leftover full kits, I will place
them in the cart. I will then announce they are there. They will ship within 48
hours on receipt of order.
POSTAGE
========
Postage is going up this week. All orders in the
backlog will ship at the old postage rate. New orders will reflect an increase
in postage.
ASSEMBLED
==========
Once the kits are 100% shipped, I will start
shipping the assembled backlog. I am having additional tech help for doing this.
As of today, there are 177 assembled modules in the backlog. That is a lot to
do. On a 'good day' I can build and ship 5-8 depending on what they are. So,
it's going to take a bit but I am on MOTM *full time* for several months at
least. The goal is that the backlog is 100% shipped by May 1, when BrideChamber
takes over. I do not see this being a problem.
NEW 5U
=======
Yes, both SMT refreshes and new designs (like the
Morphing Terrarium and a super Cloud Generator) are in the pipeline. I am going
to put over $20,000 of R&D money into starting over with MOTM, to correct
the delivery issue and have new modules to play with. I am not going to address
the thru-hole DIY market. CGS and YSynth, current MOTM designs and other may do
so. I will focus on modules you can order on Monday and play them on Friday. In
the same week. Of the same YEAR (cough).
