i know what you mean there, i have a pile of bits lying around that i need
to finish off - by the way congratulations to Larry, i plugged my 822 in and
it worked first time - to the extent that i currently really to bothered to
calibrate it (it sounds fine to my abused hearing)
just to clarify though - i view the Oakley pcbs as an addition, not an
alternative to my rig, and they readily fulfill one of my original aims,
which was to learn more about electronics - i'm quite prepared to modify my
Oakley modules heavily, whereas my MOTM stuff is sacred. i'm currently at
the stage where i've nearly filled two 15u x 11u cabinets - one MOTM, one
mainly Oakley. what happens when they're both full..? That's where the
system splits, and MOTM spills into cabinet #2, and my Oakley stuff goes
into cabinet #3. Paul isn't losing out on sales here
i'm sorry this might sound like a bit of a rant, it's not, but i'm just a
sad about the treatment that Tony A seems to have recieved over the last few
days. i think this is purely a matter between Paul & Tony, and that if there
is an issue, then they should contact each other privately & sort it out. as
Tony points out, there's bound to be some overlap on the most basic modules,
and a Bradley panel run for the Oakley Superladder would have been a bit
close to the bone for Paul. Anyway - you don't get Doepfer, Analogue
Solutions, etc etc doing this (or do you..?)

cheers
