MOTM-650 shipping!!!
2006-03-30 by Paul Schreiber
After 2 1/2 *years* of blood, sweat and tears, the MOTM-650 has officially been released. Dave "Stooge Moe" Bradley has the honor of getting the first one (Robert Rich's is a hand-built prototype). I plan to ship at least 8 more tomorrow and 8 on Friday. The firmware has a "known bug list" that I will post tomorrow. If you have a unit on order, and you want to wait to get the next revision (no sooner than April 15th), please email me. If I *do not* hear otherwise, I will ship all MOTM-650s on order as Rev 1.0 as soon as I can build them up (it takes about 50min per unit). The bug list is not severe: Robert made *2* CDs with a list much longer than 1.0 has :) Remember, all bug fixes are free and flashed in over MIDI using the (for now) Windows utility. Thanks to my ace programmers at Synthcom (makers of the Europa mod for Jupiter 6s) and to PM Assembly (the folks that make the boards per the video). OK, back to work! Paul S.
