MOTM

I am in the process of kitting up 30 MOTM-300 VCO sets. This will take me
until
Thursday (it's about 7,200 individual parts). I will then ship everyone's
outstanding orders.
(Yes, Gur, even yours!)

I will be out of the office the entire week of the 23rd. However, assuming
the new laptop
arrives and is functional (I hate computers) I should be able to get/send
email. At the least,
the laptop has enought umph to run SPICE and the pcb layout software.

I will not be able to start the '440 filter layout until I get back. But I
will have the front panels finished,
which is usually the pacing item. So the kitting should go quicker.

If you are not a subscriber, *please* place orders (or if you want more than
1 in your subscription) by
Jan 28th. This will let me gauge the magnitude of the kitting process. This
then gets you kits *sooner*.

Everyone but John S. should have received your '320 subscription (John: it's
shipping tomorrow!) If
not, let me know.

It is looking like 2000 is the Year of the Modular. MOTM has raised
awareness: Serge is actually working on a
website, Blacet is ramping up new kits, Enport is in the 411 section of this
month's Keyboard (boo hiss), Nord
is working on a new system (bigger boo & hiss) and there is some buzz that
Dr. Bob has been seen with patchcords
draped around his neck (sigh).

But not to dispair: as stated earlier there are plans for 14 new modules in
'00, *not counting* the sequencer. Hopefully,
the seq will see the light of day in '00. This will depend on the non-MOTM
demands on my time.

I also plan more website goodies and print ads in MIX, Keybaord and
Electronic Musician, and SOS still is waiting
for me to send a review unit to London.

I suppose competition was bound to happen, it just looks like sooner than
expected. But as far as I know, no one
is going after the "high-end" MOTM world except Technosaurus, and they are
priced way over me so I'm not
too worried about them for now.

I am amazed every day by your loyal support of my "little hobby": module
#800 will ship within 10 days, and customer #100
is expected by the end of the month! The day I started, I told my wife that
150 modules *total* would be a small victory.
Now I'm going for 5,000!

Paul,

Consider this my order for 2 MOTM-440 kits. I'll be cashing in my Brownie,
er MOTM points for them.
