I'd be more inclined to simply pull modules from your then preexisting 12wls to the then new 4 boat, and locate the 222 properly in the 12. Swapping modules inside the 200e is for the most part, very very easy. They are very well thought out internally. --- On Fri, 6/13/08, amnes

Ross, The description of the 222e on the Buchla website is pretty clear about the panel arrangements for the 222e. The spacial sensor goes on the top boat, with the tactile unit directly below it on the bottom boat. You would definitely not want the sensor unit on your extra 4 bo

Serge spec calls for a 5 volt gate. That said, there are some modules that just shoot a comparator to the positive rail and call it a gate, like the middle of a SSG. However, in the case of a TKB you would most likely have to mod it to send out a hotter gate. Mark --- In 200e@yah

Is this correct? I can't speak definitively on the 200e, but in the original 200, generally (not always!) trigger outputs are a diode hanging in space. That means that they can be plugged together as a passive OR. In other words they can all stack on an input. That is true of the
