hello dieter,

maybe a lot of potential customers are waiting for the redesign,
which is mentioned on the a111/2 product page, before they order.
maybe i'm wrong but i would not expect many inquiries for a module
which is subject to change. i had the pleasure to try the first
prototype (thanks for that) and imho this vco is very cool,
something i will buy for sure if it will become available.
the a111/2 offers new possibilities unavailable on other vco's,
all at a reasonable price. if you run out of cem3340, then the
a111/2 would be a great substitute for the a111/1. during the last
few years a lot of new advanced vco's have been released for the
eurorack and for me that shows a demand for good vco's.
after all the vco is the main sound source and should not
be disregarded. i hope that the availability problem with the
cem3340 will be resolved, so that you can continue with the a111/1,
but i would also encourage you to keep on working on the a111/2.

best wishes
