I do appreciate everyone's comments. Many thanks. It appears that: a) yellow panels are overwhelmingly acceptable. So our Euro panels will be yellow. b) the response has been so rabidly positive that I won't worry so much about power-supply issues. Some of the planned modules will need additional +5v from an internal power supply, and some will run off the internal +-12v only. Our dealers tell me that this will not be a problem for serious customers. Having an external wall-wart was not favorably looked upon, so customers will be advised to add +5 supplies to their existing cabinets. c) the modules will have space on their PCBs for either Doepfer 16-pin (or 10 pin if +5 is not needed) power connectors, with polarity protection. They will also accept Blacet-style power connectors for future Frac use, with a suitable Frac panel. d) Those people who demand Dotcom or MOTM panels are advised to contact Scott at bridechamber.com. He has been offering a MOTM version of our TM-1 for some time now, and can offer other TMs if the demand is there. Thanks again, it will be several months before the first module is ready for demonstration. I'm really, really busy now, backed up with orders for existing gear---primarily due to a very positive review of our S-1000 synth in SOUND ON SOUND.
