PLAN B analog blog

First, an important announcement -  the Noisebug booth 6108 is on the
main hall this year in the vicinity of Moog and Motu.

Sometime this week I will be posting some details on what we'll be
showing pmn the Plan B Analog Blog (go to www.ear-group.net to sign
up):  The Models 21C, 30, 30A and 32 and the big move into cases and
systems.  In brief, there are two different 'cases'  - the Ringer,  a
single row rack frame offering a low-cost solution to a previously
expensive expansion requirement, and the Model Zero, which is the same
three row Zero Halibuton case used by NIN with some significant
improvements, including power saving modes and the option of expanding
it to six rows.  The production units will be gun metal gray.  A photo
has been posted in the PB Analog Blog.

The Performance System, which has it's own case not unlike the Doepfer
portable although two rows of 102 HP and eight inches deep is our fist
venture into the systems arena and will also be on display and
operational at the show 

To support the Ringer, the Zero and the PS we're introducing an
external power system which utilizes two high-grade second party
switching supplies as it's engine.  The supplies are audio grade and
protected to the point that key'd power connectors on the bus will not
be required...the PSU will shut itself off instantly if a module is
installed backwards.

Again, when my schedule allows I will be posting more details on all
this, including photos.  Please grant me patience with this and in
getting back with anyone who may need to contact me as I'm deep into
Namm hell at present and time away to post is minimal.

Thanks again and I look forward to seeing you all at the show!
