Well, I am getting no answers to my private e-mail, so here goes in
public.....

Brice,  What is going on?  We have a right to know because you have
been paid.  If you look at the past e-mails, people are asking for
information.  I'm not talking about lame, short answers like "things
are going faster", or "not long now"  How much effort does it take to
fire up the e-mail and send out soemthing like....

"Well, progress was slow this week.  But, I have the last 20 modules
approximately 55% done.  At the current rate, I hope tp finish by
"fill in the date."

Since I spoke up last time about what people wanted to hear, now I am
getting the e-mails asking me what I know.

Come on buddy.  We stepped out on faith and fronted you the money to
make this project a reality.  The very least you can do for people
who have been wating almost a year is to give us an occasional decent
update.

I understnd delays and problems.  But, I cannot understand the lack
of communication.

well said that man!

i don't think we're being unreasonable asking for a little communication.

I have waited, rather patiently, I think, for nearly a year.  At this 
point I am going to have to concur with Larry and ask the same 
question.

Late last April (two months after I paid), I was told in reply to my 
inquiry regarding shipping dates that there were twelve modules ahead 
of my order, and that they were being built at an approximate rate of 
five per month.  Nine months later, still nothing.  Assuming (and it 
does not appear to be a safe assumption at this point) that mine's 
next, that works out to about one and one-third modules per month.  
I'm no electronics whiz by any stretch of the imagination, but even 
with my day job, family, and everything else I'm faster than *that*.

There are a lot of us here who are waiting to recieve something for 
our money other than widely-spaced excuses.

Larry,

I am about 20% completed on all the remaining modules.  Progress has been 
slow for many reasons... but progress is being made.  I know everyone has 
been extremely patient... and I thank everyone for that.  Progress IS being 
made... although slowly.  Like I said in a previous post, I'm working on ALL 
the modules at the same time now.  All the diodes, then all the 1k 
resistors, etc.  Once the boards are populated and soldered, all the 
"partials" will ship followed closely by all the remaining complete modules. 
I've learned quite a lesson here... and will never repeat what I've done 
this time.

If anyone has any doubts about my finishing these modules... please don't. 
I will get them finished and shipped.  I just wish I had done things 
differently...

More later..

Best regards,
Brice

As a side note.... I have two people coming over the next two Sundays to 
help me finish stuffing parts.  So, progress should speed up rapidly now. 
There's more to it (why it's taking so long)... and I'll fill in the details 
as I can.

More later... late for work...

Hang in there, Brice. I know it has been a long time for many of us, but 
I am confident that you will have product for every one that ordered.

Thanks Scott.  Yes, everyone who ordered already has a module waiting
 here.  They are just in parts... waiting to be finished.  This coming
Sunday I'm having a "PSIM-1 building gathering"... and hope to make
*significant* progress.  I'll update everyone on the progress made at
that point.  

These aren't mystery modules or something that you paid for that
doesn't exist.  Every part for every module ordered is sitting in
front of me right now.  All the boards (partially populated) are
neatly arranged in anti-static trays (I think Western Digital ships
their OEM hard drives in these or something like that) as I stuff
parts and move on to the next.  It's not quite an assembly line... but
doing one part on all the boards before moving on to the next does
make it more manageable.  Yes, it was an overwhelming task.  As I look
back at how little progress has been made in the last months... I do
wonder how I could have done it better.  

Those that already have them have used them in remarkable ways that in
the beginning I couldn't even have imagined.  I really look forward to
the creations of those of you still waiting.  

When all the modules are completed and shipped, I'll write up an
explanation of everything that has happened from concept through
completion of this batch.  There may be some of you interested in
knowing the details... others I'm sure won't care.  A lot has happened
in my life since the beginning of this project.  Many changes have
taken place and I wake up each and every morning wishing I could spend
the entire day working on finishing the modules.  My life was turned
upside down and those of you still waiting on your PSIM-1 were caught
in the middle.  I never intended for that to happen.

I'll be working as hard as I can to get them all finished and shipped
as quickly as possible.  I'll try better at communicating progress as
it is made.  Sometimes it's hard to say what is going on.  I've never
been good at letting my personal life enter a public forum.  I'm just
one guy who had a dream... and WILL see it through to completion.

Take care...

And after Doug gets his if anyone else wants to bail out on theirs, 
I'm next. Hooray for Brice for getting in over his head, and props 
to all who are patient. Strikes me nothing moves to a higher level 
without a similiar situation percolating.
my 2cents, and I'll pony up the rest when someone offers to sell me 
their place on the waiting list.

Brice, Can you bring us up-to-date on progress since and including
"Super Sunday."

Thanks

Larry (and everyone else),

Sorry for the delay in replying.  I missed the message and haven't had
time to weed through all the emails (yes, I get over 1,000 spam
messages a day to my primary email address).  Anyway, "Super Sunday"
has actually been three (3) super Sundays so far.  All of the boards
are about 80% populated with only a few components remaining to be
stuffed.  This last Sunday we made the most progress so far.  The
prior two Sundays I was "out" with both the flu and a sinus infection.
 I was on some pretty strong antibiotics but finally kicked it.  I
missed work for a week... but there was no way I could build anything
during that time.  (I work with computers every day and if any of you
know what an Intel Prescot is... I now know what they feel like.  With
a temp of 104 deg. F... I needed a larger heatsink!  hehe)  But, like
I said, last Sunday we made a lot more progress and I hope to be
firing up the soldering iron shortly.  I'm making a little progress
every night, but by the time I get home around 8 PM, I'm already
exhausted and can not afford to make mistakes because I'm tired.

Again, I'll be shipping all the partials as soon as they are ready. I
*will not* compromise anything as far as testing goes to get them
shipped faster.  Each module takes at least one full hour of testing
before I'll let it go out the door.  If I wouldn't want it in my
system... it's not going out the door until it's 100% perfect.  I know
I want to get them shipped as quickly as possible (just as everyone
who has waited so patiently wants to get them as soon as possible),
but I'm not going to take shortcuts when it comes to the final
testing.  The fully assembled modules will then be finished... again,
all at once.  All the panels are already populated with jacks and
switches.  It shouldn't take more than a couple days to get them
wired, tested, and ready to ship.  We are nearing the end of this
batch and I'm really getting excited.  I *never* intended for it to
take this long.  For that, I am sorry.  I've learned a LOT of
important lessons here and won't be making the same mistakes twice. 
Yes, I plan on offering another batch of PSIM-1 modules... but they
will be going through a slight redesign to make manufacturing easier
(more details on that later once all these have shipped).  I haven't
given up on the plans for a MIDI interface and a SpeakJet module...
but these remaining PSIM-1 modules have to be finished and shipped
before I will even think about the add-on modules.  Also, I ran across
an article in a recent issues of "Circuit Cellar" magazine that
outlines interfacing a microcontroller to flash storage devices (as in
SD cards).  No promises... but we may have a way to *store* programs
on flash cards (or possibly a USB drive) if I can come up with a way
to interface a bootloader to the Hitachi H8.  I know one PSIM-1 can
program another PSIM-1 (yes, it really can)... so a new module that
stores hundreds of programs for the PSIM-1 isn't out of the question.
 That's about all the thought I've put into it so far... but there is
a glance at the future of where SynthModules is headed.  I'm also
sitting here with 150 LCD displays... and need to figure out something
to do with them.  Anyone have a suggestion?  :)

By the way, I have two completed PSIM-1 modules here already that I'm
using as "templates"... so two of you out there will be getting
modules dated much earlier than these.  Consider those special modules
as they have been through extensive testing and used as templates for
a lot of these modules.

Another update, I will not be able to attend the AHMW 2005 gathering
on March 26th, 2005 due to my work schedule.  I can only get one
Saturday off each month (if that... as I haven't had a Saturday off in
four months) and this Saturday I have to attend my wife's
grandmother's funeral.  So, while you are all enjoying the greatest
gathering of the best bunch of people with the most incredible analog
synth gear in the world... I'll be working.  :(  If someone could
please take lots of photos and maybe record some live sounds for me
I'd appreciate it.  I've looked forward to this for the last twelve
months... and then at the last minute, had to change my plans.

More details about AHMW 2005 can be found here:
http://www.ph.k12.in.us/~drew/ahmw/

Take care everyone... I'll keep in touch with more regular updates. 
Right now, I'm still finishing up stuffing parts.  I'll let you all
know when that's done and I'm onto soldering, cleaning, testing, etc.
 I plan on uploading a photo of all the completed boards together. 
It's already quite a site.

Again... thank you *ALL* for your patience with me on this.  As I'm
sure anyone who already has a PSIM-1 can/will tell you... it's worth
the wait.  I just really wish I could have gotten them out faster.

Best regards,
Brice

Thanks Brice.  I think this is the kind of update that people like to
hear.  A good appraisal of the current situation.  Certainly we all
appreicate you unwillingness to shortcut.

I'm sorry to hear of your family loss.  And, it does steal away
something you have been looking forward to.  But, family always comes
first.

I'm sure we would all appreciate it if you can send something out for
us to hang our hats on again in the not too distant future.

I will be sure to take plenty of photos at AHMW.

On the concept of a module that could be used adjacent to the PSIM-1
for storage of programs, I say fantastic if that can be made to work.
 And, I could live with a USB option too.  My current PC does not
even have a serial port.  So, I will need one of those USB to serial
adapters for my programming anyhow.  And, the portable USB storage
devices are getting damn cheap.  Keep thinking along those lines.

Hey Brice,

Thanks for the update!

Did you get my private email to you about me taking over a slot in the
queue?  Just wanted to formalize it with you before I send my money
off...

Brice,  It has been 5 weeks since the last word of any kind about 
progress.  The update is shown below.  At that time, all boards 
were "80% populated" and "all front panels were complete" with jacks 
and such.

What has been the progress since the message below?  And, don't you 
think that 5 weeks is just a little unreasonable as far as taking 2 
minutes to stop at your PC to give us even one word about progress?  
I do.

Agreed.

I have been a staunch supporter of Brice, because I know how easily one 
can burn-out when trying to produce the same thing over and over. And I 
have posted email of support and encouragement over the last year.

That said, however, I am becoming increasingly disappointed in the lack 
of communication on this matter. I would prefer to have and update every 
two weeks or so, even if it is "No progress was made this week because..."

Get with it Brice. You are losing your supporters.
