In appreciation of MOTM design quality

2001-12-10 by mate_stubb

Not to start a jihad with the dot commers but...

I've been noticing more and more issues creeping up with dot com 
users, including sequencer output voltages drifting, octave switches 
not calibrated in-tune, power supplies humming, panel flexing, 
keyboard velocity output resolution problems, reports of excess noise 
in filters unless they are relocated...

Now MOTM is not perfect (the 300 soft sync STILL doesn't work as well 
as E-MU's!), but I have NEVER had any issues whatsoever with system 
noise or hum or drift. Ever.

There are some who pooh-pooh the MOTM design philosophy as 'gold-
plating toothpicks', but apparently sometimes you DO get what you pay 
for.

So I just wanted to thank Paul publicly for remaining true to his 
vision (while giving us all a chance to voice our own design 
opinions), and state that I'd rather have a trickle of superb modules 
than a torrent of so-so ones. There. I feel better.
