MOTM

There hasn't been much about it "officially", but behind the scenes there has been 2 months of HW
and SW work.

Full details will come later (with all the other 500 series) on Dec. 1st (full web pages, demos,
ordering, etc). Here is a 'teaser':

a) It's a digital sequencer with both CV in and CV out. The uP is blazing fast, 5 MIPs (million
instructions/second). FLASH memory is used to store setups and sequencer data (no batteries).

b) the panel does not look like a traditional sequencer. The trade off was functions versus $400
worth of pots, LEDs and switches in a big panel. The MOTM-600 is 3U wide.

c) you can chain multiple MOTM-600s together via small ribbon cables at the rear.

d) it will take getting use to the 'fingering' to use it live. Just like a flute has different
fingering than a sax, the MOTM-600's panel has a different 'fingering' to say a Moog 960. But it
has about 65 MORE features than a Moog 960 :)

e) It is not a kit. It wll be fully assembled. The *bugetary*  price is $399. The *maximum* price
will be $499. I don't think I can get down below $359 due to parts cost.

I want the HW and SW to progress until mid-Nov until I start talking specifics, because certain
desires now in the spec (the SW/functional spec runs over 30 pages long) may be undoable do to
time/code space/timimg issues.

Sequencer 'traditionalists' may not warm up to the interface. But before you make your mind up,
wait for the details to emerge and I think you'll see the power lurking behind the panel.
