MOTM

OK, time to regroup after a VERY stressful last few days.

a) I'm sorry if I offended anyone about the SMT hollering. Just be aware that I 
am over-protective for a reason: $$$.
I'm about to commit a lot of time and $$$ on buying over $6500 of SMT parts 
(MIDI-CV, uSeq, Frac-Rack, etc)
and I suppose the timing was off.

So, let's all shrug it off and move forward.

b) I am sending off to the board shop tomorrow the MOTM-995 adapter board, which 
does 2 things:

.com modules added to MOTM systems
MOTM modules added to .com systems

it's ONLY for MOTM-950 supplies (or other +-15V, +5V) for powering .com as they 
need +5V
If you want to add a MOTM to a .com power harness, just plug into the MTA-100 
harness. I went
ahead and designated some connectors for this (even though they are all in 
parallel this tends to freak
out some folks). The price will be $29 assembled only and I will have them ready 
to ship around the 6th of Sept.

If you want to order now, use PayPal, the shipping is $5/order US and $9/order 
foreign. The boards are about 3.5 x 4.5 inches

c) About 1/3 of the sheet metal backlog will show up by this Friday so some back 
orders Paul H. has can go out.
I will be packing up some assembled modules this week to ship out, but in some 
cases I have to also
wait for sheet metal.

d) Robert Rich's hand surgery went "OK", it's was not a 100% success. The final 
result will not be known for 8-10 weeks
after scar tissue forms. He has an over-active "scar tissue generator" and this 
is the problem: the scar tissue 'sticks'
to the tendons, which need to move like a cable/pulley system. The hand doctor 
indicated he has like 3X the normal
amount.

e) I still have a couple of '960s to ship out. I will get these out by Friday. I 
am about out but will make 25 more when
the '995 gets built (uses same parts).

I'll still bit depressed over Bob Moog's death, I think I will listen to Wendy's 
"Clockwork Orange" soundtrack (her release, not the Warner one).
