MOTM

Just a quick update & schedule over the holiday season.

We will be closed from Friday, Dec. 15th until Monday, Jan. 8th. Very
little, if anything, will
be shipped during this time. I can *assure you* I'm not going NEAR the post
office after the 15th!!!!

I plan to spend these hours & hours breadboarding and CADing MOTM modules.
There may be some
kitting as the Feb. NAMM issue of Electronic Musician street-date gets
closer (NAMM is early,
so they are telling me around Jan. 14th). There is a nice MOTM review in
there :)

Currently, the focus is on backlog reduction. Excluding the '101, there are
93 kits in current backlog
along with 14 assembled modules. Right this very minute, it looks like the
'300 won't make it out
before Thanksgiving, but right after. Since there are more requests for
'320s and '820s, these will go out
ahead of the '300s.

I will be able to get an official 1U mult price quote right after
Thansgiving as well. I am having 100
built up. I'm not even bagging the screws, this is full turnkey. So, the
price I am expecting is $89, same
as the '940. The timetable depends on when Switchcraft ships my jacks. The
assembly house will take
about 10 days. Dec. shipment probably won't happen (they are closed the same
as I am).

Speaking of the lovely machine/paint shop, the 1U/2U blanks I will pick up
Monday. Seems everyone is at
a trade show all week.

If case everyone has forgotten, the modules planned (in no particular order)
are:

microVCO
AC/DC Mixer
SEM filter
dual VCA/Pan/Fade
Triple preamp (1U)
Envelope Follower/Compressor
VC'd Pulse Divider
some 1U utility modules (need a RM)
VC'd Phase Shifter (pretty complicated!)
delayed Vibrato

Suggestions for others are welcome! This list should keep me busy until
April-May. I want to do some more
vocal processing stuff as well.

Thanks for choosing MOTM, and being patient while I juggle all these balls
in the air! Onward to module
#2500!
