MOTM

Well, I don't have the actual date when I ordered my first motm modules,
but I know it was around this time last year.  I just wanted to thank Paul
S. for a great experience.  Assembling and using a modular is something
I've had at the back of my mind for many years, and my past year's
experience has sure been great!  Not only is the experience of generating
'noise' with a modular beyond what I expected, but, unexpectedly, it got
me into assembling electronic kits, which, if you had asked me a year ago,
I would have flatly told you I would never do (hopefully I'm much better
than my C- soldering grade of last Fall :-)). MOTM modules are excellent
and I intend to keep them for my lifetime.  I now have at least one
of each motm module (except 940 and 420 [I have an MS20], 820 on order),
and am looking forward to the next (yes, pan/fade).  Thanks, Paul!

Also, I would like to thank Tony Allgood, Larry Hendry, Dave Bradley
and John Blacet for a couple of their modules that I have assembled and
their assistance when I needed it.  And the Stooge panels are an excellent
example of collaborative work for that 'motm look.'

p.s. Possibly an interesting side note is that this semester the intro.
stat course I'm teaching is populated by mostly EE undergraduates.

It has been some experience for me, too. I've never written so many checks
with the word 'thousand' on them
before (a thousand for wire, a thousand for switches, etc etc).

This was my hope when I started: a 'universal' platform for modular synths
(well, as long as I
get the lion's share of the $$$ hee hee).

Use MOTM-101 to demo Gaussian processes, variance, 6-sigma, and Poisson
distribution :)
