Despite having never thought about the economic realities of  
delivering any module, let alone something like a through-zero analog  
oscillator, I wonder if perhaps the premium price Cynthia is charging  
($650) shows that she has taken all of this into account? Or is that  
a normal price one would expect to pay for such a complex module with  
such a large panel and so much hardware?

This is not meant as a criticism in any way for Cynthia - anyone  
involved in using analog synthesizers knows that quality doesn't come  
cheap.
