Current news
Look - a post!
Okiedokie, here's the current news:
Plague Bearer Modules - The panels came in last weekend. Good news: they look pretty nice. Bad news: There was a file conversion error which shifted some of the graphics a little. Spoot. I have to take the blame for this one, since the elementary rule of work sourcing is: Do as much as possible before handing off the project to a vendor, NEVER make them do any more than absolutely necessary. And always pay attention when viewing proofs. Heh.
So, The panels are still usable, and the error is very slight - just enough for me to have to mount one or two pots off of the PCB - so I'm going to discount this batch a tad. I should have one built and a picture up later this week.
INM - This is actually amusing. A while back, I accidentally told someone that the INM was available, and they bought one. So I've been working on that. It's almost finished - here's a rendering of the front panel - and I have to say it turned out better than I had hoped. This thing is a blast!
This unit, however, is a one-off unit. I don't have enough joysticks to offer version 1, and the wiring takes AGES! You can't see it in the rendering but the jacks are on the back panel - 7 CV, 1 external in, 1 out, fuse, power jack & switch. I'll post more once I've worked out the v2. Which leads to:
Errata - If you get curious, I occasionally post random unofficial/not-directly-business-related items and other jabber on the f(h) MySpace page. You can see a picture of the inside of the INM showing the wiring on there. Drop by and say something!
Regarding the aforementioned joysticks: I'm actually looking into distributing this style (for which I have been searching for years)and am waiting on the manufacturer for the pricing structure. These are the old-style joysticks that can be PCB mounted and have a full 90° travel range, as opposed to the more common 45° or 60°. If there is anyone else that is seriously interested in joining this venture, please contact me. I would like to make this a co-op venture if there are enough interested parties.
