"Here is the framework to a purple Mission9 case by Monorocket. This 3-row Eurorack case should be delivered by the end of the week. The price is $450 retail and they are available in a variety of tolex options. Contact us for more details. An even smaller case is shown in the background. LINK."
via Matt on the AH list: "The first 20 were delivered monday and have been shipped out. If you think you were one of those first 20 orders and haven't heard anything, would be worth calling."
via WD: "I received mine (a CV version) yesterday.
First impressions...
Soundwise, it is a SEM. Not just SEM-like. It's a SEM. And I say that after having set-up identical patches on my original SEM and the new one.
Appearancewise, the panel is identical enough to the original that it could be a drop-in replacement for an old SEM (in an 2/4/8-Voice), although the logo, obviously, is different, and the font is different and slightly larger. And, except for the OSC and NOTCH controls, the knobs are identical to the original in appearance--but, even the OSC and NOTCH knobs have the same "SEM look" to them. As for the comparison between the new and old SEM with regard to dimensions, the case is about an inch shorter in height, and the sides/bottom are black rather than red-brown. So, sitting side-by-side, old and new SEMs are not identical.
Buildwise, the new SEM is clearly of quality construction. Smooth, responsive controls.
In the new SEM, power is pumped via an external power supply, rather than having the internal PSU of the original SEM.
Okay, no more writing here. I'm going to play with the new SEM a bit more...
Cheers. WD"

"The ARP is in perfect working order and has just been serviced and re-calibrated by Analogics in Ohio and will ship directly from there (www.analogics.org). The synth has been converted for midi control, also by Analogis, with a Kenton midi kit. The manual for the midi kit is available at http://www.kentonuk.com/download/kitmanuals.shtml
via this auction "This 100M has custom red oak side panels (instead of the original particle board) The side panels make the synthesizer look stunning and make it very stable. All of the mounting hardware has been replaced with torx screws and locknuts mounted inside the chassis, giving a firm mount to the modules and the side panels. If you've seen a stock 100M you might know how flimsy the original mounting hardware was.
This system has the standard "D-Set" of modules (112 dual VCO, 121 dual VCF, 130 dual VCA, 140 dual env+LFO, 150 s+h, noise, lfo) It is Japanese voltage (100V), but I will include a voltage transformer. Comes with ten standard Roland patch cables and the module power cables."

I started this piece over 2 months ago but, faced with the difficulty of telling the story I envisioned for it and not being particularly happy with all of the music, I kept putting it off. A couple days ago I decided to just go ahead and finish it the best I could with the smallest amount of time and money I could tolerate.
I have a few ideas as to what the video now represents to me but if you happen to be inspired, please write down your story line, scenario or thought in the comments section, I would love to read what think!
Thank you for watching, rating and commenting on my videos!"
