Oh yeah, the words….

Heh, I just remembered that whole “I promise to write more” thing…

Okiedokie! First off,I guess I should clarify something: when I use the word “we”, I really mean “I”. I have philosophical issues about speaking/writing in first-person singular when addressing a largely theoretical audience. That’s the annoying thing about the internet – you never know if anyone is actually reading what you write.

For the most part, flight of harmony is one person. There is a theoretical second body but, for now, all the work is done by flight. (
“So”, you say, “what the hell has been going on recently?” Filling orders! The Plague Bearer has been quite a learning experience. Primarily that I REALLY low-balled the price. So it goes. These enclosures, although freaking cool, are very labor-intensive. However, I have some ideas for future enclosures that will raise the bar a little.

The concept of offering rack-mount versions has been brought to my attention recently. I think that is an intriguing idea! While my main focus is on the oft-neglected live-performing musician, offering studio versions makes damn good sense. To whit, I will work on some EuroRack format versions of the Infernal Noise Machine and version 2 of the Plague Bearer as soon as I am done with the current orders.

Another thing: Any and all comments are not only welcome, but desired! While I have received lots of interest and comments regarding both the I.N.M. and the Plague Bearer, I have only received ONE email regarding anything else. What do you really WANT? What is that complaint that you have had running in the back of your head, the one that sounds like “why hasn’t anyone made…”, or “That’s great, but it should do…”, or even “What the hell?” I highly suggest that everyone should read the manifesto on Deviant Synth. That should give you an idea as to what I am talking about.

Anyway, thanks for all the support! I hope we can all work together on pushing the boundaries of music to unforeseen levels!
