Hi JimHowell1970,
I am curious about your experiences with the Tesseract Modular Fader Step once you received it.
Ha, ha, yes, I have the same feeling/experience with Metropolis, I tested it at my local dealer, liked it but indeed so far haven't bought it. It's the steep price I guess and not sure for that price if one gets enough (i.e. doubting the price/performance).
Please keep us updated once you receive the Fader Step. Kind regards, Garfield.

Fader Step has arrived - I got the smd pre-soldered full kit - there is a lot of panel furniture - so build still took a while (maybe 2 hours*) - still need to program the atmega chip** - couldn't get my macbook pro to recognize the port to send the hex file to - but didn't spend long on it - I will try again tonight - maybe that the cable is non-data
- I also built 2 tex mix 4*mono channels and a tex mix master (all smd pre-soldered) total build time about 4 hours
** turns out the atmega chip comes pre-programmed - although not really mentioned in the build docs!!! everything else was very simple and documentation is pretty good apart from that - I will get back to trying to program mcus next week though (Blue Lantern Basics via a FTDI Friend)

Utility modules are the dull polish that makes the shiny modules actually shine!!!
