With some delay (not to be mixed up with the analog delay module :-) the
free cables will be available even from our distributors as it is valid for
new orders only. It's a short-term decision we made just yesterday. For the
modules that are now in stock at our distributors they don't have these free
cables available. But we will add some of these cables to the next
consignments that go to our distributors.

Best wishes
Dieter Doepfer

> A lot of our suppliers announced significant price increases or have

> We will have to re-calculate our prices and I expect price increases in

> But there are also some good news:
>
> We still have many patch cords from earlier production series in stock.
