Hello Eric, thank you for your kind words. Unfortunately I don't have a list that tells the release date of each module. I would have to comb through my records to generate such a list. But that's a very time consuming process. I'll see if I have time some day to do this. The very first modules were released end of 1995/early in 1996 and included these modules: A-110, A-114, A-115, A-116, A-118, A-119, A-120, A-121, A-122, A-123, A-125, A-128, A-130, A-131, A-138a/b, A-140, A-145, A-148, A-150, A-160, A-161, A-162, A-170, A175, A-180, A-190. Some of the first basic modules were nothing but the corresponding circuits of the MS-404 (e.g. A-110, A-118, A-120, A-130, A-140, A-145).
