'''MOTM''' is a modular synthesizer format originally produced by the American company [[Synthesis Technology]]. It was introduced by engineer [[Paul Schreiber]] in 1998. The modules available from MOTM form a complete system featuring oscillators, envelopes, VCAs, utility modules such as mixers and multiples, and numerous filter options based on classic circuits from Moog, Yamaha, Korg, and others.
The MOTM format established a standard for synthesizer modules, with a height of {{frac|8
MOTM modules share some details with the [[Synthesizers.com]] ("Dotcom" or ".
MOTM modules require ±15V power, delivered via a 4-pin MTA-156 connector. Some newer MOTM designs (such as the MOTM-650 and MOTM-730) include digital circuits that require an additional +5V and a 6-pin connector. MOTM power supplies and cases use a power distribution board with multiple connectors, and short cables with female MTA-156 connectors at each end are used to connect power to the modules. Small distribution boards (available from MOTM, Bridechamber, and STG Soundlabs) can be used to add Dotcom-compatible modules to systems that use MOTM power supplies (such as the MOTM-900 and MOTM-950).
