@retoid
Maybe it’s more aesthetic than syntax, but FYI Follow and Location on Cold Mac are outputs but don’t have the gold rings on your design. Curious to see pictures of an assembled unit if anyone has links?

@adamplouff I’ll look into it but I don’t think there is a system for pre-orders on bigcartel.com This is all run out my home also, and space is a concern as well as some other issues pre-orders can cause.
At the moment I don’t feel very comfortable with pre-orders but I completely understand wanting it in order to save on shipping. Another concern is that most of these panels are limited run with a chance to be re-run if there is a large enough demand for it.

@Galapagoose Yeah I am aware of those two being outputs. There wasn’t enough room for the gold there. However something else could be done there to indicate they are outputs. I put in some new panels to be made last night and Cold Mac is one of them but I’ve requested a hold on Cold Mac to see if I can make a change before they get produced. Thank you.

Say no more. I run a business off of gumroad that is mostly digital but occasionally do physical products and I fully understand the issues with space. If preorders could help gauge interest and fund the manufacturing then great, but if it makes things more difficult then it should be avoided. thanks!

My BKM panels came today- so impressed. I adore the original Mannequins design but as someone with a mostly black make noise setup, this makes me very happy.

Can’t wait for the others to arrive! Mounted the Mangrove and Sisters already and WOW. May I ask where you got the large Make Noise Knobs from?

the white ones I got from Thonk I believe, the large ones I took from some extra make noise modules I have not currently in the case :stuck_out_tongue: I think I’d prefer them to be the large white cap ones anyway, so maybe time to place an order…

#69

Yeah, bought plenty of white ones form Thonk. Yes, I saw a picture of somewhere lately (here on lines) with white large ones. I’d love a couple of those!

Ooh, stoked to order a cold mac panel now that it’s ready.
I see that the voltage block is coming soon: are you still planning to also do the varigate 8+ at some point? :upside_down_face:

@n-So Nice! Great idea to add the Rogan knobs! Glad you like the panels :smiley:

@midilifestyle Yes, definitely still planning on adding the VG8+ also. The only reason it’s not currently listed on the shop as coming soon is because my product limit is reached and to add more I need to upgrade to the higher tier pricing. Which I plan to do once I have at least that many panels already manufactured.

Just another quick update about the panels. Currently I am working with a manufacturer in China and while they’re able to do a pretty decent job, I am having to set aside at least half of the stock I order, due to scratches, scuffs and flaws. So I am currently looking for another manufacturer who is able to offer higher quality control. This will delay future panels being added to the shop and I apologize for that. I’ll work to get more back into production asap.

Thank you all :slight_smile:

@retoid something I just noticed about my Just Friends panel which doesn’t bother me much but might others, not sure if it was intentional or not- on your panel the top label for the “shape/sound” switch is “cycle” (is “sound” on Mannequins panel)

@n-So Good catch! You’re absolutely right! I’ve corrected the mistake in the files, next batch will have “sound”, my apologies. It seems I could benefit from an extra set of eyes for proofing before going to production :smiley:

@adamplouff Wow nice! Thank you for sharing the photo!

I know this thread has been quiet for a good while. Just wanted to say that the panels look lovely @retoid and I’d love to know if there’s any possibility of a Black Ansible panel at some point in the future. :eyes:

Stay safe folks.

I should be able to get a Black Ansible made up, I’ll see what I can do.

is it a joke type thing? :sweat_smile:

This from the same group that produced a front panel with a sort of SS logo. Can’t tell if this is some kind of intensely misguided ironic humour or actual dog whistles at this point
