This lovely module has been underway for a while now and it has had some design changes and chip improvements along the way. We have now had our ‘golden prototype’ and we can start producing them. Everything was arranged to be in-house so we could start final assembly and testing Read more
Things are progressing and our Fenixes are flying out the door! At this point almost 40 of our Fenixes have flown out the door to their new owners. Quite a few have landed in the USA and Canada while one is in Singapore and another lives in Mumbai. Two have Read more
We have Fenixes on the shelf! 14 Fenix IVs are fully tested, calibrated and packed away waiting for us to finish the software and the manual. 4 Fenixes need one more round of calibration and then they too can be packed away. We are already in touch with the first Read more
So many rings and things and man the house is in chaos because IT IS HAPPENING! Closer and closer we get everyday to what we’ve been working towards for almost three years now: the FenixIV we envisioned, in your hands, making happy beep. Thanks to our lovely assembly houses and Read more
We are now IN PRODUCTION. So exciting! As I write this all the necessary PCB have been ordered, most boards and all their components are at our first assembly house and they have started. Some other boards and components have been ordered and are underway to our second assembly house. Read more
We have worked many times with PCBWay before and have visited their factory. They have made most of the insides of our modules (TUESDAY WOBBLER EDGECUTTER). We also have done some really big boards for FenixIV prototyping with them as they can go bigger than other board houses. This review Read more
Since our last blog boxes of led-button switches have arrived. As well as the necessary quantity of our signature yellow leds (with separate standoffs that SOMEONE is going to have to slide onto the LED legs), and the little screens that we use for our scope (IPS 240*240 LCD screens, Read more
Experiment board No 1 Our first experiment board is fully populated (1242 components) and fully functional. We used about 30/40 air wires on this board. Some are the results of copying-mistakes, somewhere we injected a chip in a signal path, while other air wires are design improvements based on being Read more
Our Tuesday is almost all together. Our beloved procedural sequencer module for the Eurorack system. We had the frontplates made in Holland and the electronics made in China, so we figured we would assemble it at home and add the nuts and knobs ourselves. The exciting journey of manufacturing usually Read more
