Holiday Season shipping times
As usual I will be taking time off during the holiday season. This year the last day that I will be able to send overseas orders is 1st December, and for UK orders 8th December.
Shipping to all destinations will then commence on 22nd January 2024.
I will be able to take orders during the holiday season and any order placed will then go out on or shortly after 22nd January 2024.
MOTM format and Eurorack PCBs to be discontinued
After 24 years I have decided to discontinue my MOTM format 5U and Eurorack PCBs. What once provided a healthy income for both my wife and me to live on exclusively is now barely paying for the website. I have had a terrific run selling thousands of PCBs to people all over the world and for that we are truly grateful. I have learnt so many new things and met many great people on the way.
But it is now time to move onto other things. The market has changed and I'm approaching that age when I should be looking to do other things. I will continue to develop projects that interest me and I have several in the pipeline that I would like to offer for sale. This includes freestanding projects like the Synth-P and maybe some MU modules too.
Current board stocks will not, for the most part, be replenished once they have run out. However, if there is sufficient demand for one particular product, even recently discontinued items, then I should be able to manufacture more boards as a special order. Please e-mail me to register an interest in any discontinued boards.
The website will remain as it is for the time being. I will update it as boards become discontinued and new things become available. It is likely that I will completely revamp the whole site at some point. Any documentation will remain on the site for as long as possible.
