I'm hoping it'll clear customs without too much fuss! ...but it's a bit of an unknown quantity, definitely something to investigate before i start selling properly. edit: ooh you got some grey buttons for it..nice call, that's my favourite colour too, weirdly the hardest one to source in bulk?? Already stocked up on some black ones for future dark panels  |

mine needs to pass customs and hopefully that won't take too long nor cause any trouble. *fingerscrossed*

Already stocked up on some black ones for future dark panels well that is just how it is. You can not be responsible for other countries import rules / restrictions. I calculated it in from the beginning, so no problem. Was just better before Brexit :-). Grey buttons is cool! I still have almost only grey faceplates so that will be a perfect match. |

Already stocked up on some black ones for future dark panels I did! Nothing bulk here, just what I had left over when I took this madness in a more buchla-esque direction...  More fun today with the hamlet - it's great that. In my head I might one day alter the code to add my own pattern variations... I probably won't! It's wonderful thing - those waiting will love it! |

MikMo not sure which button colour you got, i picked them out at random, but I did keep the grey one for myself sorry!! (It was also the first one i made, therefore the shoddiest build  )
I started playing around with some script ideas last night, the europi library makes it pretty easy to handle the controls, screen etc. First on the list: a burst generator
About to order v1.1:
* Couple of little PCB routing amends * Moved bus connector a smidge for future Quickswap compatibility * Tiny tweak to the mounting holes - should fit case slightly better, and frontpanel screws should be symmetrical now * Frontpanels are 0.4mm wider (there was a bit too much gap before) * Extremely "1970s heavy metal" black panels!! * Black buttons for the black panels, blue for the while panels (well, i guess it could be a choice)
* Little bit more tolerance around the buttons to avoid them sticking

Mine should arrive today!!! (HYPE!!)  Customs update for EU peeps: was cleared in a few days in Belgium, extra cost was about €35, but this is ofc the absolute minimum for just handling + VAT on the shipping (didnt know it also applied on shipping costs haha, thanks BORIS  ). Anyways, i'm 100000% sure it will all be easily worth it after seeing that youtube videos on the latest EuroPi versions. |

Oh jeez that is a lot! What a pain  I’ll look at how some online marketfronts handle selling into europe, at least if it was included upfront somehow, then there wouldn’t be the surprise element. |

None of the first run available, but i’m gathering bits for the second run at the moment. 10 boards ordered, but one i’m building for myself, since there were a couple of amends to the pcb and i want to make sure it still works ok also i want a black one for myself |

My module was released by customs, finally. Will probably arrive next week. I should be spending my time on the horn anyway since exams are also next week.

Haven’t quite decided how to sell the next round - will probably be through a third party platform like Tindie or similar. Also, it’ll be kit form rather than pre-built; although i’m open to building them for people if they really don’t have soldering confidence/equipment, at a small extra cost. In short, no need to pre-pay, but i’ll make sure one has your name on it |

Good luck on tooting your own horn!  thank you. So far I already manage to pull of the three pieces by heart, which is a good thing, so I can let muscle memory kick in when the brain freezes. The solo piece will feature the AEmodular on backing track duties, at least a recording of it. Don't feel confident enough to patch the backdrop live at the exam, a recipe for disaster. |

I've been having a lovely time patching the hamlet into the oc for cascading sequence variations based around the europi. Get bored, push a button and repeat... It's a terrific core - my only want for it, which may already exist, is an internal clock.
