My issue is a little different.It looks like the culprit is the slots in the long edges of the top panel. They don't seem to be deep enough to match the thickness of the acrylic. It's more obvious along the front edge, but it's there at the back, to…
@julian cool
Re. init sound: Ah, sorry. Should have looked at the buglist.
Re. the enclosure: It's weird, I've made quite a few projects using Frank's cases, and never had such problems getting them together- none of the holes seemed to line up as …
To be fair, it does clearly say in the Assembly Instructions that you should install the SD card, properly formatted, with the correct files on it before starting, so maybe that last point doesn't really need addressing. I'm just too impatient, I th…
Just finished my build yesterday. Wish I'd read Nasrudin's tips now, though!
Just to echo what Nasrudin says: the LEDs for the voice selector buttons should definitely be moved a little further away from the switches in a future revision of the boar…
@julian kinda glad it wasn't just me that screwed up my order in the mad scramble. Sorry you've had to deal with the consequences though. Mind you, it's a small price to pay for selling all the units within minutes....

@julian my order for 2x full kits is 56. I also managed to order the enclosure (order #160), later. I guess maybe I was seeing a locally cached version of the page, after the server came back online, which is why it said they were sold out. Anyway, …
derkollo I wouldn't say it worked 'perfectly'.... the entire site seems to have gone down for a while. I ended up ordering two complete kits, and didn't notice until it was too late. It's user-error on my part for not checking, but at no point did I…
Spotted a couple of 'TRANSIENT GENERATOT's on page 9. Looks like you copy-pasted the box, because the same error occurs twice. Might be worth checking for the same thing elsewhere.
Sorry to bring up typos. It looks exciting. Wonder if I will manage …
@julian ah, just managed to login on my iPad/Safari (not been able to before) using the 2nd link in your post there. Maybe I was just trying to login to the wrong page. I'd have thought both URLs would resolve to the same pages, though...
Still a m…
Looks great! Think I'll wait for the first non-pioneer kit batch. I've just bought an Ableton Push, so shouldn't really spend any more on kit for a while..
Great work,

@MicMicMan 'doldrums' has quite negative associations, in the UK, anyway. We talk about something being 'in the doldrums', meaning it's not doing well, or doing very badly, in fact.
Mind you, I have a box of Spunk (Danish fruit sweets), so some word…
Thanks for the rapid reply, Julian. I'd probably go for the standard parts, to be honest, just wondered...Without velocity-sensitivity, live triggering buttons are a bit limited. Having said that, the buttons on the Monomachine/Machinedrum aren't ve…
Here's a quick question- may have been covered before.
Will some of the buttons allow for manual triggering of the drum sounds? If so, how robust do you envisage the tact switches being under long-term use/abuse?

The basic signal-flow looks more complicated than any of your drum synth types, but there is only the single model. It's able to produce a wide variety of different sounds, though, including all the standard drum and percussion types, and even bass …
