I will try and have them out soon..

I have finished two of the boards and just need to test to make sure everything is A-ok, I think they turned out looking great and assembly was really easy.

thank you for the update.
unfortunately the photobucket site is blocked by my companies internet software, so i can't see the picture right now. however you do a great job, i believe.
thank you for your efforts, especially the part sourcing for the kids in order to provide the fitting packages for the PCB... thumright

UPDATE:

Kokoon and Norman are correct, I just finished printing all the shipping labels and packing up all the boards and kits.

All orders are shipping out all over the world tomorrow morning Pacific Stantard Time!!! I have some kits and boards left if anyone wants one. I'll keep the price of the board at $38 but I have to bump the price on the parts kit to $100 without the board, they ended up costing me much more than I anticipated and of course took way more time.

I look forward to seeing and hearing what everyone builds.

Please check your IC’s as soon as you get your kits and let me know if you have MN3102 or MN3101 chips. If you have MN3101’s they will not work.

My supplier sent me the wrong chips in one of the tubes and about half of you will have the wrong chips.

If you have the wrong chips I will give you a couple of options.
1. I will send you the correct chips.
2. I will credit you $5.50 (they are $2.75 each at Small Bear)

I would of course appreciate getting the MN3101’s back but it’s really not necessary.

I have already ordered a batch of the correct chips from Japan but they will take a few days to get here. Wish I would have found this out yesterday when all the kits were still at my house:(

Got my kit today.

You have outdone yourself, neatly packaged, documents on nice heavy paper, and it appears without my magnifying glass that I got the right chips.

I almost wish I wasnt leaving town this weekend, I want to build this thing NOW.

Thanks Josh, whats next?????

Wow, this is a great piece of work. I'm sorry that I didn't put in for a pair. I'll definitely get another one if you do a second run! Spent the afternoon filling it with resistors... Cool

I have been asked how to tune this up without a scope and with the dual delay lines it could be tough to do by ear.

I think if you are tuning by ear it would be best to do so one delay line at a time by removing the op-amp for the side you are not tuning. Adjust the trimpot for the least distortion and you should be good to go.

Received my kit today - very nice looking it is too! Very Happy

Got the wrong clocking chips though Crying or Very sad

Just a quick word about the USPS online tracking - it doesn't work reliably. In this instance, the tracking has never updated and still shows the packet as not yet received into the US Post system....

Wow, this looks like another great project on E-M that slipped by me! Is there any chance you have one (or two) left over? I would also be interested in a set of chips.

If none are left, put my vote in for 2 if you do a 2nd run!

Regards,
Phil

Very Happy Very Happy Very Happy Hey! My boards and chips arrived today! Nice package John, doc's are really nice, as are the boards! Love the NE570 chips! This should be a very cool project!

So I am wondering what others are doing in regard to packaging. Stomp box or synth module? I am planning on maybe one of each. Anyone do something REALLY cool? I'd love to see what others have cooked up!

Phil
