I'd like to wrap this up before year end if possible. Kindly putting the squeeze on you, Brian!

[dnigrin]

Me too Brian!!

You could always give us the first half of the manual personally instead of posting anything That'd keep us busy, I'm sure.

errrrr. I'm here
There's five of you guys currently out there that have the custom PCB set, I haven't forgot you
I have quite the workload at JBL and with BC Audio. I've been waiting to announce some exciting stuff on the website but the dates are not set yet. Basically my day job is being outsourced (has been ongoing for several months), and with a generous going away package it's the perfect opportunity for me to continue with my company full time. Engineering went from about 120 to 10 people! Looks like I might be there until the middle of next year. At any rate I've been ramping up, taking a lot of custom design work, and have some new things planned once the documentation for x0xi0 is complete. I plan to continue selling x0xi0 kits for the foreseeable future, and keep all parts on hand at all times. The custom enclosures for the custom PCB kits come back from silkscreen next week, so that is happening as well.

am i seeing on the pic what i think i'm seeing?
303i0 ?

anyway.. Please don't forget us, I know your other projects are probably a lot more exciting, but waiting 6 months so far to be able to finish a kit isn't fun at all for us.

On the other hand, you really put a lot of effort in your docs, they're the best build manuals I've ever read. So I can understand how time consuming it is to get it right.

Thanks for the update Brian - looking forward to the other stuff you've got in the pipeline, and hope it all works out with your job and stuff. But yes, as painful as it will surely be (I hate creating the documentation for my apps!), please give a push when you get some time to get those custom PCB instructions out the door... it will be greatly appreciated (by 5 of us, anyway!).

303i0 ?

no, it's all custom work. There's some custom 303 work, a couple of my 909 mod kit you're probably seeing (the extra pcb and see the extra holes in 909 panel). This is just my work in progress table, more stuff in waiting area. This is all stuff that's been in the queue. Point being, I'm still working 9-5 (wasn't supposed to be at this point), and lots of work, hence no documentation yet There is no new projects until x0xi0 is done.

bump.

Is that a TR-808 board in the bottom left corner of the pic?

[E:pp:ik]

I think it's an Acidlab Miami board.
