That would be amazing!

I'm planning on pairing mine with a my Field Kit, several contact mics, a few effects, and likely my euro. Definitely doing some pretty crazy ambient electroacoustic stuff as well

super happy to see things moving
but not expecting any deadlines or whatnot
It comes when it comes
and I'll be figuring things out from there


but yeah, feels like this might be the one thing to make it all fall into place.....

Re: Mescaline and Alter:
To all mescaline and alter people! We have had one hell of a time with our usual manufacturer. It has been an exercise in patience to be sure. My belief is now that they were ill prepared or incapable of taking on such a large order and simply took the job anyway. So we've all been sitting around twiddling our thumbs and doing what we can to prepare for such a huge quantity of boards.
FINALLY! we got all of the Mescaline boards in (yesterday) and we can now do our work. This is after getting FedEx tracking info in September. So there's a small fleet of folks in the Folktek headquarters now doing the work and prepping for shipment. Mescaline starts shipping real damn soon now. We'll probably send out 25-50 on Monday if some don't go out today.
Alter is another story. Where the hell are they?!? When I write to complain they say "very soon". I discovered that writing in all caps with many ??? and !!! and ?!?!? doesn't seem to make things go any faster. So again, an exercise in patience. And if you're waiting, thank you for joining in on that exercise.
The money is with the manufacturer and we have no choice but to wait. That said, we are changing manufacturers after this. It's simply put too much pressure on us and has caused problems due to the delay (they assured us the Mescaline boards would all be finished and with us mid-late July(!)).
Anyway, that's what's up. While it has been out of our hands (and still is in the case of Alter), Mescaline is now IN our hands!!! and we can do the work we've eagerly been waiting to do.
More to come.
cheers

I got a personalized email. :)

Dear Adam,

We received the remainder of the panels yesterday, finally, and have begun testing.
Our goal is to ship out the first 25 today.
We will be working everyday to get these out asap.
Please note, however, that we are shipping in the order of purchase and have nearly 600 to bring to completion.
I will write again with shipping notification and tracking info when yours is on it's way.
Sit tight.

All the Best,
Katie Greenhoot

Damn, that sounds nice.

Mine will take longer to reach Japan I guess. I was about number 120 or so (would have been far lower if that indiegogo had not started during the night here) so mine should ship soon enough hopefully...

That sounds pretty great, too bad I won't be getting mine for a while, as I'm definitely not in the first 100 or so.
