I don't think they're a poorly run company, at least I've never heard complaints about them in the past. I do think this was a poorly managed project, but it probably shouldn't have been a surprise; they're used to small run fairly custom stuff, not mass market large runs like this.
Yeah it's probably a lot easier to ship an ornate piezo enclosure with a reverb inside it than something like this.

By different place, do you mean your soldering station?
Jk, but for real, I'm still excited for mine to ship. I love zoning out to drones, so theoretically, it should be perfect for the kind of music I make at home.
I contacted them after hearing about people having shipping/packing issues and they got back to me :
"We have been doing damage control on things like broken panels due to insufficient packing inside the Mescaline box itself.
These problems have been resolved and won't be a concern for the safety of yours, which will go out Monday or Tuesday. "
Annoying for those who had the problems but at least they've learned from their initial mistake. Reaaaally looking forward to receiving mine. This will make it even easier for me not to get a bigger modular (which is exactly what I'm doing by getting it, but kinda sideways).
Hi from France, First post here
Received my Mescaline on friday (order#63), two boards are broken "Mental" has a desoldered cap and "Channel" has a broken capacitor pad (litteraly ripped of the board)
I don't even try to power up the Mescaline!
I have fast contact with Katie from Folkek, they will send two replacement module along with a return label for the damaged module.
French customs take me 100€ for tax fees
Usually I live vicariously through other people's gear and feel 'excitement' or even "happy" for them. This thread is the first time I have felt 'disappointment' through others. Like, it's emotionally effecting me and I didn't even 1. Express interest and 2. Order this thing. Sorry guys :sad:This is like some SENSE 8 shit.
