It's very sad :(
I really want all those pedals too.
I've just been never able to justify it

Consider it an investment. You can flip them on tb or tgp in 3 years for twice the cash. Discontinued=mojo.

This does make it easier to justify
I almost wish I was some kind of exploitative jerk :lol:

Ken was running a sale last week, $60 off the Improbability Drive. Think it's still goin...

Looks like he's about to design a flanger as well which is exciting news.

I guess it makes sense to ditch the harder to build ones and keep the simpler dirt pedals which probably sell better anyway. I still need to pick up a Driving Notion so I'm glad that's staying.
Always found the Faye Sing mega appealing but never pulled the trigger because it's a phaser and phasers aren't flangers, so I really hope the flanger does happen, I bet it'd be amazing.

I guess this explains the 141G and T. Is he scaling down to eventually move expand more? Or is he moving this to a hobby/second job?

He's one of the builders whose effects are on another level, and I'm sure he'll bring that excellence to whatever he does in the future.

I fucking love my Compact Faye Sing B. It does everything I ever wanted a phaser to do, all without compromising the quality of the sound. It's a seriously great design, inspired by great phasers of the past but going in its own direction. And Ken was great to deal with all the way.
So I'm sad to see him scaling back. But I also wish him the best and hope whatever he does makes him happy. Now, about that flanger…

Ultimate Infanem apreesh. I took stock of my year in pedal purchases, realized several were Infanem, and that I may have a thing for this company's work. Visual aesthetics get a big thumbs up. Especially love the Driving Notion in all its clanktastic glory.
