A few notes:

1) they did ship the first 50 out with the wrong bolts but immediately sent out the correct ones. I couldn’t wait and the bolts it came with worked (although snug) and I’ll be replacing them with the correct ones when they arrive

2) Left out appears to actually be dry out and Right out appears to be wet out not L and R. So I’m plugging both into my daw in mono for recording. So when all the way dry on the mix knob it’s only coming out of “L” and when all the way wet it’s only coming out of “R”. This was really confusing for me before I figured it out so thought others would like to know.

3) 2 little parts on the Channel board we’re knocked loose during shipping. Folktek was awesome about it, immediately responded and already shipped out a new Channel to me and allowing me to send the other one back when I get the new one so I can keep using it (not entirely sure what those parts affected). Great customer service here!

Here’s a little clip as I was learning it. This was before I tuned it. Tuning it as recommended in the manual makes a huge difference so don’t skip that step!

I’m try to get a proper clip today

Nice...

It would have been nice to have an headphone out in there or an output that can drive headphones, I'm not sure what's the smallest thing I could use for this when not using it with the modular. Anyway, mine's not there yet, hasn't even shipped and then it has to go all the way to Japan.

Couldn't you send it to a mult and have it split to both sides? Use daw to pan and such? Wondering if you can send it to a mult before effects too. Mine shows tomorrow. Along with my Music Easel. Yes.

Mescaline and Music Easel; that's a great haul! I am jealous

I finally broke down and emailed Folktek today. They got back to me with a tracking number immediately. So it's on its way! Doesn't look like it will be here until next week though

Emailed them two days ago, no reply. Racist.

Edit: replied to 5 mins later. I'm in the next batch shipping out, so at least the order numbers seem nonsensical. :idk:

Yeah, I ordered in the first day and have no shipping info yet... The last days of waiting are the most difficult :).

What size cable even goes in this thing? It's not 1/8th or 1/4th? I would have thought they'd include that crap...

I'm also super disappointed with the quality of the framing. Half the holes don't line up at all. Extremely disappointing.

How about you shut the fuck up raj? :hello:

Jwar, besides the little dupont jumpers I'm sure it uses the standard-to-eurorack 3.5mm. They mentioned the frames were kinda fucked, shame if it's totally bogus.

My top didn’t line up perfectly but I think when I get the proper screws it wil better than it is now. As long as all the screws get in I’m fine with it. And yes, standard 1/4 inch cables....
