Nat Posted August 21, 2003 Author Report Share Posted August 21, 2003 Ok I talked too soon :) Got the encoders ten minutes after writing the previous message.There's a small problem however, I got only 100 encoders. I called the company and they said the rest was on backorder and that I should expect the balance to arrive by the end of August.So, I was thinking about working this way, I will ship the encoders I currently got to the persons that ordered first. Does that seem fair to all ? If not please tell me, I can also wait to get all the encoders.In between, the encoders are *really* nice, stong build quality, the feeling is incredible, like a normal pot with a very subtle "grind" that reminds you're in the digital domain :) Pretty far from the detented feeling. I can also confirm that these are the encoders used on the Virus rack, they have the exact same feeling :) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
pay_c Posted August 21, 2003 Report Share Posted August 21, 2003 Argh! Backorder! ... ... hmm, cant do anything bout dis.This is absolutely fair! Question: Who are those lucky ones? (I fear I`m not - wanna build that stuff!) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Nat Posted September 1, 2003 Author Report Share Posted September 1, 2003 Still nothing, I guess we should expect them next week.Once I receive the remaining encoders, shipping process will be fast, all the boxes and wrapings are bought, I only need to put them in the box, wait for payment and ship.Thanks for your patience,Nat Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Nomical Posted September 1, 2003 Report Share Posted September 1, 2003 He people, if you've been waiting so long for the encoders, you can wait a little more time. ;DI've got patience, i'm also still soldering so it doesn't matter to me ;D Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
NorthernLightX Posted September 2, 2003 Report Share Posted September 2, 2003 Hi Nat, i'll wait for the backorder, so you can ship the encoders you reserved for me to someone more needy ;)I still have not posted your package, sorry. I hope i'll get to it this week.Cheers, Alex. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
pay_c Posted September 2, 2003 Report Share Posted September 2, 2003 The reason why I`m not quite sooo patient is that in the moment I have holidays ( the whole September! cool) and after that I`m on studying again (away from all that MB stuff). I`ve already soldered everything and I` just waiting for the encoders right now...The point is, in the moment I would have so much time to finish this and in three weeks (I`ll have to move again) I wont have.This is the reason, I hope you understand why I`m so hot about these babies.But anyway: THNX to Nat for this. If we all wait, I can wait, too. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Nat Posted September 2, 2003 Author Report Share Posted September 2, 2003 Ok, since NorthernLightx is waiting (very kind of him) I will be able to ship the encoders for pay_c and jimp. Both of you should reveive a paypal invoice tommorow.Thanks,Nat Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
pay_c Posted September 3, 2003 Report Share Posted September 3, 2003 ;D ;D ;D*happy pay.c in front of you*I`ll get to my bank as soon as possible and send your money! Many THNX to Northern Light and you Nat!! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Steven_C Posted September 3, 2003 Report Share Posted September 3, 2003 hey pay,if you have one encoder, you can use dpdt toggle swithces to switch the one encoder into whichever pins on the din module, thats what I did until I got the rest from Ian, then I pulled out the switches, and stuck the encoders in! The switches were in the holes for the encoders, and the single encoder was mounted in a milkbottle plastic bottle cap, and held to the panel with one screw!

Nat Posted September 11, 2003 Author Report Share Posted September 11, 2003 I will try contacting the company tommorow to know what's happening to the back order...Sorry for the delay guys :( Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Nat Posted September 12, 2003 Author Report Share Posted September 12, 2003 Ok, I have not so good news,I emailed the company and they said there was a problem on the production line, the rest is scheduled to arrive mid november.So, that may cause some problem for some of you, this is what we can do :For the ones who are in a hurry, I won't mind if you buy encoders elsewhere, just let me know.For the ones who are willing to wait, nothing changes. Nice thing is that the shipping to you is quite fast, it took 2 days to ship from canada to england and cost only 5 $ canadian :)So, I will list here the people that are on the waiting list, what would be nice is if you can tell me wether you still want them or not, this way, if some people cancel, there will be room for other people if they want some.piloSteve_CXcenNomicaldragonNils_PodewskihallucinogenThanks for your patience Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
