Microcosm-Hologram Electronics new pedal

[preservation]

The suspense is killing me.
Mid-late April was a bad guess.

I’m hoping we get an update soon, pre-orders are non-refundable.

I was all set on this one. But I think i'm gonna go with a Poly Digit instead. Decisions...

[somanytoys]

Damn, that sucks, but a lot of things are behind right now, it seems. I was hoping to read a review of it by now, I’m thinking good ones.

That Polydigit seems really great, I was following the guy’s development of it on one forum or another, and his updates after he released it. Everyone seemed to be very impressed with it, and he actually took requests there for making new algorithms.

I hope it gets released soon, and they update everyone. It’s a weird time, but it’s still pretty easy to communicate with people, especially people that have given you money up front.

[preservation]

Yeah, simple communication is all I expect. I’d imagine some photo/video blogging of the build/final touches would help sell more units anyway.

I’ve never built a simply compressor let alone engineered some massive multi-fx unit. I could understand another month if things were really delayed. Just give a shout-out to your pre-order folks.

I just got an email from the Hologram Electronics and they say they are starting to ship out the pre orders this week. They will be shipped in the order they were received, and because of the virus they will be working with a small shipping team.

They posted a manual for the microcosm as well.

I'm really excited about this! I ordered mine Feb 28, so I wonder how many are before me.

[somanytoys]

Cool, glad to hear that.

You guys please post a review after you get them and play with them a bit. I love the Infinite Jets, but I'm also really interested in this one, especially if it's all that the IJ can do and more... (even tho I haven't really mastered the IJ)

[preservation]

Will do.
Haven’t received a shipping notice yet but I think only the first batch has gone out. I’m certain that my order was placed within 24hrs of its announcement.

First things I’ll look at is calibration/tracking and if the bypass signal is affected.

I have been seeing some Microcosm videos trickling out as the very first ones are sent out. My tracking number says it should arrive tomorrow so I have been reading the manual and watching as many videos as I can in preparation.

Anyone else get theirs yet?

[SummerLeftMe]

Damn, just rechecked my shipment tracking and now says it will be here next Tuesday, not tomorrow. Don't know why it's going to take almost 2 weeks to get here. .

[somanytoys]

Damn, that does seem kind of ridiculous. Is it UPS or the post office? Amazon is also taking about 2 weeks or so to process orders.

I know that a lot of people are ordering online right now, but still, damn.

[SummerLeftMe]

It was shipped UPS ground to Hawaii. There was no shipping option when it was ordered so I guess that's why it'll take longer. So it's making it's way slowly by truck. Most shipping places say to expect delays but I hadn't had any so far. I have staytrem coming from England that was shipped the same day and it's supposed to be here before the Microcosm. Oh well . .need to be patient.
