Hi Kai! No, we're not attempting to provide an exact date on this one; (suffice to to say that we too are anxious to ship these as soon as possible). We have amassed all of the specifically Buchla type parts, and have completed one of the two custom Buchla format conversion circuit board layouts necessary to put the Zeroscillator into this format. We already have stacks of this first circuit board design in stock here ready to go. We didn't expect to have to make this second circuit board, but find it necessary in order to fit the depth of the 200 series "boats". It also solves a flip flop problem with a connector on the first board. We busted through some pretty challenging circuit board file compatibility problems, but our circuit board designer went on tour performing for a couple of weeks and is back now, and my Mother had major abdominal surgery and she's very well now, so basically we're getting back to finally tying a bow on the new #2 board layout and souping it so we can actually ship all these crazy Buchla format puppies! Those are the two Buchla specific circuit boards in the ZOe... the ~other~ four complex circuit boards which are specific to every format of Zeroscillator are presently being built, so in essence we're building the fleet of A,B,C,D cards internal to all ZOe modules right now and will be shipping Zeroscillators of all formats as their sub assemblies in various front panel formats are completed. We're tying up a few loose ends such as Dotcom LPGs, power supplies and distro cards - and now shifting most of our attention to Zeroscillators for a few weeks. Other items are still shipping, but we've been soldering ZO A-Boards and C-Boards all last week, and will shift to B-Boards and D-Boards starting tomorrow Sunday. There will be a flurry of ZO shipments in other formats starting in about ten days, and Buchla formats will ship next. By then we will have shipped all outstanding orders and be completely up to date. About then it will be time to release something exciting and new again, (and it just happens that we have something exciting and new in the wings ready), so naturally we're anxious to get everything caught up so we can all start having fun with the next generation of groovy new gadgets... (Oh the humanity!) Best Wishes!
