via the BugBrand mailing list:"Hi all,
I know it has been quiet on the BugMailList recently!
Most of my efforts have been going into continuing work on the ever expanding BugModular. (http://bugbrand.co.uk/modular)
Plus ongoing building of the Board & Postcard Weevils.
These have been in- & out- of-stock over the last months and I've chosen not to send updates whenever I restock these items.
But, just to keep people in the loop...
I have just added more BoardWeevils AND PostcardWeevils to the online shop - http://bugbrand.co.uk/shop
This batch of Postcards will now be the last of this design - an updated version should be appearing at the end of the month.
While the old version Postcard has proved really popular, I've felt that some updates were called for.
More details when the new design is ready to go, but briefly it will include:
- similar 3-osc design
- but with improved dials (like on the BoardWeevil) for greatly improved feel
- extra IC to stabilize the output level on the minijack - previously things would get super-loud when the power starvation was turned off.
-- this will maintain similar sounds, but improve their usability!
- improved board design will now have silk-screen legends.
- new box for lovely presentation!
The new design will be slightly larger and the price will have to be increased a bit mainly due to the improved dials used.
So - if you want to get your hands on one of the last old version PWeevils at the pre-rise price, strike now!

Background work has also been continuing on a new compact BugCrusher design, but this inches forward at quite a slow pace. Hopefully I can move things in the coming months... so stay tuned!
That is that for now..
Best wishes to you all!

ReplyDeleteHaha! That pic was actually done for MusicTech Magazine and they asked for a white background - that was the best I could muster...
