Oh boy, I've made a ferw update videos and quite a few kickstarter updates on this but heres the tldr version: I spent the majority of my savings creating the prototype, re-tooled all the hardware and software after the kickstarter ended - went over budget, got two jobs to pay for the shipping and then canada post went on strike forcing me to pay higher prices for some components while the ones I ordered are stuck in shipping hell. With that out of the way: I started shipping goblins on the 10th in Canada and the USA in small batches. Shipping overseas during the strike would probably cost about $10,000 so I'm waiting for the strike to end before shipping those units. Some backers stepped up huge, paid extra and even donated some money to help me pay for shipping and it got the ball rolling. Im shipping them in small batches right now (hand delivering them by public transit to the carrier because pickup isnt an option during the strike...also expensive) On the plus side - the new goblins are like, a gillion times better than the prototype that was advertised on kickstarter. Bigger, faster screen, encoder for navigation, patch morphing, built in midi controller, individual channels for every app, multitasking, transpose for the arpeggiator...the list goes on. These things are gettin shipped even if i have to frodo baggins the last unit to mordor.
