Kickstarter Campaign

June 2024 Status and What’s New

Hey everyone! We’re thrilled to have you here. As of now, MICRORACK LLC is officially registered in the US – a huge step for our Kickstarter campaign. :tada:

We did hit a small snag during the process. Our initial bank application was declined, so we’ve reapplied and are currently under additional review. This has caused a slight delay in our timeline, but we’re working hard to get everything sorted out as quickly as possible.

Originally, we planned to launch our Kickstarter in late June 2024, but due to this delay, we’re moving the start date to late July 2024. We appreciate your understanding and patience as we finalize these steps – we’re almost there!

What to Expect from Our Kickstarter

We are committed to making MICRORACK an affordable, modular synthesizer system for everyone. Here’s a sneak peek at what we’ll be offering:

  • Starter Kit: A breadboard packed with our best modules and some extras for less than $150.
  • Learning Kit: Two breadboards, a dozen modules, and more goodies for around $250.
  • Pro Rack Kit: A portable chassis compatible with Eurorack, loaded with modules, for about $350.

Plus, you’ll be able to buy individual modules to customize and expand your MICRORACK setup just the way you want. Whether you’re just getting started or looking to enhance your current gear, we’ve got you covered!

Exclusive Perks for Backers

To thank you for your support, we’re planning some fantastic perks for our backers:

  • Early Bird Discounts: Grab MICRORACK kits and modules at special low prices.
  • Merch: Awesome MICRORACK-themed stuff like T-shirts, stickers, and more.
  • Sample Pack: Studio-quality samples featuring MICRORACK sounds.

More details on these perks will be shared as we get closer to launch!

Open-Source and the Community

We are committed to making all our designs open-source shortly after our Kickstarter. This means you’ll get access to schematics, design files, and firmware for all MICRORACK modules. We believe in the power of community and collaboration, and we’re excited to see what you’ll create with MICRORACK!

We’re also inviting you to contribute your ideas and share your modules with the community. Head over to our modules topic to share your thoughts or learn about existing modules. Your contributions can help shape the future of MICRORACK!

Thank you for your amazing support! We can’t wait to bring MICRORACK to life with your help. Let’s build something great together!

Hi everyone here! I’m Alexander aka @sawa and I’d be happy to take part in fundraising campaign. Since microrack targeted as Worldwide project, so I’d like to know how this process will be organized for participants located outside of the US. Thanks

Hi, Alexander! Thanks for your question! If you have eligible international payment method (credit card) and a post address everything should be alright

Heyhey I can’t wait to get my hands on microrac! I really like the idea of modular synts but high princes for starters always pushed me away.

I would like to ask is there a prepre relise, or can we book a place a in advance before official Kickstarter campaign?

I’m afraid early bird packages will go in seconds.

We are really happy to hear how accessibility of MICRORACK could bring you to into modular synthesis!

Pre-pre release or any kind of queue are not planned.

We plan to keep price low at every point so you could get a kit without breaking your wallet even after the campaign.
