NDLR Availability

[musicstein]

Any update of new unit availability?

I've been disheartened to see the price of used modules creep to $700 to $1100 on ebay and Reverb.

I'll defer to Jesse to speak more definitively about availability. Even with the chip shortage starting to improve I'm guessing smaller companies' (like Conductive Labs) production orders have to wait behind larger companies' production orders.  

I agree it's a bummer to see people price gouging due to low supply. Another example is Plinky. The DIY sells for 180 euro and there are people trying to get thousands for it. That's capitalism for you.

That said, keep in mind that Reverb leaves the original asking price listed for "Sold" listings. I just got a NDLR on Reverb that says it sold for $700 but I actually got it for $550. Most of the folks capitalizing on low supply hope for maximum profit but, at least in my case, they came down a bit. I wasn't thrilled to pay $550 but that's the cost of not wanting to wait I guess.

Being in tech, I know for sure the big companies have contracts which grant them first run at semiconductor batches.


@BlueTheLines  I'm pretty sure I bid against you on the NDLR bon chance

Did you find one?

I’m going to give it another week or two but I’m not sure the NDLR is for me

I have not found one yet. My budget is about $450, which is making it harder for me to bid on the ones going for $600 to $800.

Apologies for the brief sidebar...

For anyone who uses an iPad or considered one, there are a few apps out there that will get near or even very close to the NDLR's current feature set. I've been enjoying ZOA lately -- AUM as the host, various auv3 midi oscillators/modulators, and other plugins as necessary for the project.

That being said, I am certainly disappointed that NDLR is not available due to reasons. But, I will definitely be acquiring another backup NDLR as soon as the market calms down, supplies resume and it appears in retail, or the code is moved to OSS-- whichever occurs first.

Thanks for the tip! I'll give these go. I love AUM!

Hello everyone,
I am looking to buy a used NDLR. I am based in the US. If anyone is looking to sell, please contact me.
Thanks

Good idea acquiring a 2nd…. Only 1 for sale on eBay , owners not letting them go!

How’s the situation at conductive?

We have a new batch in the works, we had to redo the whole thing to use different processors, due to the global supply fiasco. Last I heard, we're shooting for Feb/March to have them back on the shelf.

Is there going to be any performance or memory related improvements with the new hardware?

The best Christmas present I can imagine would be to hear that you guys will think about a VST version of NDLR.

Hello! This is actually my first post on this Forum. In the process of trying to find a unit (checking with Perfect Circuit in the US for months) and came across this thread mentioning the availability for the NDLR. Does anyone have an update on such? Thank you!
