We’re thrilled to announce the launch of our Bela Gem campaign on Crowd Supply!

Explore the campaign and back the project here.

Bela Gem Stereo and Bela Gem Multi bring real-time audio and sensor processing to the new PocketBeagle 2, extending the our beloved Bela platform with more power, flexibility, and creative potential. Whether you’re building musical instruments, spatial audio systems, interactive installations, or assistive technologies, Bela Gem gives you the tools to prototype and produce with confidence.

• Bela Gem Stereo is compact, battery-friendly, and perfect for mobile audio, wearables, and embedded musical interfaces.
• Bela Gem Multi offers 10 channels of high-quality audio I/O, with AC/DC-coupled outputs, ideal for multichannel processing, Eurorack integration, haptics, and more.

Like all Bela systems, the Gem series are open-source and ship with the next generation of our powerful browser-based IDE, supporting languages like C++, Pure Data, SuperCollider, FAUST, Max RNBO, and Csound.

The first batch of Bela Gem are scheduled to ship in November 2025, with fulfillment handled by Crowd Supply’s distribution partner, Mouser Electronics.

We’d love your support—whether by backing the campaign, sharing it with others, or simply helping spread the word.

Thanks for being part of the Bela community. We can’t wait to get these new tools out in the world and to see what you make with them!
