In our last update, we shared that we were tackling an EMC testing challenge and awaiting results from a new test with a different software configuration. Unfortunately, the latest results still aren’t where they need to be.

To ensure the PGB-1 meets EMC requirements, we’re making a necessary revision to the electronics. While this means additional costs on our end and a longer wait for you.

On the positive side, thanks to the modular PGB-1 design, we only have to make a new version of a relatively small part: the Noise Nugget module.
Samples of the new design are already in production and we will send the samples for testing as soon as possible.

This does push our timeline back by another 4 to 6 weeks of delay, but we’re moving as quickly as we can and will keep you updated on the progress here on Crowd Supply and on our Discord server.

In the meantime, we’ve been making exciting progress on the software! Stock firmware version 1.0 is now stabilized, thanks to great feedback from our beta testers. We’ve also updated the C/C++ SDK, reinforcing our commitment to openness and hackability—so you can start experimenting and building with the PGB-1 from day one.

Thanks for your patience and support—we can’t wait to get the PGB-1 into your hands!
