I was also on the fence about ordering the mixer as it seemed fairly expensive. Maybe if it had been cheaper they would have got the 50 orders required.

The offer wasn’t up for very long. How are they supposed
to get 50 orders if they don’t advertise and they don’t
give time for people to find out about the product?

Sounds to me more like they weren’t very interested in
selling it.

I inquired about one after seeing it here, but after seeing the suggested price,

I simply couldn’t afford something like that. I mean,

its a cool mixer, but that price tag is too much, especially

for someone looking or a “DIY” mixer or a kit, or even

pre-assembled. Kudos for great design, but its out of

my league (and usually that doesn’t matter to me, but

I couldn’t get THAT drunk)

Is anyone considering making yourself the Aurora?

I am, but there is no good DIY guide… damm

that’s a shame, it looks like a really cool project. I hope they get the orders eventually, it’d suck to have that kinda thing go under so quick.

They might have had a few more takers had they actually

published the fact that they needed 50 orders at a minimum.

I was pretty surprised to get their mailing list e-mail

stating the mixer would not be available due to less than

20 orders; I had no clue there was a minimum required.

As a side note, I was pretty disappointed with the second

‘kit’ option. Selling you the various components that could

be easily sourced on Digikey, Mouser, or your local electronics

shop but then leaving it up to you to get a hold of the

custom panels seemed a bit backwards to me. At least the

PCB was included, I guess.

I was on the fence about it as well. I think at $100 less,

I woulda been in for one… shoot maybe two.

Less than 20 orders?

If they had a slight bit of advertising, I know there would be a lot more interested. Sadly, that’s not the case.

I was going to save up and order one, too =\
