The Mutron Club : only quacks allowed...

I'm sure in the earlier specs that I saw that the Micro Tron would have a expression pedal jack, but that seems to have disappeared from the latest spec on the website?
I know I'm being pernickety, and it's obviously how the pedal sounds that is most important, but I'm also hoping that they change the graphics so that the knobs no longer cover up the labels.

Wow, I thought these were going to be more, and out of my range. I want one...time to move some things around.
At 4:40 in the video
there's discussion of an expression input, but it looks like it's 1/8" or smaller (?)
Did anyone besides me buy one today?
I figured since I did the "intent to buy" thing back in February, I didn't want to wait any longer. I hope they ship quickly!
EDIT: FYI, shipping is $15.50, and tax is $19.84. That's probably because Mu-FX is located in CA, and I live in CA, too. If you live in another state, you might not get taxed.

I'm still thinking about it… It's a lot of scratch (for me anyway) this time of the month.
But I want to...

I did.
Paid the tax (I'm also in CA) too.
I'll be interested to see if the Micro-Tron will finally be the filter to dethrone the Xerograph for me. If not I think I'll stop trying to find a filter to knock it off its perch.
I bought two thinking that I would rehouse one almost immediately.
My thought is that this is the Mutron that we've been waiting for, small quips aside. 125B, top jacks and made-by-mike means it should be killer.
Plus - I doubt Mike will ever make a million of them.

Do these ship immediately? Would be good to have some early impressions from forum members.
I think the pre-order option is gone now, will have to see if there is stock left when the sales start. I am a bit on the fence on this one, international shipping is dear ($75) and there will be higher import taxes .
I can see where you are coming from with the rehousing....it looks much nicer than the FI though imo. Note sure either is a great benchmark for pedal sexiness ;-). That said what counts is how it sounds!

Yes please to demo's and reviews for those who have ordered the Micro Tron III. The low value of the £ against the $, plus high shipping and customs duty have sadly curtailed my plans for now.
I wouldn't say I'm Mr. Indecisive but it only took me 40 plus years after the original came out to pull the plug on a Mu Tron III ! Hopefully it won't take me that long to get to try out the Micro Tron

I'm going to spend a bunch of time A/Bing it with the Xero anyway, so I might as well record some clips.
I paid the exact same amount to ship one to France and one to NYC. The exact same.
Interesting. I emailed them and they told me the day before the presale shipping to the UK was $75. Have they shipped it already?
I am sorry but I am hugely team Mike - but $75 international shipping is just taking advantage of people.
If that's the case for anyone - maybe the presale was different - it's monumentally lame.
