Hey All,
This is a quick update to let you know that the vinyl is out of production and is on it's way to me as of today!
I'm expecting the vinyl to arrive early next week, from there we'll start packaging and a getting things ready to ship out (hopefully) before the 4th of July weekend here in the USA.
If anyone needs to change their address please message me ASAP. Once labels are printed I won't be able to make any changes.
Thank you all for sticking with me through all the mess. We're finely about to wrap this one up and can start looking towards the future... but more on that in the next update!
I'll send out another update once packages start shipping! Stay tuned!
Best,
John Paul Hayward
Vinyl Update #12

Hi all,
As you know we were expecting test presses sometime in early to mid April from our last recut and replate. Those presses actually arrived a little over a week ago, and I've spent the last week thoroughly evaluating them myself and with others. I didn't update the Kickstarter when they arrived because I wanted the chance to evaluate them and come up with a plan moving forward before getting any hopes up (again).
So let's move onto the good and bad news. The good news is that the recut and replating have cleared up all of the thumps and 99% of any pops or clicks that we've been fighting for the last year. Overall things sound wonderful!
Now for the bad news...I'm afraid that you all will have to clear some space for a Cross Symphonic vinyl this June!
That's right, it's finally happening! I've approved the presses and everything is finally moving forward with production. I'm told that production will likely finish towards the end of May, with shipping from the factory to me happening late May/early June. From there I'll get everything prepared to ship out to all of you as soon as possible.
It's been an incredibly long road, and there's still a little ways to go, but we're finally on the other side of this mountain. Thank you all so much for your patience and support!
I'll have more news to share soon!
Best,
John Paul Hayward

(Small) Vinyl Update #10

Hi All,
I hope you had a wonderful Christmas and New Year! I wanted to post a small update to keep everyone in the loop about where things stand.
The latest (and hopefully last) set of test presses are on their way to me right now. The last set were so close to being the ones, but there were just a few small issues that I felt we could address with one more press to really make sure things shine.
If these are approved then we will immediately move into production. I'm not clear on exactly how long it will take to produce and ship the records to me, but once I hear back from the plant hopefully I can give a concrete ship date.
I'll post another update once I've had a chance to evaluate the test presses. Fingers crossed!
Best,
John
