"The revised Plague Bearer boards are in and they are great! They have been redesigned for the coming modules; smaller, more compact, and multiple power connector options. The boards have holes for either a 4-pin 0.156” Amp header (Blacet) or a 5-pin 0.100” AMP SIP header (one side of the Doepfer 10-pin power connector). The lesson on this one is: Any automated process will malfunction occasionally, so pay the extra bit for electrical testing when you order a run of PCBs.

Now available: Plague Bearer Barebones pack. There were a few requests for this and it sounds good to me: A fully-assembled single-channel board plus knobs, jacks, and connectors. $35.00 USD each plus S&H.

Coming soon: Plague Bearer modules. Parts and boards are in stock, just waiting on the panels. They will be 0.090”/2.2mm photo-anodized aluminum Eurorack format (but you can pick your preferred power connector as mentioned above).
There will be two models: PB-1E (single) and PB-2E (double)."

"Pink Floyd keyboard player and founder member Richard Wright has died aged 65 from cancer.

Wright appeared on the group's first album, The Piper at the Gates of Dawn, in 1967 alongside lead guitarist Syd Barrett, Roger Waters and Nick Mason.

Dave Gilmour joined the band at the start of 1968 while Barrett left the group shortly afterwards.

Gilmour said: 'He was such a lovely, gentle, genuine man and will be missed terribly by so many who loved him.'"

Two video documentaries to remember his impact by:

"This documentary looks at the conception, design and live shows of The Wall performed by Pink Floyd in 1980 and 1981. It features in-depth 1980s era interviews with Roger Waters, David Gilmour, Richard Wright and Nick Mason and shows footage of The Wall performed at Earl's Court in 1980. It also features archival footage of the Syd Barrett era Pink Floyd and discusses how David Gilmour was brought into the band to initially augment their live shows when Syd became unreliable due to his drug problem and how Gilmour ultimately replaced him. A short retrospective of Pink Floyd post-Syd in included. The documentary also discusses is how Roger Waters' concept of The Wall came about and how Pink Floyd, the band, were on the verge of breaking up while performing The Wall concerts. Included are interviews with Mark Fisher (stage designer), Jonathan Park (stage designer), Gerald Scarfe (animation designer and director) and Bob Geldof and Alan Parker in relation to the making of The Wall Movie."
