There was some discussion about this a few months ago, with some (including me) apprehensive about a small company putting out a synth with motorized knobs and the support that would be needed. Now we have more info:
US$3000 for the first 500 units, US$3500 after that point.
Also, it's an add-on for a Raspberry Pi 4. I have no idea how they're squaring that with a claimed 'all analog signal path'.
