Nava v1.0 metal Box [WAITING LIST]

Discuss Nava construction and related issues
  • Shipping will be from where? I'm in the Netherlands, is there an estimate?
  • Couple of things... you have "RHYTHM" spelled wrong on the case. You're missing the first 'H'

    Second...there's a large gap between the controls and the labels. I think it would look better if "NAVA" and "RHYTHM" were above the controls like the original 909. Maybe that's not easy to do based on the board construction?

    Other than that, thanks for the hard work!

    Will there be a version of the case with a cable slot for when an internal power supply is installed, like Kacper did for the Yocto with his version 2 case ?
    Unless Nava's specific architecture doesn't leave enough room for an internal PSU at all perhaps ?
    (sorry I can't really check that myself as I'm not DIY skilled and haven't seen either units in person yet)
    Maybe will be a update of the possible second batch.

    That's a good solution ;)

    I adapted design to match Vincents PCB.

    Agreed, they look a bit lost in the big white as is so, if not placed above the synth controls for lack of space, perhaps they could be just a little closer to the sequencer controls below them. Also the "NAVA" logo would most probably look sharper and hint more at the original if there was less space between letters, but I suppose that's a highly subjective matter (and the whole thing is looking great nonetheless !).
    Maybe will be a update of the possible second batch.
    great :idea:
  • This is verry exciting, I've been waiting for a good 909 clone for a long time :)
  • most awesome, signed up :)

    Hi there,
    Shipping will be from Metropolitan France, and the cost will be 21.20 €
  • You did an amazing job, and I really like that it's powder coated.

    HappyMum, is there any way you can incorporate an IEC (Internal PS) into this first batch? :D
    It would make this case perfect.

    Wall wart transformers are awful and make the product look cheap. They also fault very easily and you often have to buy 3-4 during the life of the device they are powering.

    Please! :D :D :D
