Apologies for the lack of updates. I’ve not wanted to get hopes up when we don’t yet know when we can release. But I can say it’s getting close.
The latest PCB design is complete, tested and fully functional!
The enclosure design is also complete. Here’s some pedal porn with a 3D printed sample:
The final will be 2 piece aluminum and look something like this:
Part sourcing and manufacturing continue to be the sticky bits, but I get good news of progress every few weeks. Micah and I continue to finish up the software and I still have some build and user documentation to complete. Thanks for your patience. Stay tuned!
V3.0 will be for the RPi4, correct? From what’s shown, the RPi5 looks like a drop-in replacement, but I can’t see if the display and/or the additional room needed with the RPi5’s heatsink and ran attached.
v3 is 100% compatible with pi4 and pi3. It also works great with pi5 except that the addressable LED’s are currently not available due to an architectural change with the GPIO pins on pi5 (RP1). The RPi community has created an experimental work-around via a kernel hack. Once that is better formalized, we’ll roll it into the official pi-Stomp software (likely before v3 hardware is available for sale).
Hi everyone, I’m very happy with this news, I’m waiting for availability because I would like to try it as soon as possible, perhaps with the Raspberry 5.
Looks cool. Looking forward to the release!
wow. now it’s a serious contender against commercial gears like line6, neural DSP, you name it.
cheers for all the way from v1 through here.
Looks good! Is there anywhere we can sign up to be notified when it is alive, or just need to check here?
I was kinda kicking myself for not snagging a V2 last year, but this looks so good. I have money stashed for release day.

Looks amazing!
Will there be an option of a kit with/without the Raspberry Pi? I have an extra RP4…..hoping to save a few $$!
That is seriously beautiful.
