Erica Synths will not take responsiblity for any issues, malfunctions, or damages that may result from incorrect assembly or use of the kit.
The original DIY kit comes in a miniature pocket calculator formfactor, but we at Erica Synths wanted to make it more playable, so we reached out to Zack and developed Pikocore XL version that has identical functionality, but comes in Erica Synths signature hands on user interface and proper aluminum enclosure. Infinite Digits Pikocore XL by Erica Synths is a full DIY kit that includes all components to build an instrument and put in in action straight away. The RP board in the kit is pre-programmed and ready to use.
