March 2026 Ghosts Pre-orders — Production + Shipping Updates

Hi all,

We will use this page to provide updates for those who pre-ordered Ghosts in March 2026.

If you have a question about your order, or something that isn’t answered here, please email support@kinotoneaudio.comdo not create a new topic on the forum.

May 15th update:

All orders have shipped.


Trays and trays of Ghosts built up and ready for testing


Frequency sweeping units to check for anomalies across the audio spectrum that wouldn’t be perceptible by a simple listening test


Functional testing with KATS (Kinotone Assisted Testing System) - this step measures every pot, button, footswitch, LED, and both the MIDI and CV circuits


Hi Sid! When a unit passes, our reward is seeing this cute face

I’m about to have a board with all three kinos and a Volante. Very very fun little fx system.

Pedals ordered in March 2026—gulp—right? :wink:

Oh my :joy: yes we meant 2026.

I spy some yellow enclosures in the batch!
Do we possibly have some Sparks on the way in the near future?

Ghost will be my first Kinotone pedal but based on this thread I’m already a very happy customer.

I haven’t been this excited for a pedal since Meris turned their eurorack stuff into pedal form.

Thanks for the update, can’t wait for my Ghosts! Those yellow boxes definitely caught my eye as well. Hopefully some more Sparks soon!

Devastated that I missed the recent order opportunity. Anybody know when the next chance to purchase a Ghosts pedal will be? Any opportunities to get in on the recent batch? Thank you so much.

Just got the email that it shipped. Having the GASiest week of my life over here. Traded a Peak and an Octatrack for a Cascadia and an S-4 and now the Ghosts is coming. Help me, please, I have a problem.

It is only a problem if you don’t embrace it. Just curious, which day did you order? wondering when I will get my email :slight_smile:

I ordered day 1, a couple hours after it opened.

My spring preorder arrived today! I was one away from striking my favorite number :slight_smile: thanks Kinotone crew, very excited for this one

I got mine yesterday too. The manual is my morning reading. It’s such a thoughtful touch to get this in a booklet form. Looking forward to a first play today. Thanks Kinotone :green_heart:
