great!

I´d love this in aluminum instead, think that it would fit the elektron´s look better

this looks awesome! I am quite set on Watson's buchla-style foldable case for the road, but this would definately save me some desk space and allow for good ergonomics also at home.. if the price is right you can count me int oo, brushed aluminum would be awesome, even if that jacks up the price?

+1 on aluminium.

Can you do specials/one-offs too?

EDIT just read on your muff's thread that metal might be possible, and that you have plans for a set of cheeks for rack mounting. That's what I'd be interested in. 12u specifically.

Re:Two Tier Elektron Cheeks... 12 Years, 6 Months ago
I really like the idea of these double cheeks but I'm not sold on the angle of the rear machine. I'd personally prefer the 2 units to sit at the same (or similar) angle, with the rear one being raised / stepped above the lower one

I think it would feel like I was poking at the machine with the tips of my fingers at that steep angle and would not feel natural. I kinda like to rest my fingers on the kit when i'm using it.

How much more for a custom?

i don't have any pricing yet, and something custom would be acrylic only. aluminum is my first choice since they are holding up an expensive piece of gear!

if the angles were the same, it would be kind of a straight line and the overall depth would be deeper - which would be hindering part of the design.

i took them out out this weekend to a fried's studio for a little impromptu jam session, and the top angle felt completely fine - even while standing.

Makes me want another electron box to fit with OT.... Pity my Miami isn't the same size.

Maybe a MNM is on the cards. / D
