    i picked up maschine last week and have been playing with it, i was thinking of modifying the controller myself and adding a few things to it. the colourising is nice and the wood cheeks add to it.

    personally i like to build things from the ground up, the bpm guys have seen this already but i thought i would share it with you as well.

    heres the bpm controller unit i designed and built for the software

    That BPM controller is awesome! I remember thinking thats what BPM really would be when it was announced! I am so glad I went with Maschine anyways, but still, nice work! Do you plan on selling that? I'd love for someone to make me a custom controller for some of my synths!

    thanks saintjoe, guys .

    it took a while to make but it was worth it in the end, best thing is i can use it for any software not just bpm so its a really good controller unit.

    all the tools etc to build these things are on the ucapps.de site and the midibox forums have all the details on other things too.

    to be honest you can build any type of controller using the lits and modules, helps to be able to mess with some assembly code and c.

    i have just started building a new controller console, a mix between an icon, smart av and euponix. it should take about 2-3 months to finish.

    the pads and fsr sensors are from the guys at mpcstuff.com they were great in helping me with tech info about the fsr's.

    i have got a couple of ideas on modifying my machine unit, but i have to get some parts and try things first.
