Tekki! This one has three knobs/rotaries for the first fout faders.

Note: this is slightly different than the one posted on the "Livid Ohm" Thread

Here is a link: couldn't figure out how to post the picture, because it's a bitmap and the file is too big.

Yeah I came across this while trying to figure out how to make a DIY APC40 (i.e. a 64 button Ableton controller with faders etc...) The cost is reportedly about $699 US... $300 more than the APC40...

On a side note, I was looking to incorporate the UMC32 MIDI USB chip offered by Hale Micro in a DIY project, but it only supports up to 32 inputs... at $75 dollars a pop, I'd probably have to use at least 3 of them making it cost ineffective to compete with simply buying the APC40...

Has anyone used MidiBox? I'm not afraid of programming chips... but I'm not to keen on electronic components which is why the prebuilt UMC32 was attractive...

Anyway, the Ohm64 is pretty nice with the wood finish... I feel like I'd have to drink wine instead of beer while using it...

Yeah, but if I am correct, Livid will also provide these controllers with composite and complete metal casing, so not all is lost.

Unless I made it myself I don't want a wooden controller. Looks like a good piece of gear though

Yeah, for me that's, a downer to be honest.
I would not buy a controller with wood grain.
