| gilbert hatem 06.09.2008 | By far one of the most creative cases for a controller. |

| Gil Sanches 06.09.2008 | I have a few PS2 controllers torn apart and decided to mount one toevening
. I mean, mount the buttons - I didn't, like, hop on it or anything. Most of the time, I have the HID data going through MultiControl (Mac) and then into Midipipe for "smart knobs" almost like Moldover, with some mods. Word to the wise about modding PS2 controllers - if doesn't have a solder point, just leave it alone. If anyone has any advice on this, by all means. |
| Nick Ross 22.08.2008 | That's pretty sweet. Are you using Traktor for all the effects? |
| Jason Hamilton 23.08.2008 | So, when i first started out, i really wanted a 25 key keyboard for audio editing, playing synths and such for music production... THEN, once i discovered Traktor, i bought a VCI-100... after seeing Moldover (About 3 months ago), i decided to combine the two, which gives me a very powerful system. The keyboard i keep on my left: it's split like Ean's down the Octave line to separate decks, i have 4 cue points,along with a next and previous cues for quick skipping (and for those songs with 6+ cues) then in the colored tape, i have effects: on each deck i have a punch, 3 kinds of echo (a delay punch at 1/4, 1/8, and 3/16, which actually sounds great for club tracks) i have a dedicated freeze button which is just a button mapped to fx button 2, allowing delay frezes, reverb freezes, and filter swaps (along with a reverse for beatmasher) on the last button is just FX button 1, universal. it was designed for my beatmasher, but i realised the potential for FX punching, etc, when not tying to just my beatmasher On my knobs i have effects, automatically selected with bome's Blue: high pass filter Purple: low pass filter Orange: Reverb, set to 100%. the only size moves as i turn it up. try it out, gives a cool swallowing sound, great for builds Green: a mid pass filter, accompanied with my freeze buttons flips the filter. cool effect for scratching, etc Smoke Grey: Beatmasher! turns it up. i use my "FX On" button to capture to beat i want, then- Silver: controls the length of the beats. i usually set it to 1/4 and flick it back. great for builds on the far right i have master effects, a master LFO sound, a reverb, and a flanger, mapped to the pitch fader ad mod wheel (my pitch fader has the spring removed, giving me two more faders well, thats about it for my keyboard... my VCI doesnt really have anything as cool as Ean's :P, but i am testing out loop functions on my op right buttons and knobs... i'll let you know how it goes so, check it! |
| gilbert hatem 02.08.2008 | @corporation If you had the time and ambition you could always rewire those 8 buttons and drill some holes in the case. That way you could use them. |
| Random X 16.07.2008 | By the way, is this hardware mods only, or also just adding labels to your controller? (Just wondering). |
| Diogo Ribeiro 27.06.2008 | @corporation. That rules |
| 26.06.2008 | here's a mod i did 2 years ago to my mixman dm2. Like what Ean did to his vci-100, i attached two 45 records to the spinning rings of the dm2. doing this permanently, i lost control of the 8 buttons under each deck, but i gained much better scratch performance with the unit in Traktor. |

| Dj Daxsen 25.06.2008 | panda stencil is a nice touch as well! i dont believe that looks too bad at all. only problem would be that the perm texta may rub off with excessive use, but then you can just write it on again i guess! |
| Random X 25.06.2008 | Cool! This is a very cool low budget controller solution! Nice one mate! |
| Matt Kane 25.06.2008 | hey ean and all the other guys! i |

| Sebastian Hanisch 09.05.2008 | Hey Ean, Just finished modding up my VCI-100.. like to hear your feedback.. whole vci skinned wit vinyl, project cost <$50.... have taken a few pics of the 'work in progress', can write up a DIY if u like GaDgeT |
| 06.05.2008 | Here is mine to get things started. I added 8 arcade buttons and a dual foot switch to my stock Silver VCI-100. The foot switch connects via an XLR jack in the front. |
