edit: ps looks dope!!!

Scotch tape, Krylon, and patience! I had to do it twice, I about died.
Thanks man, your custom mpc amongst others up here is what inspired me. First time I did gloss black arrows on satin black and it looked real dope but when I put the clear coat on, the arrows disappeared so I redid it and went with red.

nice

nah,,you wont need them,,you'll have to adjust the contrast everytime you unplug the machine,,thats it..unless they fixed that by now..mine is still not here. should be any day though.

That's good. Not to swift in the soldering field.

Cicatrix that cursor is definitely a winner.

That joint looks dope all black with the white screen.
Nice move there....

Sonseelye. I know you are thee expert/master customizer .. but.... How in the world did you get the volume knobs separated If only the 2500 knobs come apart then I understand. But if the 2k's knobs come apart too, school me

Dope cursor too Cica.

Yea when i saw this i had to do this....Thanks Seelye.

New here.. I finally got through the entire thread And ive got to say these are some sick MPCS!! Makin me itch to customize..

Whats the word on reprinting the text on the panel after it's been painted? Is this a strictly Forat level operation or has anyone here gotten this done? If I ever go crazy with modding my 2500 I'd rather have it printed with paint than a skin of course. . Wonder what they'd charge to just print the text on a panel if I painted it myself and sent it to them...

Are there any changes with the JJos that would warrant changing the labels of any of the buttons? It would be pretty slick to make the front panel text match the JJos functions!

Wait... WTF the knobs can come apart???

Ahhh come on Sonseelye you should of schooled me once you found out. You know I was the first dude trying to get my knobs black and green. I tried tape and all that bullsh1t remember?

ex...thats why i posted it...i thought you would be first to see...you need to stay tuned..lol

take a tiny eyeglass srewdriver (flathead) and wedge it in between the cap and the knob and well your on your own from there..just be very patient..

sonseelye, I was just taking the caps off of some grey knobs to get the black tops and I noticed a tiny hole in the knob that if you can find a small enough screwdriver put it through the whole and give it a good wack it will pop that cap right off. Might be a little less painstaking.

oh hey ya know what,,that did work on one of my caps but the others it wouldnt,,,good call,,i would def try this first..
