Show your Customized 2000 and 2000XL`s

^^^i have to run to lowes today,,i'll take in the screws with me to find out what size ul need...

thanks for the help on the screws! i would get it re-lettered but i dont know anyone out here that could do it. what kinda business was the place where you got yours done, sonseelye?

look for a vinyl decal shop that does screen printing.

but first u have to find a template for them to work off of.

nice work man!

the custom game is on the next level,really.nice to see this thread still getting heat from time to time.....thanks,guys.

what impresses me is the creativity with these customizations the more they go on. the lengths that people go to is nothing short of amazing.

ok, phase two. i have gotten the wooden panels now, but am yet to attatch them. gotta put the coloured led's and screen in. such a long process! anyone know what kinda screws for the sides i need? i lost mine years ago and dont fancy taking my mpc into a hardware store to find the perfect fit. btw, the photo doesn't do it justice. now i know how people feel when someone says "why did you paint your mpc pink?" haha

i know it's metric,, cuz i had to go in and get some..but ill be damn if i remember what the size is fam..i know it's no help lol but i know it's metric!

yo jammy, shoot me your email through PM so i can send you some info..

ok, a bit more paint. i should be getting the blue ccfl light for the screen tomorrow or the next day.

^ that color combo is dope as hell.

thanks, i just tried to make it loo kas much like an old piece of gear as i could as opposed to all the futuristic stuff thats out there. i got a dbx117 and a melos echo chamber sitting here on my desk so i want it to fit in with those!

Is this a single or a dual component finish that you used?

TSR

TSR, I really don't know..I just used acrylic clear coat, got it at michael's

to be honest, I don't even know if that's what you're talkin about lol

I finally found the screw/bolt size for the side of the mpc. for future reference, if anyone needs to know, they are size 4 x 15mm according to the packaging. 15mm is maybe to long for most but i needed that length to get my wooden sides on there so half of that or maybe even less will do ya...

ok. ccfl blue light into my screen! thanks to everyone the board that helped with all my mods so far. it was a little bit of a scary operation but worth it in the end. i'll post a pic v.soon...

i feel like the with the amount of people modding now, there should be a seperate section in the forums for modding. it makes total sense, so that the people that who don't care about modding dont have to view all our time wasting garbage haha



ok here's the blue screen. i also pulled the voume and record knobs off my dusted s1000 and i am going to put them on this mpc for a different look. they are smaller and chunkier looking. i don know what colour to paint them. unsure about all the buttons now. i have to drill into the back of them a little bit to make them fit but it'll be worth it...
