Dope and different, almost weird haha

Screen tilt is sick. Really gives the 1K a whole different look, very retro.

the concept is great... but the paint job kinda blows.

props regardless for trying a new mpc1000 mod.

i think its dope. paint job is holding it back a little but the concept of the tilt screen and the look of the jog wheel makes it very unique. thanks for following up on my request. maybe a tutorial on how to make the tilt screen???
or is that pushing it lol

Even though cosmetics don't effect the final sound, I would definitely look into improving the way it looks. Nice idea, but keep working on it!

cool mod, nice concept andcourageous....

it s not really my style, the most important YOU like it....

i find it abit clunky, not rally transpertable anymore, would like to see a mpc 1000 mod with a real TILTING screen mod...

i like the colour design with the circle on the buttons...

ok - i'm just gonna throw this out there and see what people think and see if anyone has any knowledge on the issue.

wouldn't it be possible to make a cheap and easily removable tilt screen mod by using a prism?
i know they make prisms that will go as far as 90 degrees.

what i'm picturing is: you get a prism at a medium angle that you like, say 45 degrees or so. glue 2 small magnet strips on the bottom left and right side of the prism, and then glue another 2 magnet strips (or use double-sided tape) on either side of the mpc screen. then you can just stick the prism right over the screen and the magnets will hold it in place. when you want to transport the mpc or view it straight on you can just pop it off.

CONS: can't adjust the viewing angle (unless you get different angled prisms).

PROS:
cheap.
very easy to install.
removable and undoable if you want to sell the mpc or whatever.
don't have to worry about it getting damaged (if it gets bumped it will just pop off the magnets)
might look cool.

the trick is to find a source of prisms that are the right size and angle for the mpc screen. anyone have any ideas on this?

Yes,and hows about using colored gel plastic sheet for changing the screen color.maybe some high definition stuff they may use for lighting ect. i like the data knob!!!

Smart. Try it!

the screen does not fit thru the stock hole.
