Contest: Win an MPC 2000 classic by designing a box for MPD

I have an MPC 2000 that I am willing to give away (US residents only). The contest would involve designing a box that would hold an MPD 32. It would hold the MPD32 at an angle similar to that of the MPC 2000. The dimensions should be similar to the Korg Kronos 61 as it will sit beside it.

The contest would allow forum members to post their designs (including measurements in millimeters)...and allow other forum members to vote on the winner. Than I will send the winner an MPC 2000 classic.

I will take the winning design to a local shop to make the final product.

Reply to this thread if you are interested in participating.

Just So I'm clear, A blue Print and mock up would work, I don't need to create the physical box?

Just the blue print....you don't need to create a physical box. This would be open to US residents only (shipping is expensive oversees).

do you just want a mount box or an extension to the Kronos?

My vision was a mount box...but this is a contest so I don't want to limit anyone's creative freedoms. Forum members will decide the winner by public vote.

what kind of stand do you have it on? This would help

hope you dont end up giving this away like you did the maschine...a.k.a sold on ebay

I have it on keyboard stand: http://www.prolinestands.com/products/i ... nds&uID=84

The stand is too wide. So I bought this piece of wood with a nice black finish to sit on top of the stand. Its perfect for an MPC and an external drive to sit besides it.

I was never going to "give" away Maschine for free. I was going to sell it to a forum member at a reasonable price. No one made any offers so I sold it on eBay.

If I get feedback in this thread that forum members are interested in such a contest, I am giving an MPC 2000 away for free. No money exchanging hands. Shipping to be paid by me. You can even join in. I already have an MPC 2000 and don't need this second one. So I am trying to find it a good home.

Do you really want me to dig up the post in which you said you might just give it away to a forum member.?

"Might" give it away...means there is a "possibility"....not that it is a promise to do anything. I am sorry if I am using big words for you. I will try to keep it simple in the future

So yes, please dig it up as you were obviously sleeping through vocabulary class. I will continue to educate you.

In this thread, I am giving away an MPC 2000. I will pay for the shipping as well. I hope that is easy enough for you to understand.

That wasn't a nice thing to write.

I opened this up to US residents only because USPS will get it there in a timely manner. To Canada? It could take forever and then you would be calling me a liar.

Ill cosign this...

Shipping time is no excuse...You American cats treat Canadians like we live in Antarctica. Tape Op gives free subscriptions to residents of the US, UK and Australia, but wont give a free subscription to Canada.....WTF?! Like shipping to the UK costs more than shipping here.

Plus, I build most of my own shelving/desks, so youre missing out on some good design skills. I would have built and shipped a MPD sized shelf for a 2000..

If you ship to Puerto Rico, I'm in.

I was looking at both models and it could be an ill project since both are black.
