my mpc's new look

Nice job Nym! Can't wait to see what it's going to look like when you add the wooden sides.

4sho, Imma start looking around for some green LEDS

I like it, but I have to say that the original end of the world Mp has been one of my all time favourites. I do like that it is constantly evolving though!

Whats up with the ALPS tact switches? I would love to buy some that would last. I dont mind paying a bit for them as long as I can swap them out one last time and be done with it. Are these the answer?

ALPS switches feel much better than ones akai used, also they're rated at higher number of operations...so they wont last forever but much longer than the stock ones, but keep in mind milage varies depending on use...I think I paid $10 for bag of 50 tact switches, got them at mouser.com

Thanks Konc3pt! Can you send me a link? I just want to make sure I get the right ones.

That is the bomb... I thank you good sir. Any way you could find tact switches that would fit the Fantom X? I have the service manual if that would help. Don't mean to be greedy, but I've been trying to find someone who could point me in the right direction for a while. Thanks in advance.

I have no idea if these would work...aside from doing some reasearch or taking apart the actual keyboard Im not really sure how you could determine that...sorry mayn but I cant chime in on this one
