@ Scooby -when the jog wheel first came in i thought that was the case i couldent get it on but it is just a really tight fit once you push it on with a bit of force it fits like a glove it doesent spin off axis or anything ..has a really nice heavy feel to it as well when your turning it ...makes it feel like your actually puttin in sum work when your choopin samples on the trim screen :lol:

any body else on this board want to show off there mp's? let's see what your workin with! (literally) :lol:

very nice job

i actually really like the chrome - i think black chrome would have been overkill - its nice having those knobs stick out :mrgreen:

It's dope I wish i had the nuts to paint mine but I dont want that cracked peeled off paint look when I (which will happen) get the wrong paint. If I was going to do it i'd have to experiment with different paints for ages. but I'd like to get that GhostinMPC guy who posted his customs her to do it, all black matte no shine to it type joint with glow in the dark pads lol.

i feel you on the paint thing roots i looked on a couple different site and most of them said krylon its made for plastic's so i figure why not and its working out well so far that ghostin mpc dude had sum nice ass paint jobs but i really dont want to send my mp to japan jus to get painted :shock: lol if i do decide to paint mine im jus going to look up how to paint metal do it myself and find sumbody in my area to silkscreen the lettering back on ill learn a new skill with the paint plus ill have the did all with my own two hands thing to brag about 8) lol

matte black with the glow pads sounds dope as $hit by the way lol if you can get the lettering to glow as well you could make beats in the dark and get a whole new vibe going :lol:
