"Eko Pedal Bass"

Click the image for the full size shot. via ersatzplanet on Muff's:
"I made a sweet little desktop controller using just Schroff rails and some hand cut plexiglas end panels. Instead of a power bus board I just made a ribbon cable with a bunch of connectors on it. I then made a panel that bused the PS from one of my main cases and also carried over 4 lines to the main case (I used 7-pin DIN connectors). Two of the lines are normalized to the Doepfer CV and Gate buses. A thin Formica panel is slid in the rear grooves and works great. The Tip-top rails can be easily adapted to do the same thing though they are not as deep so panels may have to be made for the exposed edges. I have enough rails left over to make a slanted 6U version next. A cheap source for these rails in the US (at low quantities) is really appreciated. Gur will make a mint off these [see this post]. Especially if he also starts selling a power supply."

Rim/Cl - filter, osc 1 & 2 tune
Schmit - osc 1 & 2 tune (mostly controls the cowbell)

Tek Kit HD Step Sequencer DJ Mixer for the iPad, DJ Set Part Two

YouTube via iPadTekKit | July 01, 2010

"We are about to do a massive update to Tek Kit. We have added a heap of new features including: full step sequencing capabilities, more effects, custom user samples, a swing function and master tube distortion. (just to mention a few) There are still a few loose ends to tidy up, and a bit of user interface work to be done but the end product is a fully fledged electronic music production and performance tool. This video is a sneak peak before the final release occurs, and is just a mess around session just to show off some of the features, and uses a couple of tracks composed by Proxycon (one of our fantastic contributors) as well as a few fill in beats made by the Tek Kit team.

The price of Tek Kit is likely to rise when this update happens, so if you buy it now, you'll get it at a discounted price.

Long Live The Beat!"
