Same... I JUST got rid of my 500 like a month ago. Sold it to a buddy though, so I still get to play on it.

Really like that set up Simon.
Two small suggestions would be painting it. And putting some/making some shelves for the speakers to sit up at ear height. Would make the setup perfect IMO.
But as is too often the case once the table is done people are usually happy enough the way it is.
It took me 6months to get my act together and make a laptop stand for the corner of my table.

Didn't realise you had a 1D Mess! I've got a vague recollection of it coming up in conversation somewhere but I think it was at Ceri's and so the grid might well have been involved...

I was just getting ready to ask if he wanted to sell the 1D, but then I figure overseas shipping's probably a bitch.

Yeah was going to make some speaker stands but didn't get round to it. As for painting it i quite like it the way it is so will probably just leave it.
I did tell you Levi but you were a bit pissed at the time. Not too keen on using the 1d with Ableton. Will try it with Traktor see what thats like..

It's a pain in the ass (unless you use DVS for transport controls and such), which is why I was gonna ask if you wanted to sell it (since now I want a second one, lol). I currently have a 2D (1D + audio interface) and I love it, but the layout is just awkward if you only have one.

Yeah, it hasn't really got enough controls on its own. Will probably end up selling it but postage will be shit. Probably better to pick one up off ebay .

Yeah... the layout of the Kontrol X1 is pretty nice, I might go that route. I wish they had one with the audio interface built-in though.

Pretty awsum. I like the sound and overall feel. Knobs are sturdy and i don't have had any problems with it so far (knock knock...). I don't have really nothing negative to say about it. Does the job.
