POLL: NEW TTM57SL COVER

DJ Nevoc 8:07 AM - 8 February, 2007
OK GALS & GENTS HERE IT IS!!!

Ok, first off I'm in the works for building and selling a new cover plate for the 57, before I go into product I'm taking a poll.

The Question is what kind of cover would you like?

1. A White Sticker that is laid over your cover, on top of which is transparent platter that will go to any color of the rainbow.

2. A simple Replacement cover: See here only for a 57 instead.
www.rane.com


The Reason I ask is because I can do either, but I'm only going to do one. The idea is that if you want just a white mixer you could just get that, but if you want the Light panel with it, you can get that too.


Why a light panel? In my DJ Booth it’s very dark, so I lay a glow stick between my knobs for light. The other reason is that if DJ woody likes a Blue Mixer and Nik_39 Likes a Pink mixer, both DJ's can have a product that can not only do both, but also changes with the movement of an adjuster knob. I can't give away too many details on how it all works. But just trying to figure out not only what you that TTM57SL people want but also what is the most effective/cost efficient product.

I await your response!

One more question is what are you willing to pay for a color changing plate, or a standard one color plate?
skinnyguy 11:05 AM - 8 February, 2007
color changing. so i can change it to red when i get angry over stupid requests, blue when i'm calm, and green for when i'm....um...greeny.
vio0633 11:22 AM - 8 February, 2007
Color Changing!
nik39 12:08 PM - 8 February, 2007
Pink is fine with me.

But what I would like to see is a transparent cover, and a template which you can print to your needs, then cut out and put in between the transparent cover and the mixer.

This would also give you the option to label those buttons to your needs and to your function map, ifyaknowaddamean.
Lord Fader 2:20 PM - 8 February, 2007
transparent cover for 40-50 $ plus shipping would be cool
ABM 2:39 PM - 8 February, 2007
Color changing!
DJ Nevoc 3:18 PM - 8 February, 2007
Can I get this a sticky?
Res-Q 6:55 PM - 8 February, 2007
color changing would be bad
skinnyguy 7:31 PM - 8 February, 2007
nik39 has a cool idea about the labeling part. i like that.

would be cooler if the labels could change when you change groups too...heh.

I CAN do custom art, insteand of my background, but it will cost more, and will be done on a case by case basis.
Kapt Nemo 11:21 PM - 8 February, 2007
I'd enjoy a color changing face plate... What kind of cost is the buyer looking at for something like that?
brett rock 7:12 AM - 10 February, 2007
a "mood" plate would be dope. or one that says, "please finger me" -next to the faders for scratch djs.
Dj KaGeN 11:10 PM - 13 February, 2007
What exactly is a color changing plate?
DJ Nevoc 9:27 AM - 14 February, 2007
I'm coming up with alternative covers for the 57 that will change colors according to what the user wants
Res-Q 9:47 AM - 14 February, 2007
Nevoc you're the man!
vio0633 9:53 AM - 14 February, 2007
When do you plan on making these and how much will it cost for us?
pron2 1:57 PM - 14 February, 2007
I'd pay 40 bucks...
DJ Nevoc 8:11 AM - 15 February, 2007
I'm trying to keep cost down, but still working on it. I'm pushing to get this ready to produce No Later Than the end of March
vio0633 11:35 AM - 15 February, 2007
Sweet man! Keep us up to date on how this goes.

customised huh? sounds too good to be true. definately interested :)
treeo730 2:47 PM - 17 February, 2007
I just want to say, niiice, yees.
very interested
Wildstylus 10:48 PM - 17 February, 2007
Whatever you make, make sure it looks super cool and is super durable - one of the best things about the current faceplate is its durability.

Color change sounds like a gimmick to me. But then again, people love gimmicks...
treeo730 12:29 AM - 18 February, 2007
Wildstylus... did you see his white faceplate..sick. With a nice mac book and a pack of orbit. Pimpy.
longshot 3:12 PM - 4 March, 2007
any updates on when this project will be done & made available to the public? :)
DJ Nevoc 4:43 PM - 4 March, 2007
I just got my vacation so Im putting alot of R&D in to it, hopefully by the end of the month, but were still waiting on the specs for the plate from RANE...
Res-Q 10:08 AM - 5 March, 2007
keep it up Nevoc
DJ Nevoc 3:40 AM - 7 March, 2007
UPDATE: I have the specs from RANE, Will get a picture of the prototype once its sent from the manufacturer.
longshot 12:35 PM - 7 March, 2007
very kool, keep us posted
ABM 5:36 PM - 7 March, 2007
still very interested to see what the end product looks like. thanks.
DJ Nevoc 9:55 PM - 8 March, 2007
UPDATE: After talking to Rane about possible solutions, it will be hard to come out and produce the CHAMELION cover...


HOWEVER, I can start taking orders for a custom faceplate. Basically you will replace you current decal for an identical one, but with either your cutsom colors/artwork, or one of my base images.

Still looking on getting a price, obviously Custom artwork will cost more than a standard color change.

Please submit custom images to djnevoc@yahoo.com
DJ Nevoc 10:27 PM - 8 March, 2007
Just to give you an idea of what I am talking about.

nik39 10:33 PM - 8 March, 2007
Ouch, my eyes hurt.

What about the see through option?
DJ Nevoc 2:18 AM - 9 March, 2007
May be possible, but the Rane guys said anything not metal for a cover plate could cause complications. I'll look into it.

So, we basically have to lift the decal off the metal plate & place the new colored decal perfectly in its place. Is the material being used the same as the original decal?

Also, can I see how a faceplate with red replacing the black & the grey with a lighter grey matching a MacBook Pro? That would be my choice when available.
ralph 10:47 PM - 9 March, 2007
Hells yeah!!! An aluminim style cover to match the macbook pro with white backlighting to match the lighted keyboard too!!!

I just got a boner!!!

Sorry, just got too excited...ahem...can it be done?
DJ CROSSFADE 6:23 PM - 10 March, 2007

Yes just lift the old one off and put the new one on, same material, and you can make the faceplate any picture or color just let me know the colors.
DJ Nevoc 1:49 AM - 12 March, 2007

djsteel 9:21 AM - 17 September, 2007
I really want to customize my mixer but I was wanting to do more like get a secondary face plate and have it painted at a auto shop. Has anyone done that yet?
DJ Nevoc 4:20 AM - 19 September, 2007
This can work. What you'll need to do id get in ontact with RANE and try and get a copy of the Lexan sticker and a faceplate seperate that come with the mixer. Once you get them have your plate painted. Then place the stickers on the mixer. and cut out the gray area you dont want with a razor blade/exacto knife.
