        I had a student, use some of these in a gallery installation in Kitchener Ontario (where the compay is based).
        They seemed rather nice. He mounted them behind laser cut acrylic to create a public facing interface. It was nice.

          Yeah, I'm loving the modular reconfigurability of these!  @dusx, did they seem well-made?  The tactile response of the faders and buttons would be super important to me, for an everyday workflow solution...

             seemed solid to me. Stood up as a public interface. Cant remember how the feel was though.

                I have a set of these.  I really like them - have used them on 2-3 projects and use them when teaching my students every semester.


                I only have two issues with them - first, the knobs are a bit loose and I tend to over spin them. I literally have some from the first batch they sold commercially and have been told that the newer knobs are not so loosy-goosy. Second, there seems to be a limit of around 3-4 simultaneous adjustments that can be made before one of the inputs is dropped/missed. Which is to say - if you move 4 sliders at the same time as pushing a button or two one of those signals will not get through. This is really my biggest complaint about the system. I have learned to work and design around these issues and while annoying doesn't really keep me from using them regularly.
