Anyway, this is a highly specialized 'controllerist' unit. Most people will be happy with regular MIDI controllers.]]>Jan 14th 2010 11:13AMhttp://www.engadget.com/2010/01/14/moldovers-limited-edition-mojo-midi-controller-for-serious-musi/http://www.engadget.com/2010/01/14/moldovers-limited-edition-mojo-midi-controller-for-serious-musi/Jan 14th 2010 11:36AMhttp://www.engadget.com/2010/01/14/moldovers-limited-edition-mojo-midi-controller-for-serious-musi/http://www.engadget.com/2010/01/14/moldovers-limited-edition-mojo-midi-controller-for-serious-musi/Jan 14th 2010 11:47AMhttp://www.engadget.com/2010/01/14/moldovers-limited-edition-mojo-midi-controller-for-serious-musi/http://www.engadget.com/2010/01/14/moldovers-limited-edition-mojo-midi-controller-for-serious-musi/Jan 14th 2010 12:01PMhttp://www.engadget.com/2010/01/14/moldovers-limited-edition-mojo-midi-controller-for-serious-musi/http://www.engadget.com/2010/01/14/moldovers-limited-edition-mojo-midi-controller-for-serious-musi/Jan 14th 2010 11:20AMhttp://www.engadget.com/2010/01/14/moldovers-limited-edition-mojo-midi-controller-for-serious-musi/http://www.engadget.com/2010/01/14/moldovers-limited-edition-mojo-midi-controller-for-serious-musi/Either I spend a fortune buy a sweet hand built one like this, or I spend close to a fortune and 3 months of my time to design and build one by hand.
Screw it; I'm just going to get a bunch of little cheap controllers and use them together.]]>Jan 14th 2010 11:26AMhttp://www.engadget.com/2010/01/14/moldovers-limited-edition-mojo-midi-controller-for-serious-musi/http://www.engadget.com/2010/01/14/moldovers-limited-edition-mojo-midi-controller-for-serious-musi/http://www.sparkfun.com/commerce/product_info.php?products_id=9108 .

I guess the wood box would retail for around another 200-300

so what the 1,300 dollar markup going to?]]>Jan 14th 2010 1:03PMhttp://www.engadget.com/2010/01/14/moldovers-limited-edition-mojo-midi-controller-for-serious-musi/http://www.engadget.com/2010/01/14/moldovers-limited-edition-mojo-midi-controller-for-serious-musi/Jan 14th 2010 1:03PMhttp://www.engadget.com/2010/01/14/moldovers-limited-edition-mojo-midi-controller-for-serious-musi/http://www.engadget.com/2010/01/14/moldovers-limited-edition-mojo-midi-controller-for-serious-musi/
Those touch sensor strips aren't cheapo pots. That twist-lock USB connector alone costs more than $10 at retail. I think you're vastly underestimating the price premium from the manufacture of premium small-run products.]]>Jan 14th 2010 2:56PMhttp://www.engadget.com/2010/01/14/moldovers-limited-edition-mojo-midi-controller-for-serious-musi/http://www.engadget.com/2010/01/14/moldovers-limited-edition-mojo-midi-controller-for-serious-musi/

Bought a TheraminCD from Moldover. Came in 3 weeks, worked great.
What's your gripe and taking forever and not working as described?]]>Jan 24th 2010 12:59AMhttp://www.engadget.com/2010/01/14/moldovers-limited-edition-mojo-midi-controller-for-serious-musi/http://www.engadget.com/2010/01/14/moldovers-limited-edition-mojo-midi-controller-for-serious-musi/Jan 24th 2010 11:55AMhttp://www.engadget.com/2010/01/14/moldovers-limited-edition-mojo-midi-controller-for-serious-musi/http://www.engadget.com/2010/01/14/moldovers-limited-edition-mojo-midi-controller-for-serious-musi/
