It's been in the back of my mind for a while, but I've been really busy this year. I keep track of all the gear that goes through my shop on a spreadsheet, and there's over 190 entries for this year. That doesn't include some bigger jobs that get their own spreadsheet, like Steve Widman's 32 ch Series II (caps, chips, IC sockets, various upgrades etc) and Drew North's 32 ch Elite (selective re-capping and upgrades, fully upgraded master section) and many house calls and road trips...over 30 days worth. I will make an inquiry about plexi-glas fabrication tomorrow. best, Ike The Bubble wrote: I know its been a long time...but did anyone ever end building a keyboards/mouse caddy that glides goes over the faders? if so some pictures would be fantastic. thanks On Mon, Jan 21, 2008 at 11:09 AM, [email protected] <[email protected]> wrote: the white strip on our Elan is at an angle. the caddy would ride on the aluminum rails.

I guess if you normally use blue masking tape and permanent marker on your write strip that isn't an issue, but I sometimes use white board markers, which I can envision would be wiped clean after a more than one or two passes. ;-) Steve J -------------- Original message from Ike Zimbel <[email protected]>: -------------- Ohhhh! You want one that just goes over the faders! I thought we were talking about one that goes from the top of the faders to the base of the meter bridge... The same principle would apply to build one. Just curious, are you not using the faders much when you are mixing? best, Ike [email protected] wrote: 7 1/4" is the size between the rails on the fader area on my Elan. That is where I have always wished I could have a caddy. On Jan 18, 2008, at 4:05 PM, Ike Zimbel wrote: Uh...can't be 7 1/4"...that's like a Mackie 1202 or smaller.

My tray for script was indeed shorter and ran half the length to the top, but I also made one the full length for my automation CRT VGA monitor that ran the full length from scribble strip to the edge of meter bridge. You can also add a 1/2" piece of square plexi to the tray to act as a stop so the copy doesn't slide off the tray. Just use a little super glue to the piece and glue it wherever you want. Very easy to make, looks great and allows you to see the knob positions under it. George On Jan 18, 2008, at 9:38 AM, Ike Zimbel wrote: That's about what I had in mind. You can probably use a heat gun instead of a torch. Also, George, from your description, it sounds like yours was more like half the distance from the faders to the meters...did it come down between the Eq/Insert/Filter switches and the HPF pot? I was thinking of a full length one that would go from the write strip at the bottom to the angle between the top of the strips and the meters. I can still check into getting these fabricated if there's interest. best, Ike George Luif wrote: Hi everyone, I made a tray out of plexiglass. Just heat the area you need to bend with a propane torch until it is pliable enough to bend over the edge of a table. Then just attach some of those felt pads to the sliding area and your good to go. I used 3/8" thickness. One end would travel in the scribble strip and the other where ever you have clearance between knobs. Mine was made up to fit a 48 frame Elite and was used for everything from a Lex 480 stand to script tray. It worked quite well. George, Flashpoint Academy On Jan 15, 2008, at 11:22 AM, Ike Zimbel wrote: Hi Eric, I am pretty sure that a separate design for the Elite and Elan would be required. The Elite modules are definitely longer than the Elan. Also, doesn't the Elan (or maybe only the Elan II) have some kind of downward slope at the tape strip? I could come up with something for both desks, given a bit of time. Also, I would need measurements from an Elan as I don't have one under my care locally (Steve J.???). best, Ike [email protected] wrote: If somebody can come up with some plans I bet a few of us could use one of these. Would it fit on all the Aluminum frame Neoteks? (Elite or Elan l or ll) group buy!!?!

That one has an aluminum frame and smoked plexiglass inserts and some kind of roller on the bottom, which I have never looked at too closely. I would think you would have to get one fabricated. Try a display company as they work with those materials a lot. If there isn't a display company, try a sign company or a metal fabricator. Good luck!

(So I can place keyboard and mouse above knobs) I have emailed sytek, but no response as yet. Any ideas would be awesome.
