Headed in to the cold winter, perfect time to do some bench work.

I guess I'm testing the water to figure out the interest level in any of the MPC gadgets I've built.

1. MPC module in a wah pedal housing. See the second post in this thread: viewtopic.php?f=19&t=4535

2. Dual MPC modules in a floor box. Like this: viewtopic.php?f=19&t=4566

3. MPC analog delay module. Like this one: viewtopic.php?f=19&t=4661

Obviously, these are hand made one-offs. I might be open to selling the exact ones shown here. Or maybe I could build something from scratch. I guess I'm trying to get a feel for what people might be willing to pay for weird gear like this.

And, since I'm a bit of a nut when it comes to Electras in general (MPC specifically), I'd also consider trades. Here's a short list of things I really want:
- Outlaw bass
- X120
- Vulcan MPC X930/940/950
- X810
- cash

Comment here, or PM to discuss.

All 3 are nice options. I can tell you I'd be all over a delay unit. Yhe delay is just about a "must have".

To start with, building a delay will require a donor MPC module for the edge connector and the case.

All three are great but I prefer the Delay and the Wah Pedal enclosure. :up:

I've got a dead Power OD - missing the top of tha case where the edge connector sticks out. Is that still usable??

Usable, certainly, but without the top part of the case one would have to be extremely careful when removing and installing the module.
