We had an early look last week at the upcoming Mawzer Control Surface (http://createdigitalmusic.com/index.php?option=com_content&task=view&id=453&Itemid=44), a modular box that lets you combine faders, knobs, and controls via plug-and-play modules to form whatever control box you can imagine.
Since then, the Mawzer folks have gradually been feeding us more details. Finally we have a high-res image to drool over (http://www.mawzer.com/Image/mawzer1.jpg) (also shown at right; click for full version), which shows a configuration for DJs and laptop musicians. Looks like top-quality gear if they can pull it off. Mawzer has also posted a preliminary module list:
POT : 4 potentiometers
FAD : 1 fader 10cm
ENC : 4 encoders
BUT : 4 buttons w/Led
XFD : 1 DJ crossfader (6cm) + 2 buttons
TCH : Touchpad (5*4cm) + 2 buttons w/Led
KBD : 12 buttons (BankChange style)
VUM : Stereo Vu-meter
Prices for modules are from 25€ to 45€ HT.
