Work in Progress; Sp-404

Post by mostblunted »

So, the 404 doesn't really look 'great' for hip hop production.
I'm creating a 'custom' 404. I just bough the faceplate and will start with the graphics now. It won't look 'great' but I hope that it'll come out aite'.
It will be quasimoto themed. Mean I'll take the colors from the further adventures cover and the quasimoto logo.

The only problem is, that the effect list won't be readable anymore.
Any suggestions?

Im not too sure what the best thing to do would be- just an idea would be paint over it and find out about image transfer paper

word- I been thinking about buying a new faceplate and painting the whole thing white so its completely blank. I think a blank plate would be good to test your memory and it would look nice too.

I'll just memorize it.
I got the colors mixed (pretty close to the original) and also finished the logo cut
I'll prolly finish the whole thing tomorrow

The easiest way by far is simply make a sticker of the list and stick it on.

I still have the original panel, I'll just hang that on my wall.
I know all the numbers of the effects I use anyway.





I'm 90 % done.

I have to say that I'm loving how it came out. Seriously I think it looks great.

I'll post everything as soon as I mounted the panel!
