Great !
Where is your PC located? Internal?
And did you create an alu main frame?
What wood did you use for the case? Or is it metal?
16,5 kg is very ok !!!
maybe more pictures explains it:
the whole thing is on 70x100 cm 8mm thick wooden plate. X-station is held by double-sided sticking tape (i thing it was some 3M industrial construction tape)
Behind the controller is from right to left, next to each other: PC power supply - mainboard - DVD drive with HDD on top - 3x3 USB MIDI interface. Whole part behind the controller is covered by ALU cover, 2mm thick. The holes for all connectors and devices on the back side were cut on laser plotter, then the ALU plate was bend.
this was the initial idea, in google sketchup...
here you can see the ALU "cover" behind the controller...
Back of the monster - the power supply and PC part
the left back side - MIDI interface and connectors, audio IN and OUT, foot pedal connectors...
The X-station is powered over USB from PC inside, korg NANO things and the MIDI interface the same...
The side panels are wooden, don't remember what type of wood, but nothing special. Korg NANO, the monitor and the PC keyboard are held on top by velcro tape. Thats all, if you have the materials and electronic parts, not more than 10 hours of work.
just FYI it's running on audio-optimized win XP pro, 32 bit, Reaper...
... and is not for sale...
