Tx for the info and the tip Tri5onaut... :)


I just bought a 20" ribbon controller from Walking Stick via E-Bay.

This will fit perfectly on my Voyager SE as the color is almost the same... ;)


I also made an order of the MP-201 Pedal this week...but have to wait till the distributor will make an order for the region where i live...and it seems that this can take some time... :(

You can post images that are uploaded to a web server; either your own or a place like ImageShack (although, there are others that are better... ImageShack commonly blocks access from popular forums, sort of defeating the purpose. I'm sure someone can recommend a better image host; perhaps Flickr is a good site to use).

Looks like a nice item. The ebay store is currently empty... I'd be curious about a price as well.

So, you're the one, eh!?

I saw it yesterday afternoon while I was at work, and hoped it would still be there when I got home! Oh well, there'll be another one... I hope. I'm learning to live with the pain. :cry:

(I hope you're proud of yourself! Feeling guilty yet? :twisted: )

Anyway, enough of my rant, congratulations on getting there before me! Keep us posted on how it's working out.

Merry Christmas! :lol:

I am lucky on this day just before 2009... :D

Today my package arrived from the US containing the Ribbon Controller.

I took some pictures from the unpacking so you can see how this arrives....and yes....it's a marvelous piece and plays like a dream.... :)

I wonder if we had the Voyager's badge under the touchpad, would that affect the positioning of the ribbon controller?


Man that thing seems to be made for the Voyager!
