Studio Dust Covers (APC40, etc)

Post by exper » Sat Jun 26, 2010 12:58 pm

Hello All,

Does anyone know of a source for cheap dust covers for gear? I'm tired of having to always dust my equipment and I'd like something like those stretchy covers for keyboards, but for smaller gear like mixers, apc40, maschine, etc. Anyone?

Thanks

I have covers for all my gear made by lecover.com, very good quality and good prices. I think my APC one was around $18? He does custom orders too, so you can get a cover for anything you want if you give him the dimensions. Ignore the tacky and dated website, this guy does a GREAT job.

Thanks Tarekith, I'll check them out. And, thanks for the suggestion cacti, but we always have people over visiting the house, and my studio is in a fairly prominent room. I need something a little more attractive.

I went to a embroidery store and bought some really really nice fabric to the size of my gear to lay it over, in black.

Used toilet paper is the cheapest option.
