I still wish I had one of the first run, I like the slightly bigger buttons and I like the apple look (lame I know) but they are wayyyy too expensive second hand.

I guess my 128 will have to be enough... :(

hehe

How many buttons do you need?
Would the Faderfox LX2 be a solution?

or the old one, different layout but no leds, the LX1?:

Still around 200€ - but a lot cheaper compared to the monome.

do your buttons need to light up? if not, i'm loving the korg nano pad...$60USD, 12 velocity pads that are assignable to note or cc. i'm reasonably sure you can hook up more than one at once. get clever with a usb hub and superglue and you could make yourself el monome mas gigante.

very nice, although.... why is it so deep? Seems like it's built to fit the monome and a bunch of other stuff.

I still don't udnerstand why the hell these are SO expensive and why there isn't a competition for them. A cheap one.
