Concerning itself with creating products to solve problems, E-RM Erfindungsbüro has done just that with the Brightside.

"Installation requires no tools; all you need to do is screw in the studs"

Essentially it's two wooden side ends that are designed to fit the newer generation of Elektron boxes and raise them up in two different angles.

Compatible models are the Analog Four, Rytm, Octatrack, Monomachine MKII and Machinedrum MKII.

Installation requires no tools; all you need to do is screw in the studs, slot on the wooden ends and you're done. One thing they could do with are some rubber feet to prevent slippage.

I take care of the reviews on MusicRadar and Future Music magazine, though can sometimes be spotted in front of a camera talking little sense in the presence of real musicians. For the past 30 years, I have been unable to decide on which instrument to master, so haven't bothered. Currently, a lover of all things high-gain in the guitar stakes and never one to resist churning out sub-standard funky breaks, the likes of which you'll never hear.
