@sefixm

This is the keyboard that started this entire thread.

Has anyone else noticed that this is a BTC5100?

I have two BTC5100s on my desk so it just dawned on me as I was reviewing some of the cool boards in this thread.

That is a good looking board!

ddrfraser1 · June 16, 2020, 5:46pm

Seriously? Is it a custom case or something? Yeah, nice looking board!

Yeah it looks like a custom painted steel or plastic case for the movie. You can almost see how the corners don’t line up perfectly, like it was glued or bonded together.

I bet it’s just styrene. Super easy to cut and bond into shape quickly for stuff like background props

Pi (1998)

Haven’t seen that film in ages and instantly knew what those were from. Probably my favorite of Aronofsky’s work, and with a killer late-90’s electronic soundtrack, too.
