Backlit-button-lovers of the world – behold the most massive monome yet. The “512″ is a super limited production run from pro-maker Brian Crabtree’s Catskill,NY based workshop, and sports the meticulous build quality typical to the monome brand. Check out more pics from his manufacturing process over @ monome.org.
And for those still wondering what the deal is with all these button grids – consider the following introduction from sam_square -










512! 512! Do I hear 1024?
That’s pretty awesome, but I find it hard to think about 1024 without wanting to just jump ahead to 2048.
Beautiful build, too. I think walnut/aluminum are my favorite wood/metal combination.
1024? 2048? guys, c’mon – i don’t wanna actually ‘know’ how many buttons my monome has – it’s all about the “*” !
