  • Very excited...thank you for all the hard work, my Erica case LXR is my baby...looking forward to a new addition to the family. I do have a quick question, is there anyway to purchase some Sonic Potion stickers. I'd love to decorate my LXR
  • what kind of sticker do you have in mind?

    I have some left from superbooth.
    The only problem with those is that the sonic potion logo stickers turned out to be transparent 8-}
    and the other is a cheesy character ;)
  • That's perfect, my case had a small blemish and I'd like to cover it but I don't want it to be covered with any other logo other than sonic potions (I'm a purist lol!) i use my LXR more than my elektron uw or my rytm...it's become my go too drum. So It's deserves the extra love
  • The transparent on the black case would just look sik...id love to take a few off your hand

    Are we referring to the "metal" cases!? If so, YES!!! I want one. I just finished my LXR this past weekend. AWESOME project and Drum Synth, thank you Julian for making this available to people.

    I did change the downbeat buttons from black to red. i also changed the track buttons from black to grey. I also used Sugru to make the text on the case pop a lil more.
  • yes. metal cases from erica are currently being produced :)

    Those Flickr images are iLL! I can't wait for one. Congrats on your first set of modular modules!
  • very nice to hear this! i will definitely be ordering when they are available.
  • I've only just joined the forum, mainly to say that I'm happy this is going to happen!
  • Would someone care to do a list of pros and cons of the new metal case, the Erica case and the original acrylic case please?

    I like all three for different reasons but maybe someone who changed from acrylic to the steel Erica could comment - and maybe someone who swapped out the Erica to the newest steel design might comment?

    Just interested to hear of other users' choices for when I finish the build and have to decide for myself :)
  • I have the Erica case. The steel cases are much stronger than the plexi cases. The looks are personal I guess.
    I don't think there are cons..
  • Thanks Shiftr.
    I just looked on the Erica site and can't see an LXR case in the Shop - are they listed elsewhere or not in production at the moment?
  • They are currently at the factory being made ;)
    so they will pop up in the shop as soon as I have them back in stock.
    They will be sold via the sonic potions shop, not over at erica.
  • Hoping news of Adrian's case will come soon
  • Great news!
  • Julian, I was actually enquiring about the Erica case for the LXR just in case (hehe) I get trampled in the rush for the next batch of your fine metalworkings..

    Thanks for the info though - I'm keeping up with the progress on here.
  • Any word on the metal cases?
  • i just received 3 big boxes with erica cases.
    currently sorting the smallparts and checking quality.
    should pop up in the shop over the next days =D
  • awesome! finished my build way ahead of schedule so now mine needs some clothing too.
  • erica enclosures are available in the shop again
  • Brilliant! Ordered one straight away!
  • Yes! I too ordered straight away. Thank you!
  • Case arrived yesterday, very quick service - nice case too :)

    Thanks Julian.
  • LXR looks so much better with the metal enclosure! The push buttons work better too, because the case fits better than the acrylic one.

    Thanks Julian!
  • Be careful with the rocker switch. Mine melted while soldering (!?!!) and no longer "clicks". Will need to get a new one.
