Elektron Musical Instruments

I've uploaded the pictures in the photo section.  You can look at
those for reference.

I was surprised yesterday morning when I saw the package outside my
door.  So I decided to carry it for work.  I have a 1 1/2 to 2 hour
commute.   I thought it was very comfortable.  It's made out of the
material like many guitar cases.  It did find it odd that a few
stitches were hanging out here and there but they weren't major flaws.
 For the price?  The zippers are quite sharp and difficult to move.  I
expect they will losen up.  It has a long adjustable strap and a large
clip and hoop on one end.  The strap is very soft and comfortable.  I
felt little strain on my shoulder for the commute.  I had a rather
thick paperback an iPod and an umbrella in it.  It has a large outer
pocket that could hold @ 4-5 stacked CD cases.

The inside has a velcro strap to hold down your machine and a divider
that has velcro ends so it's adjustable.  It was a little difficult to
get the MD in there but with some adjustment with the divider it was
easier.  The divider provided adequate protection on that side (16
button side).  I could fit in the power supply a stereo cable and
three mono cables.  That seemed to be the maximum.  I could fit two
midi cables and much more (cables? laptop soundcard?) in the outer
pocket.  I could also fit the manual in.  I'm not sure how many
manuals or magazines could go in there.

There is a grey thin yet thick protective pad on the top.  This is
great for the knobs.  I have a problem of it being a bit too short. 
It can easily shift to one side and leave a knob or two exposed.  I
think it would be much better if they made it 1 or 2 cm longer. 

I also think the sides and top part (audio I/O side) could use more
padding like the top knob pad.  They do have padding but it's quite
thin.  I could feel the corners of the MD.  They are quite sharp.  I'm
not sure what this could do in the long run.  

All filled up it was quite comfortable with the strap.  I was in my
underwear so I didn't take a picture of that.  It's a nice bag.  I
guess I could use it to take my MD to a friends or something.  I
wouldn't travel with it.  It is also a nice bag for just carrying
books or whatever to work or school.

As for the price, it's a bit too much I think honestly.  For the price
I think it should have better protection considering a foam filled
pelican case is the same price (without shipping).  I think the
quality could be better (hanging threads).

On the plus side it's a cool bag.  No doubt.  I'm happy with it. 
Besides I haven't bought anything significant for myself in months.

Next up:  Opening the MD.  I've to go get a TAC 10 driver first.  I'll
include a little lession on the behavior of metals and bolts.
