Yes. The colour scheme would have been
somewhat hip about twenty years ago.
Keep us updated - I'm sure I'm not the only one
whose interested in a custom job.

That sounds fun! I'd love to cool down that Pill-poppin' Yellow glare this thing gives off. Paint it cobalt blue or something. I told the E-mu rep last week that color choice was a big factor in my decision between the XL and the MP. Ultimately I took the XL because the sounds fitted my purpose better, and they didn't have an XL ROM in stock I could buy and add to an MP. No offense if that yellow is someone's favorite color, but yeah, I'd paint the sucker Novation Blue. Mmmmm.

Yeah, I know Emu DOESN'T recommend it, but is it pretty easy to get the knob board out? Do the knobs just pull off? I'm seriously thinking about doing a custom paint job on mine, and then having a third party re-silkscreen the lettering on. Anyway, for those that have pulled it apart already, is it difficult to get the case by itself?

Since you've already opened it up (otherwise I would recommend taking it
to your dealer) here's how to put it back together. Put the front panel
face down on something that doesn't push where the knobs go (so you can
put the knob board back in without it bumping anything). Then, one by
one, put the lightpipes in with the two prongs on the left and right
(horizontal). Then put the board carefully back down on the lightpipes
and screw it back in. I suppose you could put a little blob of
superglue around the top of the lightpipe ring. Make sure they all dry
before you put the board in however.
