Hello everyone--
I just finished a fun project to make a fabric cover for my Studer A80 RC MK II. Not being able to sew, I carefully measured the unit on its stand, bought some fabric, and asked a friend who is a capable sewing machine operator to make it for me. I was very happy with the result, but felt it needed one more thing to make it complete--a logo. So, I took a digital photograph of the silkscreened logo on the deck's faceplate, enlarged it, and then mirror-imaged it in Photoshop. I then printed it on a sheet of iron-on transfer paper for inkjet printers. Ironing it onto the cover was easy. You can see the final result on my Studer A80 web gallery. Scroll all the way to the last two images to view it:

I've also made the mirror image photograph available for anyone who would like to download it for themselves:

Have fun--

Hi Jay,
I know that JFR was selling covers a while back. You should shoot him an email and see what he wants for them.

Hi Steve,
Thanks for the info.

Nice cover Kip.
In sewing, like construction, measure once - cut twice for the best results. Wait, maybe that's the other way around.

Good job, Kip! I plan to do something like that, as well as an acrylic hard cover.
Enjoy,
Tod
