Decksaver for OTMKII?

Elektron Gear Octatrack
#1

Been looking for a decksaver for the MKII, but cannot seem to find one.

Does the MKI decksaver fit the MKII?

#2

I hope so, at least the official elektron lid fits great.

Isn’t the official lid was the only one available? Decksaver didn’t have anything for the MKI listed when I was shopping for one and checking on the site now, the only cover for Elektron gear they’re offering is the Analog Keys.

I wouldn’t be at all surprised if they were making them as OEM products for Elektron, though, the official lids look very Decksaver-y.

The Elektron PL-2 lid is 100% made by Decksaver, for sure. It’s also been confirmed to fit the Mk2 perfectly.

Here’s a fun fact-

The official Elektron ones are actually made by Decksaver.

So Decksaver are the official ones :smile:

Nice one. I need to get one ordered, too!

Could you, please, tell the height of an Octatrack with PL-2. Thanks!

#12

Dimensions: W 340 × D 184 × H 63 mm

So I’m assuming the size with the PL-2 on top is about 70mm, right ?

#13

Should be right, thanks!

#14

Please check if you need this measurement to be precise though, I don’t have a PL-2 so I can’t measure (just trying to help), but from looking at pictures, it doesn’t look like it increases the height too much.

#15

My MkI with the PL-2 on is 71mm high including rubber feet.

Question, how snug does this thing fit on the OT2? Do you need some kind of elastic to stop it sliding off?

I have one, and it’s perfect. Not too tight, not too loose.

The one I had for my op-1 was super loose and almost pointless, but the Elektron ones have all been fine.

nobody has mentioned, even in the listing on the elektron site so i dont know if its an obvious knowledge but is the lid able to go on with the cables all plugged in still? I feel like it would be unreasonable if we had to remove all the cables before being able to cover it with this lid right??
