the monome community has reached new heights, self-organizing a relay-style tour featuring over 30 musicians, showcasing a diversity of musical usages of the monome controller.
check the tour dates for your city, support your local musicians!
to accompany the tour the community has produced a double cd compilation which will be available at each show, and online afterward if there are any leftover.

we had a leftover slab of local black walnut from our short edition of the five twelve which milled nicely into this solid-bodied two fifty six. the design and construction identically matches the five twelve (see the extensive build photos for details) but this 16×16 is fully bus-powered via the usb port.
this device quickly found a new home.
