What are you using as a FaderPort dust cover?

[Efrain]

I’ve been looking for a dust cover to protect my single fader unit. But short of a $50 decksaver, Ive had no luck. I find it difficult to spend a quarter of the price of the faderport itself on a dust cover. Thinking of just using a plain microfiber cloth.
What are you using to protect yours?

Thanks in advance!

Decksaver - excellent and made for the products

I have several of their covers and absolutely agree with you. But I’m using them on much more expensive gear so the cost of the covers is much smaller compared to the hardware. Just looking for options.
Appreciate your reply.

Are you wanting a dust cover or protecting it if someone accidently dropped a heavy object on it?

Really only concerned with dust.

I'm using a drawing my little daughter made on a giant piece of paper (from a roll of paper IKEA sells). It covers my FaderPort 8 as well as my AtomSQ and my keyboard .

You could make your own using vinyl from a fabric store.

Not many choices out there. Here's one I found but shipping might be an issue...

I have this one: tight fitting (quite stiff material) and a design flaw, because it does not take into account the plugged-in cables on the back of the Faderport. But besides this, it does the job.

I had totally forgotten about this place. They a huge selection of covers including the FaderPort series.

I saw that too but thought you didn't want to spend that much money.

The Digital Deck cover at $27 is reasonable and about half of the Deck Savers cost. Of course it’s just a soft cover and not as fancy.

What do you mean? Avoiding dust with a cover or by using your gear more often?

This might not be practical for your setup, but you can just get a sheet and cover everything - faderport, keyboard, monitor, etc.

You can make it even look nice and have a proud daughter while you're at it.

Lint free cloth is perfect as a dust cover. Add 10 minutes and a sewing machine for a snug fit.
