Breakout Desk – Turns Your iPad Into A Serious Music Tool

Reed makes a great use of adapting commercially available products like the iPad breakout connector and the iPad desk to create a simply do it yourself accessory. It looks pretty good, what do you guys think? To find out more go directly to Reed Ghazala’s Flickr page here
