Richie Hawtin took over Instagram on New Year’s Eve to showcase a custom version of his PLAYdifferently MODEL 1 mixer.
Built by his father Mick Hawtin as a Christmas gift, the mixer comes with “additional direct output modifications on the extended rear panel! Specially built to test next generation CLOSE live show ideas for the summer 2018 touring season!”
The pioneer electronic musician and DJ also added: “My dad’s always been my secret weapon, over the years customizing my studio mixers for the early Plastikman albums and, of course, modifying my @allenandheath Xone:62 and creating the first true midi-enabled DJ mixer!”
