Deus Control cover case

[Mtcooley]

Is there any neoprene or canvas control covers for the Deus here in the USA ?
I have seen a few in the UK, but not many choices here in the US.

They have a silicone case for the control unit . . . . .and you might take the unit into a store that sells iPod accessories and see what they have to offer

I went to a $5 and Below store and bought an iPhone 5 armband case, cut the straps off and cut an arch shape int the backside for the attachment to the shaft. It works great and was cheap!

Great Idea, I put mine in a ziplock baggie. I hated it!!

You can buy these on Ebay for $13.99 and the control box fits perfectly inside. Be VERY careful how you mount the clip on the back of the case. It has to be as close to the bottom as you can or it won't slide onto the machine. The model you want is the WS-12

But where do you get the XP Deus clip to attach to the back of the case?

It comes with the Deus. It will be on the upper shaft.

Sorry if I'm being dense, but...huh? I assumed that the "clip" would be an accessory that looks like the clip on the back of the control box, and then clip into the piece on the top of the stem.

Is the solution here (I've seen the video before, but I've missed this point -- and have had my same question since I first saw it!) to remove that clip on the top of the stem? And then attach it to the box, and have it attach to the stem as the on-board clip does? Doesn't that prevent you from using it without the cover? Like I said, I feel like I'm missing something basic.

If it really means you can't use the control box without the cover, I'm not sure I love the solution. I'd rather be able to buy a plastic clip that mirrors what's molded into the back of the control unit. It'd be like the WS4 wireless headphone adaptor, except for the control box.

Thanks!
