    Default Arcade Warrior: Yet another DIY MF Pro Clone

    Hello every one,

    I really love the MIDI Fighter, and the MF Pro. They are really amazing devices, good job to DJTT for building those. But because I'm a dieheart DIY fun, I really wanted to build something as cool and expressive as the MF Pro.
    And thus the Arcade Warrior was born ( a shameless MF Pro ripoff ) though I did add a touch of extra elements. but no LED feedback since I didn't want to get into all that mess of multiplexing.
    Thanks to DJTT and all the open documentation I was able to replicate all the MIDI messages the MF sends, and so I can natively use all the mappings in Traktor and Ableton

    Also I have developed a MIDI Remote Script for Ableton Live of my own, that also work on the MF Pro. link



    also here are couple of demo videos (one of them is my entry to the Video Competiton)





    you can get more details on my website

    Thanks! No not at all! I haven't done full LED feedback so this saved me from the hustle of multiplexing the LEDs, I just wired all the potentiometers and buttons straight to the microcontroller break out board I made. Very simple wiring.
    PS: I used Teensy++ for this controller
