diy controller

If I were you huey I'd get a novation zero mk11 and hack it up.. It's got led ring encoders enough analogue for 4 channels on the mixer.. And already has firmware and software so no programming is needed

Where is the fun in that? :P

I have looked at one of those in the past , might have to revisit it. This is mostly something to do with my son, but i figure if were gonna do it might as well put some effort into it, lol!!

So... here is the new layout for the new controller i'm wondering about.

[Nicky H]

I am currently finishing a prototype traktor controller which is a direct interface replica of the software, for this i have used the midi box system using the new NG system.

I have been building midi box stuff for years, the last thing i built was the only fully working replica controller of the MOTU BPM soft drum machine.

here is the finished unit.



I designed the whole thing from the ground up and used the midi box as the brain using midibox mios as the main software. the controller has a built in editor system so i do not need a pc editor and also has a small storage chip to hold different setups i can merge from one to the other in realtime.

The new project the Midibox ng has even more functionality why not take a look at that as a possibility? here is the link: http://www.ucapps.de/midibox_ng.html

That is very nice

My next project

That doesn't seem to hard! Mapping may be but I guess you won't have problems on that department ehehe.

My controller is already on the PCB. Today I'll try and do the 3D of it.

Want to keep simple as that. No additional functionality, just one layer to map some of effects settings from my main mapping to always have them available on the fly and without need for changing bank/page selection. New Livid brain junior seems pretty cool for this - it has 16 analog and 16 digital (LED) and it's already available in their store for 49 US. I'm very pleased with their components so I'll go for pots and pads as well, should be around 110 bucks total.

Looking forward to see where you're at

Seems to me a little pricey.

Let's see if i do it today (the 3D). Items are coming from China already to make it really happen. Design decided!

I agree, this keypads and spacers ain't cheap but I love the feel on them and don't want to go for arcades in this project. And rotary pots are metal and one of the best for price - 1.99$, great feel!

well... on that you have a point. i guess that if the shipment was cheap for portugal I would use some of their items but... not the brain but that's because i already know how to use teensy ehhe.
