    Default Dimension standards for modern DJ controllers

    Hi there,
    Im new to the forum but not DJing. I have about 15 years experience but it is predominantly vinyl. I am an engineer and building a custom music device and would like it to conform to modern standard sizes (if there are any). What im building would probably be closer to the size of a controller rather than a turntable.

    My question is: is there any size standards with DJ controllers like there are with turntables? I am most interested in the height dimensions so everything will sit flush.

    Any help would be great.

    No not really - there are lots of different controllers and they are all different height, width & depths.
    If you are building something to work alongside a mixer then I would say make it the same height as the mixer you have in mind but otherwise build it to whatever you feel is right.

    Or add legs like the D2 does so you don't need to buy a stand/case and they can be folded so it takes less room in your bag.
