That is weird. I expected more feedback on this :-) I'll keep posting updates anyway. I'll be mounting the second jog wheel today wich means the front panel will be finished hooray !

looking good man :)
why not set the encoders lower down below the front plate? You could use pcb mounting bolts like these:

Then I need to modify the front panel and I don't want to screw it up :-)
I'll make the screws from the top plate countersunk so they look better.
I learned a lot from this build. If I would make another one not many things would change but still, you can always improve.
Really liking this. You should do a tutorial.
At the end of the project I'll post my resources. Meanwhile feel free to ask what you want :-)
Meanwhile I made the holes from the perspex top plate countersunk. 1 done, 1 to go. Not my favorite thing to do as perspex cracks easily under stress :eek:
If you'll make a tut. A link of it would be in my signature for sure!
Hehe, would be an honour :-)
Meanwhile a pic of the countersunk screws on the jogs. A lot better imo.

Looking goooooooood
Ya i got a question:DQuote:

Well I use the CCS compiler in combination with a Microchip PIC. It's a very powerful piece of software and it lets you code in pretty standard C. Not that hard to understand. Though the compiler is not that cheap. The cheapest thing would be an Arduino. You can use an Arduino that has lots of I/O pins so you don't have to worry about multiplexing and so on. Otherwise with lesser I/O pins you could use serial shift registers like a 74HC595 and 74HC165.
Sending out midi with the CCS compiler is easy, I made a small function for it.
putc(); spits out a byte.Code:void midiout(int cc_data, int c_num, int c_val){
putc(cc_data);
putc(c_num);
putc(c_val);
}
