OpenDECK - open source DIY midi controller

Yes it is! Really can't wait until everything is finished.

I tested the MIDI out from Traktor the other day to see how LEDs behave and everything works. Right now I'm waiting for few more PCBs since I don't want to end up with one gazillion wires underneat the plate. Remember this is a one-man project so progress is slow, but it's there. Here's how LED look like when everything is lighted up:



And here's a bit of cosmetics



Sorry for the camera, didn't have better around.

Touch sensitivity would be piss easy to add; just need a metal arm touching the platter at some point (ANY point, even the shaft they're mounted on) going to couple of resistors and a capacitor.

What are those buttons and what are their dimensions? Could you post an Ebay link?

Drill hole is 12mm, outer dimension is 19. All the dimensions (including those) are in CorelDraw layout that's on GitHub.

I'll leave that for OpenDeck 2, together with LCD screens, disks spinning like a vinyl etc.

Sounds pretty nice mate

Any performance soon?

Well I hope, I've finished all the PCB boards design just now, I'll order them in a day or two so everything should be ready in about a week.
