Question about expanding the midi fighter

[Jason Cerna]

I wanted to know how much electronics knowledge I would to add the extra buttons, knobs and faders to the midi fighter? I have been studying up on basic electronics and I have a basic understanding of the midi fighter schematic.

And what other parts besides the faders, buttons and knobs would I need? I know the obvious, the wires. But would I need other parts as well?

I know how to and delsolder solder parts from my personal experience refurbishing 1200s.

In the schematic, I see the 10k resistors for the buttons. and they seem to be wired in parallel

I'm pretty sure the only thing you need besides the faders and pots is the new enclosure, but I'm curious to see the answers as well.

I have the parts for the new enclosure. I picked up some acrylic panels from home depot that I plan to use.

I too want to add 4 arcade buttons, 2 knobs and 2 faders to my Midi-fighter.

This link has a good article on adding knobs http://www.djtechtools.com/2010/02/0...sis/#more-4747

I would like to know what specs are required for the knobs and faders and where to buy them.
