Arcade Warrior: Yet another DIY MF Pro Clone

Hello every one,

I really love the MIDI Fighter, and the MF Pro. They are really amazing devices, good job to DJTT for building those. But because I’m a dieheart DIY fun, I really wanted to build something as cool and expressive as the MF Pro.
And thus the Arcade Warrior was born ( a shameless MF Pro ripoff :roll_eyes: ) though I did add a touch of extra elements. :smiley: but no LED feedback since I didn’t want to get into all that mess of multiplexing.
Thanks to DJTT and all the open documentation I was able to replicate all the MIDI messages the MF sends, and so I can natively use all the mappings in Traktor and Ableton :slight_smile:

Also I have developed a MIDI Remote Script for Ableton Live of my own, that also work on the MF Pro. link

Thanks! :smiley: No not at all! I haven’t done full LED feedback so this saved me from the hustle of multiplexing the LEDs, I just wired all the potentiometers and buttons straight to the microcontroller break out board I made. Very simple wiring.
PS: I used Teensy++ for this controller
