Building Custom Midi Controller

Building Custom Midi Controller

Interested in making a custom midi controller I just had a few questions from anyone with experience:

  1. Where do I buy parts? (knobs, buttons, faders, etc.)

  2. Where do I get the central part that would be the core?

  • are their different types for different uses?
  1. Once I setup parts and solder to the central core how hard is it to set-up with computer?
  • is there extra software I need to download to get it working?
  1. what types of casing do people use often?
  • wood, metal, fiber-glass?

Thank you any information would help and be greatly appreciated :slight_smile:
