OpenDeck midi platform - Make your own midi controllers

I’m back to thinking about making a custom 4 channel midi controlled mixer. Anyone used one of these for a midi brain before? I’m curious about it as it seems perfect for my needs, I just want to know if there’s any downside to it. Any help welcomed, as usual.

Did this thing ever end up going for sale? I saw the article, but never saw the unit become available on their website.

I was using teensies previously but have since switched over to Livid Brains (and brain Jr.) and absolutely love the platform.

That’s kind of the reason I’m asking. I first noticed this a few days ago and was wondering what other info there was. It seems perfect for a builder with no experience of coding. I’m that kind of guy, an electrician who can solder and fix - but I’m not learning a new language just for the sake of a few quid/dollars/Euros etc.

I was really hoping it was gonna go somewhere and still hope that it does. I know how to develop and just don’t like coding for midi. :-p It takes away from the creative flow. Devices like this and Livid Brain give you the freedom to do mock ups quickly and focus on the hardware itself.

Maybe check out this thread:

Thanks for that. Couldn’t find anything else on this.
