What's the use of faders really? They use so much real estate and the software jumps when you move them...encoders are betterTails wrote:Aww, no vertical faders?
Are you using MIDIbox to control it? I mean, is it functional yet? I'd be interested to know how difficult the the project seemed to you; I was a little intimidated when looking at the projects on the MIDIbox homepage...
No, it's all Doepfer gear. I too was intimidated by the MIDIBox homepage. Yes it's functional. The project took five months and a rediculous amount of money. But that's prototyping unfortunately, it's time consuming and expensive.
The unit gives jump-free control of up to 192 parameters and switching control of up to a further 49. Data is spread across four MIDI channels. Plus there's a crossfader. It outputs via USB and runs of mains-only via a power adapter (external). There's a few teething troubles to iron out - like my soldering is er...variable and I'd like to find some classier knobs.

Thaks very much Everything is panel mount. It's easier to prototype with panel mount.Vercengetorex wrote:Nicely done macro...
Its a bummer that the joystick was not made a reality.
What was your source on the larger lighted buttons, and are they panel mount or are they on a PCB under there?
Yes, the only joysticks I could find were £70. At the time I thought this was too much and I committed to a different layout. However, if doing it again I would probably go for it.
The larger buttons are not lit. I got them from Radio Spares (RS Components)
