I’m already working on midibox ng. Using core stm32f4 module. I have connected 88 fatar tp/20 keyboard, pitch/mod wheels, sustain and expression pedal (as aftertouch).
Now I’v got 25 motor faders ALPS K type and want to make 24 channel console (+1 fader for master volume). Every chanell will got 3 buttons (rec,mute,solo) and 64 endless rotray encoder + aditional buttons.
It will be around 90 buttons with LED, 64 endless rotary encoders, 25 motorized faders.
Is it possible to get the keyboard + console on one core module? Or i need to get one module for keyboard and one module for console?
Next question is what do i need?
I know that for motorized faders it will be 4x MF_NG and 2x MIDI IO, for rotary encoders will use AINSER64 and for buttons and led go with DIN/DOUT or DIO_MATRIX?

I wouldn’t recommend that, because by doing this you lower the resolution of the velocity of the keyboard, because more DIN/DOUT have to be scanned.

Rotary encoders are also digital. So AINSER64 is not helpful here. For normal pots you want to use AINSER but for encoders you’ll need to go with DIN-modules.
