MIDIbox of the week (MB64 Traktor Controller of LO)

LO did it again :slight_smile:

This is a controller for Traktor or other DJ software, it provides the same extension port like LO’s MIDIbox MF

ouaaww!!! beautiful!!! ;D

how do you make the transport button?

very good work!

Congratulation!!

Hi Pilo

Thanks  :)

The transport buttons were very easy

The local surplus shop has these buttons with a removeable clear plastic top all I did was to pop the top off then print a design on the inkjet and stick it underneath.

peace

LO

Woooooohaaa! LO, youre just one of the best DIYers here. Full R E S P E C T.

Seems like you have much time and money.  ;)

Really only cool stuff coming out of your corner!

Question on that extension port: Does that mean, that you only connect that baby to your MBMF and thats it or for what is it?

That overlay is made again by that copy shop you mentioned?

blush…  blush

I dont think so

The extension port: Basicly I have 2 cores & a sid in a 1U rack case

One of the cores has 2 cables comming from it a 9 pin connector & a 25 pin connector. The 9 pin is for AIN extention devices only. The 25 pin (pictured) contains lines for MB_link (if required) DIN, AIN DOUT modules.

Therefore I can connect the traktor module, which only contains 1xAIN & 1XDIN or unplug and connect the other module which contains Motor faders, additional core etc etc.

When Modules are not connected I have “blank” plugs to fit on the ends of the cables which earth the AIN’s to stop them going crazy

The wires inside are a bit of a mess! I struggle to remember what I have done every time I need to open it up! (just finished upgrading to 18F’s phew…)

The overlay is a decal done with Lazertran (designed with CAD & Illustrator) and baked in the oven

was actually very cheap to make! My brother is a wood worker (plenty of offcuts!) & some people owe me favours! ie laser cutting panels etc.

ok, so the cores are actually in your rack, and you just connect wichever controls you want? that is a pretty cool idea!

and looks darn sweet too!

Hey LO,

 some very creative ideas there! and nice case too!

true work of art!!

super examples of the awesome flexibility of mbhp and mios!!!

keep up the good work.

Nice, I need to start to work faster!!! As we Midiboxers always say, one day should have at least 25 hours!
