Hi, here’s a few pics of my LC clone. I’ve designed and optimized the layout for use with Cubase, and got the panel made at Schaeffer.
There’s also a little monitoring section so I have everything within arm reach.
The electronics worked great straight ‘out of the shop’, apart from a few minor glitches that I found out quickly.
I bought some nice illuminated buttons at digikey. They weren’t cheap at around 2€ a piece, but the idea being was they allowed me to save on the labelling by inserting tiny pieces of printed transparency foil underneath the button cap.
I made quite a few custom pcbs for this and will make these available to anyone that’s interested once I’m finished.
Cheers, and big thanks to all of you here, especially Thorsten of course 8)
Can I ask where you got the round 4 way pad with the button in the middle?
Just what i’m looking for…
Sure, i got it from reichelt, and its’ made by mec. You can’t buy it ready made though, instead you have to buy the siwtches and caps and solder them to a pcb though
I can give you the pcb file i made if youn need it
i currently have one of the prototypes of the new illuminated version of the multimec array switch here, its got a rubberised finish with in built led’s its very nice as well, i will stick a piccy up when i have 5 mins to.
Yes, the faders seem to be working perfectly. I haven’t tested it much yet, but I’ll report here as soon as I have, after I finished all of it and tried a project with heavy fader automation.
