Building it this spring. Arduino based, touch sensitive jog-wheel, arcade buttons, and possibly a few surprises.
The only problematic part is construction of the jog-wheel, but I'm working on that.
I can hardly wait til time and funds come along

Fixing stuff that isn't broken.
Looks good nice design
Traktor S2 . Traktor X1 . Traktor F1 (in UPS hands atm) . MBP . TP2 . Reloop Rhp-10 .
Soundcloud.
Gone Vci 100 se arcade edition . Audio 2DJ . Launchpad . RMX . lpd8 .
That almost looks quality enough to sell O.O
Traktor/Itch: Xone Dx - MidiFighter x1
Ableton: Livid Code - iPad - KP3
Tech: Macbook Pro 17", intel i7, 8gb RAM, 500gb HD 7200RPM
nice design - I'm ordering my Arduino brain in the next week or so as well
don't forget to share any code you've written! (there's a thread on here with a load of Arduino links/info - post it in there if u can)
I doubt Ean would be very happy if I did
@MiL0: Of course. I'm doing the designing/electronics, the majority of the coding will be handled by my good friend / programmer slave who's working with me on it. He's not a dj, so I can't drag him on here (yet)
Thanks for the kind comments, I'll update as I go along

What Arduino board are you using for your design?
Regards the Touch sensitive jogs ... how about a hollow shaft encoder and pressure plate ?
Just an idea
@Fraganator: A present moment, a Mega2560. I need the additional digital inputs.
@Deevey: I looked into that. The problem with encoders is that they rarely are sensitive enough. I'm looking into a solution similar to what the VCI-100 does, with a grounding finger and an optical disk.
P.S. If anyone has any expertise on constructing jog-wheels or the like, do speak up!
Thanks

This. . .is. . EERIE!! :eek:
This almost looks like my design for my project Midi-Fighter. . .minus the platter control. . .
For the jogs, have you though bout purchasing Vestax jogs directly? or even purchasing a Mixtrack for their jogs, just in case for the LEDS for the jogs don't work for the Vestax ones?
BTW. . .GREAT LOOKING CONTROLLER, Safefire!!!!
