Cool is an understatement! That is so cool in the alumium suitcase and the nice panel...! I would love a MB64 like this. What do you use it for, the right part looks like NI Traktor.

First, sorry for my english(school is far).

In fact i use it with Ableton Live 2. First 8 tracks on the left are for the mixer(pots are for effects), the four push button under the lcd are for displayed menus. The square part under could be named transport, the four push buttons are to change scenes(up, down), play them, stop, etc... the right fader is also to select line but faster. The down crossfader is use on the crossfader of Live, and the other faders and pots are master effects.

I use only Ableton's midilearn for the moment, so i can reasign pots when i want to, even when playing. I've not find yet the definitive configuration.

Leds and push buttons on the top and bottom are not connected yet cause leds are "flying", but it will be done soon.

The box and the knobs have been made by my friend Dav, who is a resin specialist(it is his job ;)). Thank you Dav ;D.

I will put more pictures on my page tonight if i've got time.

Wow your friend Dav does a darn good job! I'm sure I'm not the only person around here wondering if he sells to the public  ;D

hey ToFiC--

you say you use your controller for live...is that right?
how do you trigger start your songs? ???

i'm designing my midibox64 controller right now and i was thinking along the lines of video arcade style buttons, but the question is can i assign those to trigger start my songs...in addition, would i have to trigger those in a particular view? session or arranger?

and i really only need two channels, i really don't have any idea where to start in terms of design, can you/anyone help me out in designing something for live, but really just dj'ing two tracks at a time (one into the other)?

Sorry, i didn't came here for a long time.

In live i play "line by line"... I use only the session mode and i start every loops on a line at the same time.

If you want  to launch loop by loop you need to add push buttons on every "channel" (part) to start and stop.

You will have 2 buttons to go up & down plus your parts button to start & stop...

My  explaination is not very good :-\ , do you speak french?

This is awesome - I'm in the planning stages for building a Midibox for controlling Live, and this is very similar to what I was thinking of doing - including the built-into-the-case tip... Here's something, though - as far as triggering clips in Live - check the manual on page 290.  If you go into Midi or Key assign mode, in addition to setting a controller to change scenes up/down and triggering the whole scene, each track has a "Fire Selected" play button.  You can use this to fire individual slots in a scene.  You can stop by firing an empty scene. 

'm planning on putting 3 buttons per track in my box - record enable, fire selected and stop.

Anyway, great box with great ideas!
