So long story short, ive been lurking for quite a while now, preparing myself and acclimating so I didnt jump headfirst in to the deepend of a pool taller than I, but I think Ive learned enough. and for most *TLDNR*

But here's the pretty part.

Its meant for four deck control in traktor or whatever demon i choose that week, it has 12 meant for beat hopping dedicated arcade buttons, two shift function buttons on the outer edges, (blue) and 10 dedicated cue buttons (yellow) per deck. the section under the LED encoders are loops emulating the very simplistic numark mixtrack layout that i favor. You might ask why did i decide to build what i could buy for a grand. Well its because I needed a new project to baby. Im also a glutton for punishment. Plus saving a couple hundred bucks and having something that was 100% crafted by me for me well. cant beat that.

Im also designing a gear system for the Encoders in the Jogwheels, and will post how im using "lazy susan" turntable bearings to make my jog wheels. should be a fun thing to chronicle as I go along.

Also been chatting with the guys at mayhew labs, they have some neat stuff, one of the other projects on my stove involves some of their designs.
