albanyaka51 Posted January 5, 2013 Report Share Posted January 5, 2013 Hello, I'm a DIY beginner and I plan to make a midibox SID with the complete control surface (step C). So far I think I understand pretty well the construction process but I have a (probably silly) question : what kind of switches should I use for the control surface ? Thanks.

nILS Posted January 5, 2013 Report Share Posted January 5, 2013 Welcome aboard albanyaka51 :flowers: You want momentary closing switches. What kind you use is entirely up to you. Typically "tactile switches" are used as they're easily available and way cheaper than nice push buttons. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

albanyaka51 Posted January 6, 2013 Author Report Share Posted January 6, 2013 Thank you very much for your quick answers ! Actually I missed the mounting scematics of the buttons (at http://www.ucapps.de/mbhp/mbhp_dinx4_32buttons.pdf) and it's now very clear for me :smile: I may have other stupid questions like this before ordering all the stuff. Should I edit this post ? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
