The midibox is timeconsuming, and when i build it i want it to be exactly what i want straight away, not have to go through 3 versions, not being able to use it meantime. this uc-33 is not too bad either.. and is helping me greatly plan exactly for a midibox. I would really suggest this to anyone considering building one.

but, you will have all the parts for it.. all you have to do is take notes, figure what you could have done with it, then order the extra parts and rebuild your box.

nobody is going to get it right the first time. you are going to be switching it around and opening it for your months.

Good advice for sure. I have been using my Yamaha 01v as a controller and also going to check some others out soon. Don't really wanna spend more money on another controller so just gonna pop to shop and try them. I have already added some additional buttons to the original Maven.

i don't know if the original maven supports it , but i'd suggest implementing mackie control ... that way you can control 10 times as much parameters with the same number of knobs without manually reassigning them very time
ex: 1 or 2 channelstrips with some triggerbuttons and rotaries are enough if you can realtime switch the track they control

jonpaul - how is your project coming along?
Do you have any pictures to show your current stage in the project?

Cheers,

Ralph

Just about to start designing it on CAD. Got materials sorted. Trust me I'll let you know of developments

jonpaul · Post by **jonpaul** » Tue Nov 22, 2005 9:49 pm

Right. Have been slack on this one. My mate has now started the CAD and drawing out the components. Then its a question of drag and drop. Sweeeet! Stay tuned. Pictures coming soon I hope!!!

I dont think you will be able to build anything like a Maven mixer. You have small experiences with live so you need to spend more time with the software. Building a maven style of its quality will cost you big $$$$$. I know this because I spent over one thousand euro trying to build my version of my controler. I got help a technical person from university to help me'. It was a very stressfull journey for both people and after six months we gave up in agreement. I never even got to see it working. So many problems I ended up buying one off the shelf of the music store

I wish you luck a lot because I would like you to build one so to restore my faith building a controler of great quality can be done.
