Hi,
I want to build a custom midi Controller for Traktor 2(Dj program). My goal is to create a controller which has 2 turntable decks and a mixer. Just like
http://www.instructables.com/id/A-Framework-For-Making-Affordable-Stylish-Modula/
this one.I will need at least 19 axis(knobs), 6 sliders and 74 buttons. However I couldnt decide what teensy should I go for. Creator of that instructables used Teensy++ but Teensy 3.1 has more analog ports. So my question is Will it be logical to choose 3.1?
Also I want to make a shift button which makes us able to map 2 actions for 1 button.For example if you press a button without pressing a shift it will do the action1 but if you press the same button while shift is also pressed it will do the action2.So how I can make a shift method?(if shift option is too hard I will need more than 74 buttons)
There is another issue Modern Controllers have a encoder?(I really dont know the name of that electronic but let me describe that: it is like a potentiometer however it does not have an end,I mean you can rotate it forever also it has stoping points.It is just like the knob on cars radio). So when I rotate it clockwise it must select next song, when I rotate counter clockwise it selects the previous song.
If I accomplish that goal as I desired. My future plan for this project is to add led Output for the buttons(for example when I press play button Green led will illuminate). Will I need an additional teensy for the outputs?
