Hello,
I've been thinking of making a MIDI controller like the MIDI Fighter but don't know where to start. I would like to have the finished product to have the arcade buttons. I have the benefit of using my school's workshop so I can use the soldering stations and materials that are available.
I would fist like to say that I am a complete beginner of microprocessors and have not come around to them until I wanted to start on this project.
I started by asking for help on Reddit on how to make one of these MIDI controllers for myself instead of buying it for twice or three times the price. After reading and responding to the replies a lot of them mentioned starting the project using a Teensy... To me it is like an Arduino but ready to send MIDI signals right off the bat? I have no experience in electronics, all I have seen are projects such as this and a Teensy that I can afford. I would also like to make this box plug-and-play through USB.
Thanks in advance.
