I want to build a midi controller. As a interface I would want to use the Behringer X-Touch, which has motor faders, displays and encoders.

Based on the attached pdf it seems that the X-Touch and its faders, encoders and displayed can be controlled via a UDP connection and network messages. The controller has a Ethernet port.

Should ia direct UDP connection to it via Teensy 4.1 and it’s Ethnernet port work or do I miss something?

Yes you can, it uses rtpMIDI and there already happens to be a library for it that works with the Teensy: https://github.com/lathoub/Arduino-AppleMIDI-Library
I've only tested this on a Macbook with the Macbook connecting to the Teensy 4.1, but the library does support the other direction if you connect to a known IP Address it should have no problems connecting to the Behringer standalone.
