30.12.2009 Midi Fighter Acrylic Sheets Template?! | 21 | 08.01.2010 |
I originally posted this in the General community and regardless of 40 views, nobody has chimed in? Simply put, I was told that if enough people were interested, we might be able to sway Ean and DJTT into releasing a .pdf, .eps, or .jpg of the templates for the Acrylic sheets for the MIDI Fighter.… | ||

07.01.2010 Midi-Fighter featured on Game Set Watch (and Kotaku) | 3 | 07.01.2010 |
I read Kotaku (a gaming blog) a fair bit, and some of the editors are well known for their love of arcade games (and especially the MadCatz SF Tournament stick!) ... so I was surprised to see a picture of a Midi-Fighter while catching up on stories this morning! This Thing With Many… | ||

31.12.2009 How do I set up a midi-controller>laptop>soundcard? | 9 | 07.01.2010 |
Hi people, I'm about to buy myself a midi-controller but I have a few questions that I would like to get help with. Since I already have an external soundcard (EM-U 0404) It feels unnecessary to buy a midi-controller with a build-in soundcard. But one thing that I don't really get is how I… | ||

30.11.2009 Controller build - problem with x-fader | 4 | 06.01.2010 |
Hello, I'm currently building a fairly basic controller for traktor, based on the u-hid chip. I'm having some problems trying to get a x-fader to work well though. I have tried a standard cheap linear pot that had a horrible feel to it and didn't seem to be linear at all (perhaps the shop gave… | ||

Recieved the Spin as Xmas gift. At first I was bit put off , but started playing with it and It's software and it was fun but, only went so far. If I could use my Traktor3 with the Spin it would be a sweet set up! But, I've only had to map one midi controller before and have little to no expirence… | ||

03.01.2010 Kaoss Pad Mini Settings | 5 | 04.01.2010 |
Hi. I use a kaoss mini as a send/return on my mixer when in DJing for delay. When I use a normal kaoss pad 3 I get a clean delay sound. When I use the mini I get quite a phased sound. When it starts up it says "Dir" which I assume means Direct. Am I doing something wrong here?… | ||

Hi everyone, I've decided to build myself a midibox with a mixer like design for use with my vinyl control setup. I've gotten most of the passive components (the pots and buttons).

04.01.2010 DjTT please invent replacement buttons for the smallest knobs on the VCI-100 | 1 | 03.01.2010 |
I don't like the smallest buttons on the VCI-100. Especially the ones above the FX controls are in the way, because they are too easy to press. I often press them accidentally, ruining the mix because it changes the FX settings. Has anyone come up with an idea to fix these buttons. They're… | ||

01.01.2010 VCI 100 sensor adjust screws | 2 | 02.01.2010 |
Anyone reckon the 2 screws to adjust this are really flimsy/difficult to adjust. If I turn them to full (max) the platters stick to red or delay on red before going back to blue. One is more prominent at doing this than the other. Does yours do this? Im in two minds wether this is a fault or… | ||

Hey folks, do you know any alternatives to the (freakin' expensive) effects unit from Pioneer? I thought about making one myself...maybe even out of a simple keyboard. My problem is the feel of it. Knobs/Faders/Joysticks would be a great addition. Maybe with a Midifighter ... i really… | ||

29.12.2009 FireWire RCA? | 2 | 30.12.2009 |
It seems like all the firewire sound cards aout there all have 1/4 inch audio outputs (firebox, audiofire, ect.), but that makes it always annoying getting an adapter or huge 1/4 inch to RCA cable so that you can connect to the amp. Are there any firewire sound cards out there that have RCA outputs? | ||
