Reply to Project: DIY Midi mixer.

Hi!
The last time it was a Guitar, now it is a MIDI controller i chose for my "autumn project".
I want to build a Midi-Mixer.
It should have 4 Line faders, 1 Crossfader, some potentiometers (4 band eq and gain per chanel, master volume, headphone volume), some buttons (cue per chanel, CF assign).
This controller should be added to my setup of 2 x1 and my audio2 and a xone (which will be almost useless then).

What midi "brain" would you reccomend me?

It will be at most the faders + 20 potentiometers + 10 buttons.

And did i understand that right, that I can use normal faders / pots / buttons, just as i would use them in an analogue mixer?

Have you got any wiring examples?

I am planing to solder everything together in a solid metall box and i will publish a layout plan in a few days.

I hope you can support me.
