DIY: Project denon dn-hc1000
Posted on: 24.03.2011 by Harley Hendzel
Before I got my Midi Fighter, I was using the denon controller with traktor as an additional controller to use with my Kontrol S4.

It worked, but I wasn't fond of the buttons. After doing a lot of brainstorming today, I decided that I would mod the controller with arcade buttons. This will require the design of a new enclosure, desoldering of the old switches, and wiring from the buttons and encoders to the board. There are a total of 43 switches and 3 encoders. So, this will be a fairly robust controller.

The layout of the board is very simple:





I will post my progress as this project moves along.

Well, after some more planning, I chose not to use acrylic as the material for the enclosure. I chose something easier to work with that was also already assembled. After some thrift store
