will Seimitsu PS-14-KN work with midi fighters? Posted on: 02.09.2010 by Jacquiline Dua Id like to use clear buttons so I can put info in the button without having to use stickers... Does anyone know if these will work perfectly without modification? | |

| Irwin Ney 03.09.2010 | Man, DJTechToolers are trully arcade button experts I'm proud of you |
| Jacquiline Dua 03.09.2010 | yeah those look awesome... I have no idea how to get LEDS set up for something like that.. I would end up breaking something |
| Clyde Gundelach 03.09.2010 | here's an led mod http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=xbgSj...layer_embedded all sanwa and seimitsu buttons are arcade standard. just make sure you are buying the right diameter button. if you're limited to room underneath, you need to buy snap-ons, not the screw type. i used to build custom joysticks, and i personally know that this is the case |
| Jacquiline Dua 02.09.2010 | ah ok.. I was wondering... thanks everyone for the help and explanations! |
| Graham Frazier 02.09.2010 | In the picture, i believe they are just the standard sanwa buttons. The center parts from black buttons, then the rings from different colored buttons. |
| Jacquiline Dua 02.09.2010 | the only other solution which is just a workaround hack... would be to print some smaller circular things out.. and draw the symbol of what I would have put under the clear and laminate it and put some velcro on both sides... That way I could switch em easier... I only want simple toggling of on and off, but for epileptic style button mashing I would like to have symbols to show me if its a drump loop or vocal. This would also be a good way of getting UV colors in. Seems like modding just never ends |
| Jacquiline Dua 02.09.2010 | I mainly want the button part... the ring doesnt matter to me if its opaque... Im just wondering what they used here this one seems to have the same mounting diameter.. but also has this funky screw on cap

| Leeanna Ayla 02.09.2010 | I don't believe they'll work with a midi fighter. Might be able to make it work with an arcade VCI, but you would have to do your own holes. The Seimitsu

.
The Sanwa are very sensetive and even the slightest touch will get it off.
The Seimitsu uses a 2 step process instead, the button will be initiated when it is halfway down. |
| Jacquiline Dua 02.09.2010 | what does that involve though...? to install them? It sounds great.. Im just afraid that kind of stuff is over my head when it comes to using a soldering iron on a circuit board |
| Clyde Gundelach 02.09.2010 | If you want to take it a step further you can even install LEDs inside the buttons for extra eye candy |
| Jacquiline Dua 03.09.2010 | awesome... thanks! |
| Clyde Gundelach 03.09.2010 | Just make sure the seimitsu buttons are the same diameter as the sanwas and you souls be fine. |
