    Cool project. I made one as well but for VR, with buttons of different shapes. All in a printed case and with custom PCB.

    Works great but I want to redo one, this time with more knobs. They are such a pain to turn. Maybe just 6 knobs arranged in a line.

    BTW, what microcontroller are you using? And what software?

      This prototype is with a Arduino Uno, but i/o ports are all used now. I’m waiting for a Mega 2560 Pro Mini to arrive. Programming it with Mobiflight!

        Can you use multiplexers? I am using 5 shift registers and MMjoy to get 40 ports.

          That was my initial plan, until I found out about the 2560 pro mini with all those ports available out of the box - for only $9,- …

            That is an impressive amount of I/O indeed!
