DIY rackmount rotary DJ mixer

[efinque]

Sup GDIY,

this is my latest project which I started yesterday.

Here are the parts:

Here's the back panel:

Here's the input section done with PFL:

Then the master EQ pots:

Here's the front panel as of now:

I've yet to add master out, master vol and headphone amp/output jack.

I'll post a schematic once I'm done.

Any thoughts/ideas?

Is that a plastic 19inch rack mounting enclosure? Never seen one of those before.

Cheers

Yeah it's from RND Components. It's got ventilation on the sides, not that there's that many active parts inside.

The stereo channels are all passive. It's got a Kemo M040N preamplifier in the mic channel and I'll try to hook up an either NE5534 (IC) or BC547 (transistor) headphone amp.

I have one BC547 module on the shelf but iirc it required a pot to ground for volume control.

I'm thinking master preamps too. Those NE5534 modules are a PITA to assemble in quantities.
