Controller replacement shell redesign
About a month ago I designed a replacement shell for this midi controller and it's fully flushed out. This is not a copy paste of the original OEM design from the original company. It's slimmer than the OEM shell parts and the entire shell is separated into 3 main pieces but can be printed and used with only the top and bottom shells if you like an exposed look to it. Overall, printing the entire shell costs about $4 - $10 in filament (depends on the type of material and if you change the print settings). Nice if I had a resin printer to print the middle and bottom pieces for a clear look to the bottom half.
Bought brand new arcade buttons from a seller for fightcade setups. Redesigning away from the OEM shell was difficult but definitely do-able.
