One project that has been lingering on my seemingly endless task list was to build a case for my MFC-101 / Switch box that is used for lighting control. I finally got around to finishing this project up. There are a few unique things about the project. First, It's completely wireless. THIS 12 Vdc battery is used to power everything so no power cable is needed. Midi is transmitted and received with a Yamaha MD-BT01 so no midi cables needed. Second, the switch box is a custom build. It plugs into the four Switch inputs and four Expression pedal inputs on the MFC-101. The switches are used for various momentary things such as Strobe, Blinders, Fog, Tap Tempo, Geysers.
The general configuration is:
