The Aurora Open Source Mixer might be the perfect solution for DJ types with a DIY streak that are currently unsatisfied with current mixers type MIDI controllers. I am all for open source projects like this but they are tricky to pull off. Most people don’t want to make there own PCB’s. And in the the case of this project the components are expensive if bought for one project. Keeping prices down with electronic is all about being able to buy in bulk. Thankfully there are plans for a kit. I am hoping it can work out to be affordable because it is an awesome little device that look great.

A kit would make the device accessible to a much wide group of musicians. Here is hoping there is an affordable kit soon.
