Questions

What parts does the Ssl midi controller use?

61 parts, built around the CD74HC4067M and WS2812B-MINI-X2. The full list of its parts is on this page, with links to each part's symbol and footprint where PCBKit's library has them.

Where can I download the Ssl midi controller KiCad files?

From the yves-obreykov/reason_ssl_midi_controller repository on GitHub, at the commit this page was made from: the board is Hardware/ssl_midi_controller/ssl_midi_controller.kicad_pcb and its schematic Hardware/ssl_midi_controller/buttos_and_leds.kicad_sch. PCBKit opens the board in the browser, with nothing to install.

Can I use the Ssl midi controller design in my own project?

Its repository publishes it under the MIT licence: you may reuse it on that licence's terms (keep the author's notice, and for a copyleft licence share your changes alike).
