Wish to everybody a fantastic time.
Sorry for some trouble with my English.
Now:
I want to build a "Studio-box for digitalization".
The purpose is to play and digitzed my old cassettes and vinyls.
Inside the *studio*:
RasPi2 and Hifiberry, power supply, pre-amplifiere, LS all in a wooden box,
maybe with one side from acryl,
including a place for a recorder for music-cassettes
in and out for LP aka Vinyl-player.
In-Output to RasPi and Hifiberry via a touchscreen, minimum lets say four inch.
separate volume control buttons to the LS.

So as this is stayed:
In this case how to connect a Touchscreen and which one?
[If GPIO - Pins are blocked]
On a easy way: no soldering, no extra programing.

Thanks for your answer,
wish all of you a
excellent time
cordially

  Hi Parallus,
  
  unfortunately there is no easy way. You will need soldering and programming. Have a look at the projects here:

  I couldn't find one that uses the Amp and a touchscreen, but you might get ideas from there.

  Hallo Daniel,
  thanks for your answer.
  >>You will need soldering and programming <<
  That's the RaspPi is made for. ...
  
  ... Let's see this one:
  What about to connect my tablet Galaxy Note 8 directly to the RaspPi2 (with HifiB's Amp on it) ?

  If you want to use a tablet, I would just use a Web interface on the Raspberry Pi and connect to this over WLAN. Almost all distributions have this already built-in.
