Arduino MIDI Rotary Encoder Controller – Part 2

Having just received back my Arduino MIDI Proto Shield PCBs I was thinking of a project to use them on and decided that a rotary encoder patch changer would be ideal, so this is a rebuild of my Arduino MIDI Rotary Encoder Controller using my MIDI proto shield. https://youtu.be/88TgJZBtC_8 Warning! I strongly recommend using an old or second … Continue reading Arduino MIDI Rotary Encoder Controller – Part 2

Raspberry Pi Pico Multi MIDI Router – Part 4

From the first time I put my Raspberry Pi Pico Multi MIDI Router onto protoboard, I thought it would be handy to have a PCB version.  This post describes the design process to do just that. Update: Find the Build Guide here: Raspberry Pi Pico Multi MIDI Router - Part 5 Tutorials used in this project: … Continue reading Raspberry Pi Pico Multi MIDI Router – Part 4

Raspberry Pi Pico Multi MIDI Router – Revisited

After publishing the details of my diy proto-board version of my Raspberry Pi Pico Multi MIDI Router I got into a conversation with @VE7FIM on Twitter about MIDI boards for the Pico and they very kindly offered to design and build a dual MIDI interface board for me for my Pico.  This was back in … Continue reading Raspberry Pi Pico Multi MIDI Router – Revisited

Arduino Uno Dual Merge MIDI “Shield” – Part 3

So this is by way of an assembly guide and review of the design and production. Warning! I strongly recommend using old or second hand equipment for your experiments.  I am not … Continue reading Arduino Uno Dual Merge MIDI “Shield” – Part 3

Arduino Touchscreen X-Y MIDI Controller

I have a list of other projects I'd like to use my cheap touchscreen MIDI controller for.  For details see the original discussion here: Arduino Touchscreen MIDI Controller. In this project I turn it into an "X-Y" controller - essentially a two-dimensional potentiometer.  Moving in the Y direction changes one value and moving in the X … Continue reading Arduino Touchscreen X-Y MIDI Controller

Arduino Uno Dual Merge MIDI “Shield” – Part 2

I've been meaning to have a try at PCB design for a while.  I'd like to add it to the list of things I'm amateurly enthusiastically ignorant about.   I've not seen anything like my Arduino Uno Dual Merge MIDI “Shield” available anywhere but it is built of individual designs I am very familiar with, so I … Continue reading Arduino Uno Dual Merge MIDI “Shield” – Part 2
