Arduino Nano Multi-pot FM and String Synthesis

Having now built my Arduino Nano Multi-tone or PWM PCB this project is by way of preparation for its use in my Lo-Fi Orchestra.  Specially, it will support the existing strings and an expanded woodwind section, utilising the following projects: Arduino Multi Mozzi String Synth - Part 2 Arduino Multi-pot Mozzi FM Synthesis Warning! I strongly … Continue reading Arduino Nano Multi-pot FM and String Synthesis

Arduino Tones – A New, New Hope

Having just completed my Arduino Nano Multi-tone or PWM PCB Build Guide I wanted an example application.  So I went back to my Arduino Tone One Year On! project which was designed to do something interesting with my very first projects in celebration of one year of my blog!  At the time, I wrote: "Note it should … Continue reading Arduino Tones – A New, New Hope

Arduino Nano Multi-tone or PWM PCB – Part 2

This is the build guide for my Arduino Nano Multi-tone or PWM PCB. Warning! I strongly recommend using old or second hand equipment for your experiments.  I am not responsible for any damage to expensive instruments! These are the key Arduino tutorials for the main concepts used in this project: Arduino PWM Sound Output Arduino Multi … Continue reading Arduino Nano Multi-tone or PWM PCB – Part 2

Arduino Nano Mozzi Experimenter Shield PCB

This is a version of my Arduino Mozzi Experimenter Shield PCB designed for use with the Arduino Nano.  Specifically I've been looking at what it might take to get Mozzi running on the Arduino Nano Every, which is quite a different beast to the original Nano, but with the same pinout.  This board should be … Continue reading Arduino Nano Mozzi Experimenter Shield PCB

Arduino Mozzi Experimenter Shield PCB

Following on from my Arduino Audio Experimenter Shield PCB here is another shield, this time more optimised for experiments with the Mozzi synthesis library for Arduino. Update: Build notes are now available here: Arduino Mozzi Experimenter Shield PCB – Part 2 Warning! I strongly recommend using old or second hand equipment for your experiments.  I am not … Continue reading Arduino Mozzi Experimenter Shield PCB

Arduino Stackable TRS MIDI Interface

As Arduino MIDI Interfaces are so common in most of my builds, I decided to build a "stackable" module.  This was partly triggered by the release recently of the official Arduino "Make Your Uno" kit which comes with a synth shield you can build.  But it doesn't have MIDI so I thought something like this would … Continue reading Arduino Stackable TRS MIDI Interface

Arduino Nano Multi-tone or PWM PCB

My latest Lo-Fi Orchestra piece is calling out for more brass and woodwind, so I'm thinking about ways to expand the setup. One thing I always wanted to improve on is the banks of Arduino Nanos I'm currently using for brass and strings.  This PCB design will hopefully provide a much neater solution to my … Continue reading Arduino Nano Multi-tone or PWM PCB

Arduino Audio Experimenter Shield PCB

I have a number of Arduino projects that allow for some kind of synthesis to be output via a digital to analog conversion process.  This PCB brings three of those methods together into a single shield to support a range of experiments. Warning! I strongly recommend using old or second hand equipment for your experiments.  … Continue reading Arduino Audio Experimenter Shield PCB
