I've revisited my Arduino MIDI Step Sequencer and added different play modes and LED indicators, but I started to quickly run out of IO pins - so I dug out a Pro Mega 2560 board that I've been meaning to try out for a while. You can read all the details below. Update: There is now … Continue reading Multi-Mode MIDI Step Sequencer

Arduino MIDI Mux Step Sequencer – Part 2
By way of completing this initial look at multiplexing potentiometers, this is how I used a Sparkfun 16 port multiplexer in my Arduino MIDI Step Sequencer. https://youtu.be/MiPyJrPlmVs Warning! I strongly recommend using an old or second hand keyboard for your MIDI experiments. I am not responsible for any damage to expensive instruments! These are the key Arduino … Continue reading Arduino MIDI Mux Step Sequencer – Part 2
Arduino MIDI Mux Step Sequencer
If you keep using single IO ports of the Arduino for your controls you reach the limits pretty quickly. In terms of analog IO that is six inputs for an Uno and eight for a Nano. The solution is relatively straightforward however, use a multiplexer. This project inserts a 74HC4051 eight port multiplexer into the Arduino … Continue reading Arduino MIDI Mux Step Sequencer
Arduino MIDI Step Sequencer
This adds MIDI out capability to the Arduino Tone Step Sequencer. Here it is driving a Roland MT-32 paired with the Arduino Light Mozzi Generator – Part 2. https://youtu.be/nOx_mO8V0uY Warning! I strongly recommend using an old or second hand keyboard for your MIDI experiments. I am not responsible for any damage to expensive instruments! These are the key … Continue reading Arduino MIDI Step Sequencer
Arduino Tone Step Sequencer
I've been meaning to build a step sequencer for a while. This is device that you can use to repeat a simple sequence of notes over and over and build up interesting patterns. In the next part I'll be adding MIDI out. https://youtu.be/oCHl-sRMuUM These are the key Arduino tutorials for the main concepts used in … Continue reading Arduino Tone Step Sequencer
