Arduino MIDI Rotary Encoder Step Sequencer – Part 3

I am continuing my experiments with different ways of visualising a step sequencer and this comes from from a suggestion by Twitter user @AxWax - using a NeoPixel ring. https://youtu.be/u4WNbgCWvds 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 … Continue reading Arduino MIDI Rotary Encoder Step Sequencer – Part 3 →

Arduino MIDI Rotary Encoder Step Sequencer – Part 2

In my last post, I mentioned other display options for my rotary encoder step sequencer.  To be honest, I wanted an excuse to use some "LED bars" with a rotary encoder, so this post is more by way of an excuse to play rather than a serious option, but in reality it actually works quite … Continue reading Arduino MIDI Rotary Encoder Step Sequencer – Part 2 →

Arduino MIDI Rotary Encoder Step Sequencer

I'm thinking about other applications for a rotary encoder and one thought was to support a multi-step, step sequencer with just a single knob, so this takes the Arduino MIDI Step Sequencer and recodes it to use the rotary encoder and 7 segment display described in Arduino MIDI Rotary Encoder Controller. Here are some links to … Continue reading Arduino MIDI Rotary Encoder Step Sequencer →

Arduino Phased Step Sequencer

After using my slide potentiomers to control the timing and phase of rhythm, I wanted to turn my hand to pitch.  This is my first experiment. https://youtu.be/AWbLFKj6VMk Warning!

These are the key Arduino … Continue reading Arduino Phased Step Sequencer →

Multi-Mode MIDI Step Sequencer – CDR Format – Part 2

Part 3 details the design of a panel using a PCB manufacturer. https://youtu.be/YmQ7j-tDudk Warning!

These are the key Arduino tutorials for the main concepts used in this project: Arduino Analog Input Arduino Digital … Continue reading Multi-Mode MIDI Step Sequencer – CDR Format – Part 2 →

Multi-Mode MIDI Step Sequencer – CDR Format

When I put together the Multi-Mode MIDI Step Sequencer it was with an eye to creating some kind of "modular" style panel format.  This post documents the building of a "CDR format" (CD Rack Format) panel version. Part 1 (this post) details the build and testing of the panel. Part 2 updated and enhanced the Multi-Mode … Continue reading Multi-Mode MIDI Step Sequencer – CDR Format →

Pi Pico PIO Poly Tone Step Sequencer – Part 2

In this project I've added some basic IO to the Pi Pico PIO Poly Tone Step Sequencer. https://youtu.be/a5Mkd0wnbzs 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 tutorials for the main concepts used in this project: MIDI, MicroPython … Continue reading Pi Pico PIO Poly Tone Step Sequencer – Part 2 →

Pi Pico PIO Poly Tone Step Sequencer

In the next part of my messing around with the Raspberry Pi Pico PIO polyphonic tones, I've paired it up with my Pi Pico Keypad MIDI Step Sequencer using my Pimoroni RGB Keypad. In part 2 I add some MIDI controllers. https://youtu.be/JJSOUhSP038 Warning! I strongly recommend using old or second hand equipment for your experiments.  I … Continue reading Pi Pico PIO Poly Tone Step Sequencer →
