Arduino with Multiple Displays – Part 3

Whilst messing around a little more with my Arduino with Multiple Displays – Part 2, I've optimised the code a little and found out a bit more about these displays! In this part, I'm actually using a PCB that can hold four displays, powered by a Waveshare Zero device. More on that here: Waveshare Zero Multi … Continue reading Arduino with Multiple Displays – Part 3 →

Arduino with Multiple Displays – Part 2

As I mentioned in my last post on Arduino with Multiple Displays I'm going to look at other microcontrollers too. This post takes a wander through my Waveshare Zero and similar format boards that each support one of the RP2040, ESP32-C3 or ESP32-S3. Warning! I strongly recommend using old or second hand equipment for your experiments.  … Continue reading Arduino with Multiple Displays – Part 2 →

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 Touchscreen MIDI Controller – Part 2

Here is another format for my newly found cheap touchscreen MIDI controller.  This time, presenting twelve virtual "slider pots" for use as MIDI controllers. https://youtu.be/FHu0BoCBEAw 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 … Continue reading Arduino Touchscreen MIDI Controller – Part 2 →

TFT MIDI Display – Part 3

This display is inspired by the sound and light show at the end of Close Encounters of the Third Kind.  It uses the TFT MIDI Display once again. https://youtu.be/hEpZ7Zy03Vo 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 … Continue reading TFT MIDI Display – Part 3 →

TFT MIDI Display – Part 2

Building on my previous project adding a colour display to an Arduino, I thought I'd use the graphics a little by adding one of those "show the note on the stave" displays you quite often get on modern keyboards. In Part 3 I preset an alternative visualisation. https://youtu.be/p_eLd95G4zc Warning! I strongly recommend using an old or … Continue reading TFT MIDI Display – Part 2 →
