DIY Midi....ish?
DIY Midi....ish? Posted on: 09.11.2011 by Chassidy Popwell Well at the moment I use my iPhone on touchOSC using 2 big faders for the volume faders and a smaller fader for the monitor volume (headphones). I then have two toggle buttons for cue channel (headphones) decks A & B. What I want to do, is make a physical version Of this, as a touchscreen is quite tricky to use. So what I want to know is, how would I go about it? Any idea of the circuitry? What componants will be needed? Ive done an advanced engineering course as part of my engineering apprentiship so I don't mind the electronic work. It's just the electronic deign I'm not good at. I want to use Midi CC's preferably. So if anyone knows, please given us a shout'!!!! | |

| Dannielle Glassey 10.11.2011 | An Arduino would be the easiest to use (though I'm a PIC fan). They have a special midi library and all the connections are well documented. You can use some serial to midi converter software. |
