Engineers create something out of nothing, and no where is this more apparent than in the creation of customized computer hardware. To make a simple MIDI controller, you need knowledge of firmware ...

Using an Arduino Development board and Max/MSP, a handy four-button MIDI controller has been created that is capable of counting from 1 to 15 using only four buttons. This innovative device, named ...

Brendan Vavra has designed and built a fantastic and very unique Arduino MIDI Accordion which is capable of creating midi music as you play. Even though there are many MIDI Accordions available ...

There’s a million and one ways to play around with MIDI and an Arduino. It’s trivial to have a ‘duino spit out a scale to a MIDI keyboard, or even respond to SysEx messages to change a lighting or ...

Making music can be an expensive hobby, particularly if you don’t set limits on the equipment you’re willing to shell out for. That’s the fate musician Alex Coover, aka Glacial Geyser, came close to ...

DIY musical instruments are their own thing entirely, but if you're looking for a place to start, Adafruit has a guide to building your own MIDI controller using an Arduino. The OONTZ uses a 3D ...

This Arduino based MIDI volume pedal is capable of reading the position of an analog pedal, translating the A/D value into the proper numerical range, and sending MIDI signals to a synthesizer. A ...

Is it a keyboard? Is it a guitar? It's the ARKeytar, an Arduino-based MIDI controller shaped as a maple wood keytar. Thanks to the Arduino team for highlighting this one, the work of Andrea Gregorini ...

Just another gizmo I've whipped up in my office of insanity. I expect most of you won't have any idea why you'd want to build one of these, so I'll try to explain up front. Suffice it to say, "I find ...

Yes it's real! I'm reading the analog-ins from an Arduino which is connected to the trees and acting as a potential divider. That data is transferred to MIDI notes via a MIDI shield and the Arduino ...
