Netley Chapel and the surrounding Royal Victoria Park in Southampton provided an inspiring setting to relax, listen to great music, and of course dance! My gratitude goes out to everyone who helped make the event possible – and to everyone …
I’ve programmed a sequencer for the Arduino microcontroller platform, designed to be used with the Sparkfun MIDI Shield. The sequencer combines an arpeggiating sequencer like that found on the Access Virus with a transposable recording sequencer, similar to the one on the Roland SH-101. get it here. I make fairly extensive use of MIDI in …
This sketch requires 47effects’ Arduino MIDI library here. I’ve tested it with version 4.1. More stuff to come, the code is here for now. This project was made and tested with the Sparkfun MIDI Shield, but should be straightforward to adapt to other MIDI board designs. Made with Arduino 1.0.5.
Here’s a brief update on a standalone MIDI sequencer I’m working on – the 4×16 grid of tri-color buttons is finished, and allows for 12-bit color fading. It looks very pretty to see in action, and I can’t think of any button controller out there at the moment that can do this. If the above …
