I made a midi arduino footswitch using this design; made it all in one night. Was having trouble figuring out how to have my computer read the MIDI messages, but I figured it out. The video I was watching to figure out the programming for my arduino was by Nick Leonard who adopted your code. After seeing this video it all came full circle. Thank you so much for your work; it's so useful and informative.

It's taken me eight years to find this video.. The series is very easy to understand and the code solves a number of problems I was having with Arduino MIDI. I have been using an Allen Heath ZEDR-16 that has excellent MIDI capability - or did until the Firewire board died and A&H have no stock. I need to build a 16 fader channel with 32 buttons. I reckon I can add a routine to flash an LED on detecting MIDI activity, but extending the buttons to 24 by adding another mux is probably beyond me. Maybe I can build two of these with 16 buttons, set them to different MIDI channels and have the DAW buttons respond to the different incoming channels.

no problem!a few quick questions tho, I'm planning to use 74HC4067 to make a 20 button midi controller (16 buttons for the midi notes on the mux and 4 buttonson the uno to choose banks) based on the midi fighter 3d: 1) will the 74HC4067 cause any latency issues when playing since the signal has to travel thru basically two chips? and; 2) do I have to change the code for the 4 buttons to be dedicated to changing banks like the midi fighter 3d or is that something i have to configure on the DAW itself instead, namely ableton? 3)is it still possible to use a usb b instead of a midi port and program that as a usb-midi port? or alternatively, flash the arduino uno to be recognized as a midi device? thank you so much in advance!
@MrRockism6 жыл бұрын
I'm not a professional by any stretch but I guess I can answer your questions somewhat. 1) I believe multiplexers are sufficiently fast as to not introduce any noticeable latency. Maybe latency could come from how the Arduino code handles the multiplexers, but to be honest 20 inputs doesn't seem like a lot of inputs regardless. 2) You need to change the code so your buttons send CC 0 or CC 32, which are the Bank Select MSB and LSB messages respectively. You might want to look into how MIDI deals with both the Bank Select and Program Change messages, because they work in a slightly different manner: you have to supply some parameter value so they actually do anything. 3) Technically yes, but you need to hack the Uno. The Uno has two microcontrollers, the 16u2 and the AT328. The 16u2 can be hacked to load a firmware which enables HID support, therefore making it possible for the Uno to be recognized as something like a keyboard, mouse or MIDI controller. To hack the 16u2 you'd need either another Uno or a way to access your Uno's ICSP port. Anyways, I think it would be easier if you used something with built-in HID support, such as the Micro or Micro Pro (they both have the 32u4 microcontroller). Again, I'm no expert so whoever reads this, please correct me if I've dun goofed.

the mkp mini keybed im hacking right now has 25 keys with 2 contacts each. the 2nd contact is to provide velocity sensitivity: the microcontroller will measure the difference in time between contact closures and calculate the input velocity using some curve. every contact has a (row, column) coordinate on the 8x8 grid connected via a diode to avoid "ghosting" and "masking". im going to use an output multiplexer and connect each Y pin to a column, and connect a second multiplexer as an input from the rows. i will scan through the column outputs writing HIGH, and for each column, read every row. the keyboard buttons which are pressed should pass the HIGH voltage from the output mux to the input mux and show the button is pressed. or maybe ill write LOW first to see if that works without melting anything lol. after i map out which keys go to which pair of grid coordinates ill see if my esp32/multiplexers are fast enough to handle the velocity detection.

Great tutorial but imo lacks following information at one point: While the Multiplexer might not be able to hybrid between digital and analog inputs, it is possible to convert analogue inputs into digital ones within the code. This can be done similarily to how you convert analogue Values to Midi-Values for your Potentiometers. It can be achieved simply by loading the value of your analogue input into a Variable that is modulates another Variable either by dividing the Values by 512 or by defining a treshold and divide by that. Version one can be used when you never pick up values bigger than 511 unless you give voltage (remember: cables this small are very vulnerable to interference). Version two gets intresting if we have random spikes of interference going on. Look for the Highest Peak over an extended period of time and set your treshold higher than that. Now, only if you trigger the button, the treshold will be passed and the "Variable = input/Treshold"will be bigger than 1.

I am curious if you or any of the folks on here have used feedback from Logic Pro to light LEDs, or to text to a display on the controller. My desire is to have the controller reflect any changes through the keyboard back to the controller. For instance if a button with a corresponding LED is used to mute a channel, a keyboard entry to mute the same channel would light the LED. Also, I'm putting together a controller pushing MIDI through USB, and I'd like to have Logic reflect a custom name for the controller.

Thanks for this well-explained video tutorial! I don't know enough about C to figure out whether your controller library can be modified to allow "coarse" (7-bit) NPRN parameters to be assigned to pots / buttons on this shield project. However, it seems if an NRPN flag is added to the "command" variable, and if the "note number" / "byte command" variables can hold a 14-bit value for the number of the NRPN parameter to change, then a routine could be added to issue the 9 bytes that make up the NPRN parameter change command (CC / #99 / MSB of NPRN parameter / CC/ #98 / LSB of NPRN parameter / CC/ #6 / 7-bit parameter value to send). Is this possible?

Hi notes and volts, is there a reason why pin 0 and pin 6 can't be used to connect multiplexers in your code. I like to connect 6 4067 to the Uno. When connecting pots directly to the analog pins, pin0 and pin6 are available. Any way to change the code so that pin 0 and 6 are also mux capable?
@dubsnip16367 жыл бұрын
Never mind above (typo pin 6 should have been pin 5). Also I already used A0-A03 analog input pins for my test one month ago :) I got confused by the naming of the address pins //A0 = PIN2, A1 = PIN3, A2 = PIN4, A3 = PIN5. They off course do not relate to the analog input pins . ADDR0-ADDR3 would have been clearer to not get mixed up with the A0-A5 used for declaring the analog input pins. For the OUTPUT PIN variable, INPUT PIN would have been a more suitable name for that variable as it's used as input scanning and not as output in this application. Minor details though, I'm very happy with your code!! Anyways I found out that for my project the Uno is near it's limit. I'm going to use 81 analog pots and 15 buttons for my final project. When I tried to declare the full 96 analog ins which the 6 analog multiplexers and 16 digital ins on 1 digital multiplexer the dynamic memory exceeded 100% (108%) and therefor I was not able to upload the code to the Arduino. With 81 pots and 15 inputs declared, the code uses 96%. Just enough to fully midify my peavey twelve hundred series vintage mixer. So anyone wondering what the maximum inputs is for the code to handle: around 96 digital and analog combined.
@dubsnip16367 жыл бұрын
I changed the pot and button variables by taking out the midi channel parameter. In stead I set the channel fixed now. It freed up some dynamic memory and now I am able to connect 112 inputs at 98% dynamic memory consumption.

Can you use endless encoders connected via a multiplexer? The arduino needs to be able to send values to the encoder, not only receive values. An example of what I mean are the encoders on BCR1000. The advantage is that as you e.g. change the value of a pan knob inside the DAW, the endless encoder is kept up-to-date, and if it has surrounding LEDs then it will visually indicate what the pan value is.

Great videos, explained at just the right pace, without overwhelming the viewer with technical jargon. Windodge asked if this project would render a keyboard monophonic. Your answer was that the midi instrument itself would determine that. But since a multiplexer only outputs one value at a time, doesn't this mean that you're sending midi messages one a time? The way I understand this, is that the midi messages are sent fast enough to give the impression of polyphony. Please correct me if I'm wrong. :)
@NotesAndVolts7 жыл бұрын
Hi Isabelle. Glad you like the videos. Your understanding is correct. If you play a C major chord - even if you manage to hit all the keys at the exact same millisecond (almost impossible for a human), Midi will send out three Note On messages one after another (C E G) in rapid succession . When you release the keys, it will send three Note Off commands to stop the notes.

Is this the usual cost of the 74HC4067 or has the DIP packaging of the IC been replaced by a newer model?

Thanks man. Very nice series. It would also be nice if you could do some in depth code explanation of MIDI.h and your own MIDI_Controller_v1-2. But anyway: Great stuff!

Nice video, but how are the multiplexers' inputs controlled so that the programm knows which input is activated???

How do we add multiple output oscillator waveform and use either a button or pot to say how many waveforms to be added
