How to Connect a Potentiometer to the Daisy (DaisyDuino)

Let's learn how to connect a potentiometer to the Daisy Seed and change the pitch of an oscillator in real time with it! We'll also connect another potentiometer for volume control. For this tutorial, we'll be using the Arduino IDE and the DaisyDuino library.

Really nice to see you're posting more tutorials!

[@electrosmithco]

Glad to hear that!! We're going to start focusing more time for videos :)

[@sound.workshop]

awesome tutorial!

[@electrosmithco]

Thank you so much!!

[@Daruma_Studio]

Heyyy! This is what Ive been waiting for! Well at least 1/2 of it! Thank you for this! Looking forward to the other have to make this potentiometer do something in MAX/MSP using JSON. I cannot get that JSON to work... Thank you for posting this!

[@electrosmithco]

We wrote a guide for custom JSON over on our forum titled "Quick Guide on Setting Up a Custom JSON File for pd2dsy & Oopsy!". We highly recommend checking it out. And we would be happy to answer any question that you have there.

[@berzerker17487]

These tutorials are phenomenal! Great work and thanks for making them!

[@electrosmithco]

We're happy to hear that, thanks!!

[@draconianrhythms]

Excellent as always. Bring on part 2 ;)

[@electrosmithco]

Currently writing the script for the button tutorial :D

[@draconianrhythms]

Awesome man ❤ would you consider maybe one day covering what other components you’d need to add to this setup? I’m talking about op-amps here really; I think I know how to hook them up but seeing an expert do it would be great. I know ES offer boards with all this stuff already, but I’m coming at this from a very low-budget point of view haha. Just a thought .. cheers 🙏

[@electrosmithco]

@@draconianrhythms Op-amp tutorial for amplifying instrument level (like guitar) to a line level, correct? Yes! I have been meaning to make a tutorial like that for a while.

[@draconianrhythms]

@@electrosmithcothank you .. that’s great news

[@flywittzbeats4008]

Our hero has returned to bring us synth goodies! haha. Best tutorials on the internet

[@electrosmithco]

You're far too kind, thank you :D

[@MikeHudsontek]

Yes! you're back. This is what we want :-) thanks

[@electrosmithco]

Wooo! And we juuuust uploaded a new tutorial!

[@chillywilson]

yes, custom hardware tutorials. I'm stumbling on plug data json file/heavy stuff, I'd just wish there was a table of plugs and their corsponding hardware you can pin them to.

[@electrosmithco]

If you want to learn how to put together a JSON for custom hardware configuration, we wrote a guide titled "Quick Guide on Setting Up a Custom JSON File for pd2dsy & Oopsy!". We highly recommend checking it out. And we would be happy to answer any question that you have there.

[@chillywilson]

​@@electrosmithco I was looking for somthing like that, the forum search might need more tags in them, I came up blank seaching "plugdata harware mapping". Thank you I was able to find it now. Would you know if there is a list of matching hardware to plugs? Like if I want to put various sensors or like 5110 displays, what plug would work or not at all?

[@gcb713]

Awsome, thanks!

[@electrosmithco]

Thank you for watching!

[@freeelectron8261]

Nice work, looking forward to more cool tuts! Electrosmith rocks! Or maybe it beeps and squarks?

[@electrosmithco]

You're in luck because we just now posted another new tutorial!! Bloops is acceptable too ;)

[@greglmna7578]

Hey, great video. I am learning more about pure data and I wonder how I can assign physical knobs to variables in the pd patch. Do you have resources in this topic ? Thanks 😉

[@electrosmithco]

Thank you! A thread called "Quick Guide on Setting Up a Custom JSON File for pd2dsy & Oopsy!" on the Daisy forum would be a great place to start!

[@andreas-wismann]

Great tutorials, thank you! May I ask if it‘s necessary to have the analogReadResolution(16) instruction placed in a loop, or would it suffice to have it called once?

[@electrosmithco]

Good catch! You can place it in void setup(). That was my bad in placing it in void loop()!

[@NaokiApri]

What if i need more knobs than adcs available?

[@electrosmithco]

Multiplexer will be your friend :) We have a tutorial post on our forum, so I highly recommend checking it out. If you search the word "mux" or "multiplexer" that post should appear.

[@daytrace4635]

can you do an encoder, Im finding this nigh impossible lol?

[@electrosmithco]

A video on encoder is planned for sure!
