SMALLEST MIDI Controller I’ve Ever Made | Teensy & Arduino
This may not be the smallest MIDI Controller in the world, but it's pretty close! Today, we're building a mini MIDI controller using Teensy and Arduino while discussing a common struggle among musicians—the fear of missing out on the latest gear. All the parts are listed below. Regarding the FOMO part, I came across the EP-133 K.O. II, and I really wanted that thing BAD! After a few days, I decided to get a new Teensy instead. No shade on anyone who picked up the K.O. II; that thing looks amazing! But what truly excites me is creating things. Thanks for joining me on this journey!
Reminder: Please avoid touching the wires together. That part was purely for demonstration purposes. I don’t want anyone accidentally frying their board or worse.
Building Steps:
1. Download & install Teensyduino from PJRC’s website. (Use Arduino IDE for Arduino boards)
2. Download & install Teensy Loader that should be running while uploading sketches. (Teensy only)
3. Download & install the Control Surfaces & MIDI USB Libraries from GitHub.
4. Add the Libraries in Teensyduino/Arduino under Sketch - Include Library - Add ZIP Library.
5. Download the sketch for this project on GitHub.
6. Select your Board (mine is Teensy 4.0) and USB Type (MIDI) under the Tools menu.
7. Upload the sketch to your device.
