Nard Drum Midi Controller - Making Multipad Drum Midi Controller with Arduino Pro Micro




Version 1.0






Version 1.2






What you'll need to make :
  • Diy Multipad Case from 9mm Plywood and Pine wood
  • 10mm Rubber sheet
  • 20mm hard foam sheet
  • Arduino Pro Micro
  • Multiplexer cd74hc4067
  • 11x Piezo
  • 15x Resistor 1M Ohm
  • 15x Diode Zener 5.1v 1N4733A *revision 1.2
  • Must use shielded cable (and twisted pair if you can) *revision 1.2
  • 16x 6 Pin Female 1/4" Inch 6.35mm Stereo Jack Socket (i will give the picture on bottom, use this spesific socket) *revision 1.2


Feature of Nard Drum Midi Controller :
  • 11 Pad
  • 1 Input Hihat Pedal (For now i use Digital - Momentary Button for 3 Midi Note : Close / Open / Pedal)
  • 4 Input to Expand the kit (Kick, Cymbal, etc)
  • 11 Output to Drum Module (Will bypass all signal to Arduino) *revision 1.2
  • Open Source Code. You can change and improve the coding. Github Link
  • You can use the Code for building Full Drum Kit Controller.
  • Flexible, You can changes the Value in the Code :
    • For All Piezzo input :
      • Active : False/True
      • Midi Note (0-127)
      • Min Threshold (0-1024)
      • Max Threshold (0-1024)
      • Min Velocity (0-127)
      • Max Velocity (0-127)
      • Scan Time (0-1024)
      • Masking Time (0-1024)
    • For Hihat Pedal :
      • Midi Note Close (0-127)
      • Midi Note Pedal (0-127)
  • You can use Arduino Pro Micro (Recomended) or Arduino Leonardo
  • You can use this Multipad Drum Midi Controller on PC/Computer or Android Phone with app FluidSynth MIDI (Use channel 10) *revision 1.2
  • *I still using Bahasa Indonesia on Code, Just use google translate. 

Nard Advance Midi Foot Controller - Making Midi Foot Controller with Arduino Pro Micro

 



What you'll need to make :
  • Custom Stainless Steel Enclosure
  • Arduino Pro Micro (Master)
  • 2x Arduino Nano (Slave)
  • 15x EC11 or KY-040 Rotary Encoder
  • 30x Capacitor 0.1µF
  • 1 b10k Potentiometer
  • 3x Resistor 10kΩ
  • 10 Resistor 220Ω
  • 2x Shift register 74hc595
  • 10 3mm/5mm LED
  • 1x AMS1117-3.3V
  • 1x  LCD ILI9488 320x480 (3.5")

Feature of Nard Advance Midi Foot Controller :
  • 3 Mode :
    • Play Mode
      • 10 Bank
      • 1 Bank = 10 Button (Preset/Pedal)
      • Total you can assign 100 Preset/Pedal Button
      • * I will turn off the potentiometer function on the Rotary Encoder in this Play Mode. To reduce accidents of changing parameters when stepping on the Switch Button
    • Edit Mode : You can edit value / parameter your pedal, amp, plugin, etc
      • Limitless Bank (I am not tested how many max bank, 100 maybe?)
      • 1 Bank = 10 Button + 10 Pot Rotary Encoder.
      • That ALOT OF THING you can assign Midi Parameter your pedal, amp, plugin, etc
    • Rename Mode : Change name your preset / pedal / amp that show on your Display
  • 2 Input Expression Pedal
  • Large 3.5 inch Display Screen to see what you are doing
  • Open Source Code. You can change and improve the coding. 
  • *I will update the github link after finishing the coding
