Here are a few variants of acrylic MidiGAL cases, the clear green glass ones are usually in stock and are sold for $30 with all the required hardware: 4 x 10 and 22mm stand offs, 8 x top and bottom panel screws (hex head), 4 x side screws with nuts, switch knob, encoder knob and plastic bottom sticker pads.
MidiSeq firmware has been updated to v0.97: MidiSeq_097. This update adds Program Change handling options: now the sequences can be changed externally using Program Change events. Also added ability to disable sequence transposition.
Long overdue MidiSeq MIDI step sequencer demo video is now available:
MidiSeq is a polyphonic MIDI step sequencer with some great features, such as note step advance, step modifiers (tie, half, strum, and accent), super stable internal clock, nice swing and two modulation sources with velocity, after touch and CC destinations. More details here.
MidiArp is an advanced MIDI arpeggiator with a few twists, check the details here.
MidiGAL is a simple Atmega328p based MIDI controller board featuring 8×2 LCD, MIDI IN/OUT connectors with LEDs, one encoder and one switch. It can run a bunch of different firmware variants (updatable via Sysex), including original unmodified MIDIpal firmware.
One cool firmware available for MidiGAL is MidiClk — high precision Midi Clock Tester/Generator that is capable of straightening up your DAW or iOS MIDI Clock. See more details here.
Midi2CV Mk2 is a DIY embeddable MIDI to CV/Gate converter with reasonable defaults and extensive configuration options, see more details here.
5U DDS AHDSR Enveloper Generator PCBs finally arrived:
Here’s a new AHDSR/AHD envelope generator for 5U systems. Besides standard stuff it has some niceties like internal GATE adjustment, Decay/Release time and envelope amplitude modulation, selectable curve shapes (expo, linear, log), loop mode (both contiguous and gated) and more.
More details here. Demo video.
I’ve spent recent months away from MIDI due to an acute case of modularitis building a bunch of 5U modules for my modular. These include Jürgen Haible Living VCO, Roland JP-8 VCF clone, Oakley Transistor Ladder VCF and a few other modules. Jürgen Haible Living VCO build details are here, and I’ll be documenting those other builds in upcoming posts,
