The first nanoDRUMs were shipped!

In the past days I have updated the firmware code, introducing support for nanoDrum, I published the latest version of the firmware picoMIDI for MIDI-USB, and the schemes of nanoDrum. picoMIDI is also compatible with the microDrum so if you want to use in order to create your MIDI-USB adapter with a ATTiny4313 , you can do it using the code on GitHub. I lost time to make this version of ...

Fundraising (reloaded)

...after the suggestions (thanks Wesley) I redesigned the nanodrum: without Arduino 24 inputs MIDI IN and MIDI OUT simple direct connection with LCD, 2 buttons and Wav Trigger expansion connectors shift register for the LCD (3 free digital inputs) USB port (for MIDI and firmware upload) and therefore I propose again the idea of collecting funds to print the first PCBs. The use of the shift register is well documented on the internet ...

Hence it will no longer need to connect microDrum to PC to play but just turn it on ... you can also upload your own  favorites samples. All this thanks to  Jamie Robertson's  WAV Trigger  (APPLAUSE!).  Of course it was also ...

To forgive me I want to show the first microDrum that speaks!   I'm very happy. It 's just a prototype but it works well. If all goes well in a little while you will no longer need to connect the ...

A little reminder

I remind you that, even if the version of the firmware and the config tool in the download page are not updated for a while of time, the code updates on GitHub  are frequent. In particular, the latest firmware versions introduce heavy news regarding noise and crosstalk. I'm also developing a Python version of config tool that can run on Windows, Mac and Linux with the same interface. By the ...
