I am new to this forum and this is my first posting. I am not sure what each of the MIDIBOX boards do, and would like your suggestions on what I need to order.
I have a 13 Bass Pedal set which was removed from a Hammond Spinet organ. The only "electronics" that came with the pedals, was the set of leaf spring like switches for each pedal. From what I read MIDIBOX is a modular sytem and I need some type of encoder board, and then a CPU board that processes the data.
So what boards should I order?? I only have dial up internet so viewing most DIY videos is out of the question unless they are very small. I can handle soldering the various parts together, but I don't have any programming tools for PIC etc.
All I'm looking to do is wire the pedals to the MIDIbox and its boards, and end up with a standard 5 PIN DIN MIDI out that I can plug into a sound module.
