MidiBox KB Interface and More !

[OnOffArt]

Hi and Salut to all the world,

I'm sure what I will say, has already been addressed in the forum,

but hey, I try anyway !

I'm a Electro-musician and i have a lot of Rack synths and

i want to turns it into a custom Keyboard version.

I would like to realize a kind of "universal interface" based to the MIDIbox including:

1 In for Fatar Keyboard series (the keyboard only no Electronics)

An a octave selector with LEDs

1 In for Aftertouch

1 In for Pitch/Mod Wheel set

1 In for Ribbon controler (assignable)

2 In for Pedals (Switch and expression)

(somewhat similar to the MIDIbox KB project)

For controls

128 Analog Input for Pots/faders (convert to CC's Sysex, etc..)

128 Digital Input for Encoders (convert to CC's Sysex, etc..)

128 Digital Input for Switchs (convert to CC's Sysex, etc..)

128 LED Ouput

For communication

1 In/Out Internal MIDI port (discrete for the sound module)

1 Port In/Out/Thru External MIDI Port (Daw)

A selector to choose to Sending Key/PitchMod/Aftertouch/Ribbon/pedals

to the external or Internal MIDI port (Key Local On/Off)

A same selector for Controls(Local Control On/Off)

I need a helping and suggestions and advice for realize this !

Hi Djé,

you will need two MBHP_CORE_LPC17 modules to realize this.

One core which is using the MBKB firmware, another one which is running the MIDI controller firmware.

For the MIDI controller you could start with a modified MIDIO128 - there is a hidden extension which allows to use rotary encoders instead of buttons.

But using buttons in addition will be tricky, because it would require a second SRIO chain.

Do you have programming experience?

Best Regards, Thorsten.

Hi Thorsten,

Tx for your Reply,

Your KB version works well?

for programing it depends on the requested level,

but in general I understand pretty quickly(pas toujours, mais on va dire qui oui :rolleyes: )

I also need the merger for these functions:

-Key/pitch-Mod / Ribbon Local On/Off

Control-Local On/Off

Thank you for the interest.

Peace

Hi Hello hallo Bonjour,

Here is the corrected synoptic project,

1-Keyboard Port (With AfterTouch)

1-Pitch/Mod Wheel Port

1-Ribbon Controler Port

1-Octave Selector

1-KeySet Local On/Off Selector

1-Internal MIDI IN/OUT port For Sound Module

For Controls (Pots,RE,Faders Etc) i think use Omni boards by LIVID

I/O board

1-Contols Local ON/OFF

1-Global MIDI Chanel selector

1-External MIDI IN/OUT/THRU port

1-USB Port for Core Programming

I will try to integrate everything on a single PCB + an I / O board

Anything is possible ?

A bientot

Your ideas somehow don't match with the existing projects, therefore you probably have to program most of the functions by yourself - or you have to adjust your plans.

Did you already read the tutorial? http://www.ucapps.de/mios32_c.html

And the source code of the projects, such as:
