This last batch of 10 might be the last one! last chance to grab one

What is it?

This is a very small (the size of a common credit card) MIDI controller, capable of controlling level, pan, modulation wheel and arbitrary control change in all MIDI channels via MIDI TRS minijack or 5-pin DIN-5 connector. It is powered by USB B and includes an easily accessible ICSP port, so updating a new firmware or hacking your own custom firmware is an easy task as long as you have a $3 Arduino board or any ISP capable board.

Why did you make it?

My main goal was to have a simple solution to easily control multiple parameters in an Empress' ZOIA patch via control change, but I also added other parameters and functionality to be suited for using along with any MIDI capable piece of gear or computer.

What makes it special?

There are not many general purpose MIDI controllers that output raw MIDI via TRS jack/DIN-5, modern gear has favored MIDI-USB, and with a couple exceptions, the controllers including old-fashioned MIDI OUT port are either way too big or way too expensive or way too old, thus, this one is both small and affordable.

What you get

• A Ready to use, PCB, with everything soldered and 4 white leg/spacers. (for the fully assembled option)
• The latest stable firmware installed. Future firmwares can be easily installed using an Arduino board and some cables. The process is further explained in the Github page of the project, down below.
• If you choose TRS minijack, its configuration is the (now) standardized Type-A. If you aren't sure if your devices are Type A, you can check this site.
