The Paspberry Pi Pico is what you may possibly simply call the board of the second, many thanks to its mixture of affordability, functions, and ongoing availability all through the ingredient scarcity. We have seen a great deal of wonderful projects utilizing it, and the newest to float earlier is [todbot]’s PicoStepSeq, an exceptionally compact MIDI sequencer.
All the elements are mounted on a PCB, with the sequencer’s eight measures chosen by a row of buttons with built-in LEDs. The interface is by means of an SSD1306 OLED, and there is also a rotary encoder. Software will come courtesy of CircuitPython, and the output is shipped via a 3.5 mm TRS jack. Finally the total is wrapped in a 3D printed enclosure.
The end result is a sequencer that could practically be a item in its possess proper, and we feel everyone whose interests lie in digital audio should locate clear-cut ample to make. All the data files and info expected to establish your own can be observed in the connected repository, and he’s placed a Tweet with a video clip online which we’ve embedded down below the crack.
I did it! In 2 weeks I built, coded, PCB fabbed, & CAD’d an enclosure for a product concept: a very small Pico-dependent MIDI stage sequencer “PicoStepSeq”. Thx to @johnedgarpark for inspiration & @adafruit for prototyping instruments https://t.co/WpGZIhJpHv pic.twitter.com/kek4U2Y4mq
