| <nowiki>##</nowiki> Setup
| |
| | |
| 1. Install MIDIUSB library <nowiki>https://docs.arduino.cc/libraries/midiusb/</nowiki>
| |
| | |
| 2. Add the MIDIUSB.h Library: Go to Tools < Manage Libraries...
| |
| | |
| 3. Search for "MIDIUSB" by Gary Grewal
| |
| | |
| 4. Install the latest version
| |
| | |
| 5. Select your board: Tools > Board > Arduino Leonardo (or Pro Micro)

| <nowiki>##</nowiki> 🎛️🎚️ Potentiometers / Sliders
| |
| | |
| <nowiki>###</nowiki> What you need:
| |
| | |
| - 1 potentiometer or slider
| |
| | |
| - 3 wires
| |
| | |
| <nowiki>###</nowiki> How to connect:
| |
| | |
| ```
| |
| | |
| Potentiometer:
| |
| | |
| ├─ Left pin / GND → GND
| |
| | |
| ├─ Middle pin / Signal → A0 (or A1, A2, A3...)
| |
| | |
| └─ Right pin / VCC / Power → 5V
| |
| | |
| ```
| |
| | |
| <nowiki>###</nowiki> Code
| |
| | |
| ```cpp
| |
| | |
| <nowiki>#</nowiki>include <MIDIUSB.h>
| |
| | |
| int lastValue = 0;
| |
| | |
| void setup() {
| |
| | |
| pinMode(A0, INPUT); // ← Change A0 to your pin
| |
| | |
| }
| |
| | |
| void loop() {
| |
| | |
| int value = analogRead(A0) / 8; // ← Change A0 to match setup
| |
| | |
| if (value != lastValue) {
| |
| | |
| midiEventPacket_t event = {0x0B, 0xB0, 1, value};
| |
| | |
| // ↑ ← CC number
| |
| | |
| MidiUSB.sendMIDI(event);
| |
| | |
| MidiUSB.flush();
| |
| | |
| lastValue = value;
| |
| | |
| }
| |
| | |
| delay(10);
| |
| | |
| }
| |
| | |
| ```
| |
| | |
| <nowiki>**</nowiki>To customize:**
| |
| | |
| - Change A0 to A1, A2, A3 etc. for different pins
| |
| | |
| - Change the CC number 1 a different one for every input
| |
| | |

| |
| | |
| <nowiki>###</nowiki> How to connect

| |
| | |
| int lastState = HIGH;
| |
| | |

| |
| | |
| }
| |
| | |
| void loop() {
| |
| | |
| int state = digitalRead(2); // ← Change 2 to match setup
| |
| | |

| |
| | |
| // Button pressed
| |
| | |
| midiEventPacket_t noteOn = {0x09, 0x90, 60, 127};
| |
| | |
| // ↑ ↑
| |
| | |
| // note velocity
| |
| | |
| MidiUSB.sendMIDI(noteOn);
| |
| | |
| } else {
| |
| | |
| // Button released
| |
| | |
| midiEventPacket_t noteOff = {0x08, 0x80, 60, 0};
| |
| | |
| // ↑
| |
| | |
| // note
| |

| lastState = state;
| |
| | |
| }
| |
| | |
| delay(10);
| |
| | |
| }
| |
| | |
| ```
| |
| | |
| <nowiki>**</nowiki>To customize:**
| |
| | |
| - Change pin `2` to `3`, `4`, `5` etc.
| |
| | |
| - Change note number `60`:
| |
| | |
| - `60` = C (middle C)
| |
| | |
| - `62` = D
| |
| | |
| - `64` = E
| |
| | |
| - `65` = F
| |
| | |
| - `67` = G
| |
| | |
| - `69` = A
| |
| | |
| - `71` = B
| |
| | |
| - `72` = C (one octave higher)
| |
| | |
| - Change velocity `100` (0-127, higher = louder)

| <nowiki>##</nowiki> 📏🪢 Pull sensor / distance sensor
| |
| | |
| <nowiki>###</nowiki> What you need:
| |
| | |
| - Any sensor with analog output
| |
| | |
| - Wires as needed for your sensor
| |
| | |
| <nowiki>###</nowiki> How to connect:
| |
| | |
| ```
| |
| | |
| Sensor:
| |
| | |
| ├─ VCC/Power → 5V
| |
| | |
| ├─ GND → GND
| |
| | |
| └─ Signal → A0 (or A1, A2, A3...)
| |
| | |
| ```
| |
| | |
| <nowiki>###</nowiki> Code to copy:
| |
| | |
| ```cpp
| |
| | |
| <nowiki>#</nowiki>include <MIDIUSB.h>
| |
| | |
| int lastValue = 0;
| |
| | |
| void setup() {
| |
| | |
| pinMode(A0, INPUT); // ← Change A0 to your pin
| |
| | |
| }
| |
| | |
| void loop() {
| |
| | |
| int sensorValue = analogRead(A0); // ← Change A0 to match setup
| |
| | |
| int midiValue = map(sensorValue, 0, 1023, 0, 127);
| |
| | |
| // ↑ ↑
| |
| | |
| // adjust these if needed
| |
| | |
| if (abs(midiValue - lastValue) > 1) { // Ignore tiny changes
| |
| | |
| midiEventPacket_t event = {0x0B, 0xB0, 74, midiValue};
| |
| | |
| // ↑ ← CC number
| |
| | |
| MidiUSB.sendMIDI(event);
| |
| | |
| MidiUSB.flush();
| |
| | |
| lastValue = midiValue;
| |
| | |
| }
| |
| | |
| delay(10);
| |
| | |
| }
| |
| | |
| ```
| |
| | |
| <nowiki>###</nowiki> To customize:
| |
| | |
| - Change `A0` to your sensor pin
| |
| | |
| - Change `0, 1023` in the `map()` function if your sensor gives different values
| |
| | |
| - Change CC number `74` to control different parameters
| |
| | |
| <nowiki>###</nowiki> ☎️ CC on/off / Momentary
| |
| | |
| <nowiki>##</nowiki> 📝 Common Pin Reference
| |
| | |
| <nowiki>###</nowiki> Analog Pins (for sensors & potentiometers):
| |
| | |
| `A0`, `A1`, `A2`, `A3`, `A4`, `A5`
| |
| | |
| <nowiki>###</nowiki> Digital Pins (for buttons):
| |
| | |
| `2`, `3`, `4`, `5`, `6`, `7`, `8`, `9`, `10`, `11`, `12`, `13`
| |
| | |
| <nowiki>###</nowiki> Don't use:
| |
| | |
| - Pin `0` and `1` (used for USB communication)
| |
| | |
| <nowiki>##</nowiki> Sending notes
| |
| | |
| ```cpp
| |
| | |
| C4 = 60 (Middle C)
| |
| | |
| C#4 = 61
| |
| | |
| D4 = 62
| |
| | |
| D#4 = 63
| |
| | |
| E4 = 64
| |
| | |
| F4 = 65
| |
| | |
| F#4 = 66
| |
| | |
| G4 = 67
| |
| | |
| G#4 = 68
| |
| | |
| A4 = 69
| |
| | |
| A#4 = 70
| |
| | |
| B4 = 71
| |
| | |
| C5 = 72
| |
| | |
| ```
| |
| | |
| Each octave adds or subtracts 12:
| |
| | |
| - C3 = 48 (one octave lower)
| |
| | |
| - C5 = 72 (one octave higher)
| |
| | |
| <nowiki>##</nowiki> CC
| |
| | |
| You can use any CC from 0-119, but these are the most common!
