So, i wanna clone a 'le strum'
Build Log
OK, going to try and hook it up as well as possible and figure out software later i guess.
relevant atmega32u4 pins ;

I bricked it, time for a rebuild/upgrade \o/
Got a atmega32u4 board, cut out the old arduino.

Woot, electronics done (i think!) time to verify and start on firmware :)

Finally got round to printing the last pieces \o/ Time to start on connecting everything together :D

Worked on the buttonmount for the last couple days, kinda getting towards ready with it :)
Plan
Current 'plan' , port logic of lestrum to arduino , implement a capacitive touch sensor for strumming, implement something with 74hc595 to scan all the switches, combine with axoloti inside instrument? Maybe some knobs and leds and display(s) on the axoloti? hmm
I got buttons from KingOfDos, the nice keys also used on Wearable Computer 's current keyboard
Still need to decide on the form factor ... guitarshape seems logical, but maybe something else?
Got parts
- PIC16F1825 ( Might not be using these ... )
- Midi connector(s)
- 74HC595
- 2x Adafruit MPR121 capacitive touch breakouts (ordered 2016-03-11)
- Axoloti (unplanned extra)
