  • Since I can't add my info to the form, here's what I plan to add commented below
    What is the problem:
    Existing MIDI controllers are often require many buttons to produce sound of variable tune* and intonation* and while many are portable, only a few can be used hand-held which makes it not accessible when musicians/foley artist are moving around to help with their thought process.
    What is your solution:
    I plan to create a dual hand-held midi controller that will produce tones in heptatonic scale on the left and change it's note/chord on the right with the option to control your audio software settings. The user can also increase/decrease it's volume thru tilting the device

    How will it work
    The Raspberry Pi Pico will serve as the midi player that will provide the tune  while arduino nano will be the keyboard controller of the device. The nrf52840 dk will provide the BLE link between the PC and midi device.

  • Hi, cant modify my entry form even if it says that there's still an hour and 22 mins to do so. May I ask assistance for this?
