I am creating this new thread because I no longer consider this a DIY project due to the complicated nature of the build, and many of the original specs have changed. I have spent the last seven months and more $$$ than I have kept track of designing and iterating the advancement of a reliable PCB and hardware solution to support a MIDI based foot controller technologically above and beyond anything else currently available. If I only make one for myself...it will still be well worth it. However the greater good is always in my sights and if this technology can benefit others and if there is enough interest I can build out a batch of these systems. Firmware is currently in rapid development,
Hardware Specs:
32 bit micro-controller running at 120Mhz
Dedicated second micro-controller to handle the button events
SD Card slot for firmware updates and data storage
21 Foot switches
21 Color TFT displays
7" Touch screen display
On board SPI Flash 80Mb x 2; one of which is accessible over USB
USB port
Midi In/Thru/Midi Out
4 expression pedal inputs
WiFi enabled
There are poor images which do not do justice. More to come!
