I turned an Arduino Protoshield into a digital-to-analog converter with only a few extra parts. It’s proved a lot of fun for audio experimentation and a great way to learn about what DACs do and how they do it. What’s DAC? Digital to analog converters, or DACs, are used to create varying voltage levels from […]
Ever wondered how the Arduino would fair as a keyboard synthesizer? Wonder no more – the Pocket Piano kit from Critter and Guitari proves Arduino can sine and saw quite well. Features include – 25 keys and multiplexer circuitry 4 potentiometers, 1 controls output level Microchip MCP4921 12 bit SPI DAC Passive low pass output […]
Coming soon to the Maker store – The Pocket Piano Arduino Shield, from Critter and Guitari – This is a board for making the Arduino into a portable stand alone music synthesizer. It plugs directly into the Arduino board and provides 25 multiplexed keys (2 full octaves), 4 pots, status LED, reset switch, digital to […]
