ArduinoBoy!
Finally got an ArduinoBoy built, and to celebrate, heres a video of it in action:
From the youtube vid description:
LSDJ is running in “master” mode, and is sending clock data out which the Arduino then sends over usb. This is then picked up by a little processing app which I wrote which acts as an interface between midi and usb using the RWMidi lib (which I had to hack a little).
The song is just something I wrote quickly. Three channels running in LSDJ (PU2, wav, and noise), then some drums and QuadraSID from Ableton Live.
Sorry the sound quality sucks
So there we have it! Maybe I’ll put something up showing how I made this if anyone is interested – the nicest thing about it is that it required no soldering whatsoever! The only piece of equipment I used to make this was a pair of small scissors to cut the link cable and strip the wires. Not that I’d recommend using scissors to strip wire, but I was impatient and it worked
Anyway, feel free to leave any comments or questions, and cheers to Trash80 for all the help!
hey combatdave, you answered my thread at 8bc, thanks!
this video and the arduinoboy you built are great! I still can’t figure out how you did to build it with no soldering! But I wish you could send me the schematics for it… could you please?? my personal email is andrepagnossim@gmail.com
I apreciate any help !
and by the way, I added you on myspace ok?
thanks a lot for your time man!
could you make a list of parts that you would need to replicate what you did? maybe sell me a kit lol. no not really but a list would be great.
@andre (pulselooper)
andre, the schematics are in another post i put up recently!
@rey
rey, there are no parts needed to build this aside from a gameboy link cable and an arduino. this is a modified version of an arduinoboy, for the full info just google “arduinoboy” – i’ll probably be putting information of how i build my full arduinoboy up soon.
I made an arduinoboy too but it doesn t work as midi master, did you make something not in the plan? do you know if it s possible to sends notes from lsdj? (not only clock )
