Re: BCR as a simple midi volume controller

2008-01-12 by bjonnh

Find a friend that know microcontrollers, it's relatively easy to
convert these codes and do a little converting box.

And if you have some time to discover a wonderful world of
possibilites you can teach yourself microcontrollers with boards like
arduino. With the basic board you will likely overcome this
PC-dependant midicontroller problem for your usage with a small PCB.

Feel free to ask for more informations...

Maybe when the firmware will be understood we could made things like
that (try to write ideas like that on the wiki, we will need them to
do a new firmware one day).
