Oh noooo thats terrible news. FastLED is an excellent library - I've spent many horus playing happily with its excellent features. Very sad to hear of this loss :( :( RIP

I can understand that. MIDI is used in live performance where you literally _cannot_ have errors. It's not ok to fix it and carry on.

There's always a risk with standards that if you release a...

FastLED won't accept any kind of data pin value. It looks like there needs to be some kind of pin mapping added for this particular board. I'm using the DemoReel100 example.

I'm keeping it simple...

that explains it ;) I'll move on to FastLED for now

Similiar Problem with PassThroughUSB - setting USB type to Audio doesn't allow the example to compile at this time.

MidiSynthLarge won't compile.

If I select plain old Midi under Tool > USB it hangs on the serial output usage.
If i select any of the other options with Midi and Serial (including Midix versions)...

SimpleDrum example works fine but only while the serial monitor is open!!?? I must admit I had trouble getting it to run - had to try quite a few times and can't work out why...

edit: So resetting...

Zelda working perfectly for me now - thanks for the patches Frank;
"Global variables use 25280 bytes (9%) of dynamic memory, leaving 236864 bytes for local variables. Maximum is 262144 bytes."

Well don’t I feel late to the party :)

Making plans for testing things - nice to see frank is working on the audio library :)

If I was to offer some advice;

Making the sounds is easy.

Sequencing and pattern sequencing to a high resolution is full of challenges.

Can I suggest for Phase 1 - you make the device send...

Wow - it's already done better than I would have hoped to :)

....thank you Byron - it's all MIT license so if you don't mind I'm going to strip out the synth effects and commit them to the audio...

I love it - brilliant project! :) well done

I know I keep replying to my own thread but all this information will be useful in the long run;

Jonathan (author of TS-808 VST) came back to em quickly - he's unfortunately deleted his source...

If the TS-808 detail doesn't come through I'll change direction; Heck I may change direction altogether for a more flexible way forward.

Forget specifically emulating an 808 - I'll use the...

Well I've checked the waybackmachine for the author and I've installed the VST as it implies that there are schematics in it - but there aren't.

I've also emailed the author asking very nicely if...

Your project looks great Tom - thanks for the link too - its fascinating how 808 emulation is going from an electronic approximation of theory - to a modular analogue model - and now into a software...

Not from that project - the author released the compiled VST DLL only unfortunately. His blog is down but I might do some digging and see if I can find him and whether he'd be willing to offer a...

also of note:
This dude has done an excellent looking tutorial series - unfortunately i'll have to sit through a lot of basics to get the bits of info I'm missing but that's life :)

His use of...

And the TS-808 notes which feature an interesting load of information about midi triggers and frequencies etc.

Hi Everyone

I'm wondering if we have any modular synth gurus who can help me improve the FM synthesis functionalities of the audio system.

I bit off a big project which is going to...

I love the concept of it - It's a perfect demospace for the audio library :)

You should do a kickstarter or similiar - I'm sure it would sell if it was supplied with a fully working basic drum...

I'd be interested in one! I need to pick up my beats by teensy project and it's going to get a processor upgrade and hopefully eliminate the mess of wires. This board would achieve that in fine...

I’d recommend a teensy 3.2 absolute minimum but for the price - a teensy 3.6 is so much more powerful. I like sledgehammer engineering. Hit it with much more than you need!

That’s all long since working fine.

With a teensy 3.6 you’d be able to use an sdcard at the same time as “music” if by music you mean synth sounds.

If by music you mean mp3 decoding....you’ll...

would be pretty cool to add a touch membrane over it :)

For what it's worth - (And I do love the idea of what you're doing - built this back in 2001 - https://hackaday.io/project/4180-digital-vinyl)

I think you'd be much better off using control vinyl...

Awesome work sir. The potential of this project is massive - Scratch for the embedded world.

It would be nice to see the slightly more comprehensive timer library implemented which supports...

Thank you Paul - a reasonable compromise and it will make the audio library even more accessible.

All notes? in all scales? That's literally hundreds and hundreds of voices, and you would run out of memory and processing power. That is why. :)

Just western music is 12 notes in at least 8...

You need two voices for a monosyth to do that.

For a polysynth design it could be done many ways - but you would probably need (Number of Voices +1) and use a stack design so you always have...

Chiming in here.......This is a real tough one.

My go to solution if I was authoring this would be to design in my own polyphony engine, and use two (or more) voices per instrument (Frank's...

The final solution.

Frank this is utterly mental :)

I love it ;)

Apologies if you read my post - it was related to the pca9685 not the TLC5940, therefore irrelevant and now deleted

received mine a few days ago - had to pay duties :(

I see some great applications for this, i'm building a home gym in my garage and i have a dream of responsive WS2812b RGB lighting pumping to the music (webradio would be perfect), all triggered from...

Shows what I know. Input option of ADC1 is right there in the gui. I'll shut up now.

Never used it so hadn't noticed it!

The reason I didn't suggest using the ADCs of the 3.2 was because I don't think it's currently supported by the audio library.

AFAIK you need to use mic or line in from the audio board and all the...

just to clarify - i just weighed them for you:
Teensy 3.2 is 2.8g
audio board is 5.1g

assuming the solder pins, solder and microsd card weigh less than 9g then you're golden

OK th best tool for the job here is either the Teensy 3.2, or one of the newer 3.5/6 but they are longer and heavier so stick with a 3.2.

The Audio board should be able to do this to an SD card no...

brilliant......or.....ws2812b....

well this is exciting, i've held off bothering because i need to re-do it all every time i update :)

I've been reading up; Typically Session dj's can meet up at a venue and join an adhoc wifi hotspot from one of the laptops and they can jam together. Risky business! Bit lazy when a gigabit router...

Its only relevant with a midi sequencer engine, really - there isn't one of those yet but the new teensy 3.5/6 makes it possible.

Picking up tempo would be useful for audio effects i suppose, and...

i've done some googling and in c++ you can punch in weak link overrides before runtime via DLL file, i maybe a million miles away but i think you might need to pull in a dll which defines these...

not experienced this at all.......i run chrome alongside teensy and ableton / cubase a lot

Motivation for me is as below, in particular for the audio projects i play around with (i wish i had more time....) I always end up squeezing everything in smaller than i'd like.

Plus the extra...

Love your project sir, that's awesome!!!!!!

Wilco. I've definitely got something wierd going on.

I reinstalled arduino & teensyduino to make use of the new Serial & Midi type, but none of my serial output is coming out.
If I download the...
