The Kontrol Freak is BACK, with a brand new video, and this one’s a monster. This video documents the creation of a brand new MIDI instrument, the “Virus Pad”. I go into a lot of detail, silly mistakes included, showing you how I make and connect everything, and how the code works, from start to finish.
The finished instrument has looper controls and two different playing modes, one for percussion and drums, and one for melody and chords. The project includes:
- DIY force sensitive resistors (FSR) out of velostat
- Multiplexers and voltage dividers
- Making an instrument box from recycled materials
- Sensor and MIDI code in Arduino, on a Teensy microcontroller
- Reading sensors and interpreting input
- many other interesting details.
The code for this project is here: github.com/Kon...
Here is a shorter video, where I show you how I developed the DIY FSR sensors: • Making a DIY analog fo...

Hope you enjoy. Stay safe, and I'll see you in the Kontinuum!
