In this video, I'll show you the building process of the MidiMood, a Minimoog based DIY MIDI Controller, made with an Arduino!
The Minimoog is the most iconic analogue synthesizer of all times, with great plugin versions like the Arturia Mini V and the Moog’s Minimoog iPad app.
I always wanted to have better control over my synths and I thought that building a MIDI controller with the layout of the Minimoog was the best way to go. Although it is based on the Minimoog, it can be used with any virtual synth, like Massive, Omnisphere, Sylenth, etc.
This MIDI controller was made using an Arduino Pro Micro, and two multiplexers, besides the potentiometers and toggle switches.
The multiplexers allow me to increase the number of inputs of the Arduino, and the Pro Micro allows me to create a MIDI controller plug and play - MIDI class-compliant. All things that I teach how to do in the MMwA course.
Materials:
➡️ Arduino Pro Micro: amzn.to/2Vcz3Nz
➡️ Wires: amzn.to/2xugvPF
➡️ Rotary potentiometer b10k: amzn.to/3ckRKUY
➡️ Spacers M3 35mm: amzn.to/2z15BkN
➡️ M3 screws: amzn.to/2RHtfJw
➡️ Multiplexer CD4067: amzn.to/303jJVe
➡️ Toggle switch: amzn.to/3hDmORR
Equipment I use:
Video:
➡️ Canon PowerShot G7 X Mark II: amzn.to/2F33z4p
➡️ Softbox light: amzn.to/2LNHtoT
➡️ Camera Tripod: amzn.to/2LM8glp
➡️ Short Flexible Tripos: amzn.to/2A2GXk8
Audio:
➡️ Focusrite Scarlett 2i2: amzn.to/2Zxmv5E
➡️ MXL 990 Condenser Microphone: amzn.to/2tZKtWj
➡️ Rode Videomicro: amzn.to/3cVkXq7
➡️ Lavalier Lapel Microphone Kit: amzn.to/2EOHc16

Impressive, a great solution for musicians on budget! Having real knobs to tweak is just another kind of feeling, then moving them by mouse, the feedback of how your music sounds is instant. Do you think it is possible to make some more advanced controlers like this for Synth1, or any VA in general?

Boa! Eu estava com uma ideia de fazer algo parecido (controlador), porém usando impressão 3D para montar o gabinete. Você não deve se lembrar, mas comentei num vídeo seu, há um ano e meio atrás, sobre como fazer do Arduino um controlador MIDI (comentei como fazer o seu esquema funcionar no Linux). Parei o projeto, pois comecei num trampo e devido à correria eu deixei de lado. Curti muito o vídeo, me lembrou aqueles vídeos do canal 8-bit Keys! Parabéns pelo trabalho! Acabamento show de bola! (E desculpe por comentar em português.)

Hi, I built the controller using your sketch but I put 3 multiplexers because I wanted to have all the controls. Everything works but the Cutoff knob moves the Modulation and the mod mix knob moves the Bend and they are not programmable from Advanced on Arturia's Minimoog. Then the polyphonic led is always on ... Did I do something wrong? Thank you
