DIY MIDI Projects
Are you interested in PIC microcontroller programming? ARM programming? Music and sound? Synthesizers and Sequencers? If so, MIDIbox is the place for you! (No previous experience required.)
MIDIbox is a freely available non-commercial project that provides hardware designs and software for use in musically oriented devices, including sequencers, sound generators, and user interface/control devices.
Non-commercial means that you may access MIDIbox intellectual property for private, personal use only. Put simplistically, the price of entry to the MIDIbox world is that you pick up a soldering iron and learn to assemble projects. Why spend tens, if not hundreds, of dollars on ebay rip-offs of MIDIbox projects when you can save money and have the satisfaction of building something yourself?
May 7, 2009 - I've been offline for the last couple months, and now I'm transferring all my web pages to a "real" web server. (I used to publish everything from my mac.com account, but I'm not pleased with Apple's new "me.com"...) Before I'm done, you'll probably get a lot of "404" errors on my links. Please bear with me, I'm going as fast as I can!
You can contact me at doug at midibox addict dot com, or send me a PM on the MIDIbox forum.

Cases I'm making for my performance rig: MB-808 and MB-9090 on ends,
MB-SEQ in front middle, MB-6582 and x0xb0x in back middle.
(All cases are metal with wood side panels, and all have a 15 degree tilt.)
More info soon!
