More than three years ago, I started a thread about a DIY Midi Controller I built:

https://www.madbeanpedals.com/forum/index.php?PHPSESSID=eabc2027e4865c0f53bfe13b51bdbf5b&topic=33087.0

This thing has been on my pedalboard ever since, but I redesigned it to use another microprocessor (Arduino Pro Micro). I also created a website with all required ressources (3D-print-files, drill-templates, build instructions, programming guide,...):

Add-On: This new version will also be recognized by you computer as an input device once connected to your USB-C-Port. This being said, it can control your DAW or plugins or anything midi on your computer as well...

Enjoy reading, building, programming, playing.

How loud is too loud?  What?

Thanks for sharing.
I was just starting to investigate arduino based controller for a mod.audio raspberry Pi based modeler/multi pedal. I'll need 4 pots and 3 footswitches.  Yet another world to explore.

A raspberry Pi based modeler? Wow - the world has come a long way since Fuzz pedals ;-)

It sure did. then, i built probably half a dozen fuzzes this year and as no modeler can capture fuzz for bananas, seems i'll do just as much next year bc i need every each one of them.
That being said. i really recommand taking a look at https://mod.audio/ download the mod desktop app and try it on your pc, mac whatever it is that you use to mainly browse what's remaining of the web.

This thing is really fun.

Thanks, I surely will do - looks like it would be a perfect setup with the ekano.
