[LAU] DIY or inexpensive MIDI Controller

[Jeff Sandys]

I plan on using the Arduino for this type of controller.

There is a nice PD interface built for it, that you could program a MIDI out
add on if you want to use the signals in something other than Pure Data.

Here is a project that used the Arduino to make a MIDI Drum Kit and Spooky
Sound Trigger:

IMHO the AVR controllers are more versatile than the PIC controllers and the
Arduino is designed as a simple i/o board suitable for DIY projects.
