On this page we are documenting everything that is needed to create rapid prototypes of a complete electronic music instrument/controller.

Contents 1 3D printing 2 Sensor interfaces 3 Communication 4 Sensors 5 Amplifiers 6 Speakers 7 Force Feedback

3D printing

• 3D-printer
• Creating a 3D print
• Solidworks

Sensor interfaces

• CUI:
• Arduino
• Phidgets: commercial USB-based sensor interface with standardized connectors.

Communication

• OSC: Open Sound Control for communicating between devices
• uOSC: Open Sound Control Reference Platform for Embedded Devices
• SLIP: Serial Line Internet Protocol

Sensors

Sensors used for finger control:

• Interlink MicroNav 360: XY + pressure sensor
• Interlink FSRs

• Microsoft unmouse pad prototype

Acceleration:

• SparkFun

Position sensing

• Gametrak: 3D "golf" joystick

Amplifiers

• Charlize: a Tripath Class-T amp based on the Tripath TA2020
• Sonic Impact 5065: Gen 2 T-Amp with Power Supply

Speakers

• Visaton: speaker elements
• FOXL: small powered speakers. S&R review

Force Feedback

• Internal Combustion Guitar
