I wrote a library to use Arduino Due as synthesizer and sampler, with audio 12-bits / 44kHz. No shield needed.
The synthesizer is based on DDS synthesis. You can choose to use several oscillator per voice.
Sampler reads one-shot samples on SD card.
There is also a filter.
I put some comments in the library code, some explainations in the groovuino blog, but don't hesitate to ask questions if you are interested in the library, and tell me where there is a lack of explainations.
I spend a lot of time on this project since weeks, so I no more realize what is comprehensible or not.
I can ensure you that it's not very hard to do (once the library is made). The hardest part was to build the case with plexy. (You can see it's not very nice)
Maybe one day we'll all have a 3d printer at home and it will be so easy...
Greetings Gaith! I have a question- I was trying to load up and play with your "monosynth" example that you posted on your github along with the Groovuino code. I can't get it to compile correctly- do you have a more up-to-date version of that code?
Hi,
Thanks for your interest.
Sorry, the library changed a lot since I had written this example, so it didn't work anymore.
I just made some changes, and now it will work. You'll have to load again the library from guithub, and copy the new code I updated in my post.
But be aware, this example requires the groovuino hardware. (buttons, LEDs, pots...)
The samplers examples are more easy to make it work, it only needs an SD card reader.
If all this examples seem too much complex to you, you can give me an idea of a simple example synth to build (1 pot for pitch, 1 pot for filter, for example), and I will post that. It will surely help other people.
I tend to view the iOS version of Gadget as more of a groovebox, much closer to Ampify Groovebox than an actual DAW. all in one music construction kit, walled garden approach, no daw-like audio tracks. Many even consider Maschine to be a groovebox, so by that standard, even Nano Studio 2 would apply.
On the subject of Groovebox's, I would love to see Roland port a modern version of the the MC series to iOS. Seems like the perfect platform for them to do it on. Although, it also seems that for the most part they have little interest in iOS. Shame really since they really coined the term and all.
Thanks everyone. I downloaded Groove Rider and Groovebox based on feedback here. I briefly played with Groovebox and it seems cool and promising. It still has a Garageband feel to me where you are just combining pre made loops and they app matches tempo and key and makes it all sound good. I know you can edit loops or build them from scratch too but I didn't play with it that long because Groove Rider is exactly what I was looking for. So far Groove Rider does everything my Circuit and Digitakt could do and it actually seems deeper then either of those hardware boxes. Poison also happens to be my go to synth over several more expensive ones I have like Moog ones and Nave so I am definitely a fan of Jim Audio. Loving this app so far

The pattern selection is from the patterns you have available within the packs you own, but there is logic behind it...the pattern you get is still applicable to the type of sound (pad or a pluck for example) of the preset you chose.
Both Propellerhead/Reason Studios and Novation/Ampify have been rather wishy-washy on the iOS platform. Personally, I'd be fine if the big names in music making software abandoned the platform and left it to the smaller shops and indie devs.
Fair play, and I will give IK and Korg credit for being fairly consistent, But unfortunately, they are the exception when it comes to the majors. In addition to Reason and Ampify, Native Instruments, Arturia, and Akai are three more examples demonstrating lack of commitment. Generally speaking, a lot of them just seem interested in selling sound banks and sample packs on iOS.
As a midi nerd has anyone got any views on comparative ableton synths when exporting the midi of groovebox to Abelton live. I can't find any that sound anywhere near as good as the ones in groovebox, but I only have Live lite. I guess I should just get it how I want in groovebox and use the audio.
A highlight of Superbooth 22 was the Polyend Play. Teased days before, it was officially presented in Berlin. One feature that stands out about this grid-based groovebox is the built-in sequencer engine. Deep and sophisticated but useable very playfully.
Play+ is a new/old sample and synth-based groovebox with 16 tracks. Old because Play+ retains the original Play design and powerful, fun sequencer engine. This includes various play modes, hands-on MIDI mangling options, randomization, and more.
One of these new features is a new stereo sample playback engine, allowing for a more nuanced and expansive sonic journey. It ships with all-new stereo sample packs, expanding the factory library to over 5000+ professional samples.
A highlight of the new Play+ are the four distinct synth engines, giving the Play+ 8 synth voices in total. Something many have wanted. And according to Polyend, there will be more synth engines in future updates.
Then, FAT is an analog modeling synth engine that brings the lush, vintage warmth of classic analog synths to the Play +. It has a classic subtractive design with oscillators, filters, etc.
Next to this is a virtual analog polysynth (VAP) engine that hosts a dual-oscillator architecture with a versatile modulation matrix. Again with a subtractive design but is made for poly sounds.
The backside remains unchanged and features the same I/O as the original Play. It includes a stereo line/headphones out, a type B minijack-based MIDI in/out, a microSD card slot, a USB-C port, and a power on/off button.
However, the upgrade path casts a shadow. I welcome hardware upgrade options, but I find it very pricey, especially because the hardware only came on the market in May 2022. So, one year and seven months.
they had to design around thses circumstances. and even if it werent the case, you are buying tools not making investments, and strategies like this for are far more environmentally friendly and sustainable.
Cirklon 2 is the latest version of our multi-track hardware sequencer. With the same MIDI, CV and USB device connectivity as its predecessor, it adds USB host support, a full-colour TFT display, 4 x data memory and a major CPU performance boost....
Pattern mode is nearly complete! There's a mixer section, pattern storage, and a few editing tools. Good thing, too, since I think I'm coming up at the limits of what the Pico-8 CPU can reliably handle.
WARNING: Be careful if you play this cart on the web! Audio playback performs poorly on some OS/browser combinations and you may get loud crackling or popping noises. Turn your volume down before playing for the first time. If you have browser trouble, try it in native Pico-8. Or in a forthcoming native app export that I'll probably put up somewhere!
More editing features are sorely needed, and the device enable toggles (mute buttons or pattern enable? not sure) are not yet implemented. Otherwise, pattern mode is more or less done, leaving me with around 3k tokens for song mode and parameter automation.
Loading from clipboard worked "mostly fine" in the web player for me on the original version of the cart you posted - I believe it worked because I pressed ctrl+v before selecting the option in the pause menu. (I use Firefox on Windows.) (I believe that just using the option in the pause menu alone or ctrl+v alone was not enough. Perhaps someone else knows more about the details of this, or perhaps you can experiment and see if pressing ctrl+v helps get it to work for you.)
Chrome seems to be a problem. I posted about it on Android in 2019, and I have seen others post about it since then. I think that the only person who might be able to do something about it - if something can be done via Pico-8 - is @zep
I opted to require both ctrl+v and pause to load since I liked the idea of using the clipboard as a sort of checkpoint or undo buffer, and I couldn't find a way to detect the ctrl-v event without modifying clipboard state. I'll admit it's not the most intuitive, though, and there's probably a better way.
@dw817 Thanks for checking out the clipboard stuff! Glad to know it's working there. Not sure why my browser is being so fussy. On the sound front, I certainly wish I could just lowpass the output and be done with it, but given that the problem is happening only in some browsers, and not in native Pico-8, I'm pretty sure the issue isn't on the synthesis side. I've tried messing around with buffer lengths and audio update timing to avoid the dropouts, but no luck...
