Bare Conductive MPR121 sketch for analog MIDI CC values

Bare Conductive Touch USB MIDI interface code

Simple touch-to-USB-MIDI code for the Bare Conductive Touch Board. Touching an electrode sends a USB MIDI message with a note - the 12 electrodes are mapped to a scale with one semitone per electrode - 12 semitones = 1 octave!

Requirements

• Arduino 1.5.6 or later

• Arduino's instructions for installing libraries are available here

• Bare Conductive MPR121 library (zip file download here)

• ARcore Arduino Hardware Plugin (zip file download here) - instructions on installing this hardware plugin folder are available here.

Install

1. Close the Arduino IDE if you have it open.

2. Download the .zip or clone the repository to your local machine - if downloading the .zip, extract the contents somewhere that suits you.

3. Take the Midi_interface folder and move it to Arduino Sketchbook Folder. This will be different for each operating system:

   Windows

   Libraries\Documents\Arduino

   or

   My Documents\Arduino

   Mac

   Documents/Arduino

   Linux (Ubuntu)

   Home/Arduino

   If this folder does not exist, create it first.

4. Reopen the Arduino IDE - you should now be able to open the sketch in the File -> Sketchbook menu.
