OpenDeck
OpenDeck is an open-source platform for building custom MIDI controllers compatible with any MIDI software and hardware on any OS. Using OpenDeck building of MIDI controllers is simpler than ever. Instead of spending time on choosing the right electronics, writing code, and solving lots of unnecessary problems, simply connect components of your MIDI controller into OpenDeck board and you’re done. Additional board configuration can be done online – no installation of extra software is necessary! Check out the video below for an example of what can be built using OpenDeck.
