== Features ==
* USB-Midi Breath controller
** Send control change messages via Midi to DAW (CC2 breath control)
** Fast and responsive (200 Hz CC2 update rate)
** Easy to clean and easy to dry - pressure sensor can be opened via a slide
** Based on a linear Hall-sensor and two magnets on a membrane cut out of a rubber glove
* USB-Midi X/Y Joystick
** Sends 4 additional CCs
* USB-Midi Optical metronome
** Uses internal RGB LED
** Indicates Beat 1, 2, 3, 4 of optically (no annoying click-sound)
Also other sample-based instruments, especially strings but also organs, can be articulated much nicer using a breath-controller. Often expression (CC11) or breath control (CC2) is supported - so find out. You can change the Arduino code to use CC11 instead of CC2 if you like, I prefer a little M4L device to clone CC2 to CC11 for this purpose...
== Joystick ==
I have added a X/Y Joystick to add the possibility to change another 4 different Control Changes (CC) during my performance. This joystick is easy to get from usual internet locations. However, the joystick I used on the picture is crap as it turned out that is only has a extremely small analog-functioning area in each direction. Despite this, it is easy to connect and uses only 2 analog inputs as well as VCC and GND (+ optional button).
See (and adjust) the source code to see how I mapped directions to different CCs.
== Optical metronome ==
If you use Ableton Live, you often need a metronome. However, the click-clack sound is annoying, so you can use my device to get an optical metronome. Under Ableton Live Preferences enable the "Sync" box to the output of the Midi-Device where this thing is hooked up to. By that, Ableton sends different synchronization commands via Midi to this device and these are used in the Arduino-Code to keep a Song-Position-Counter in Sync with the DAW performance. On every first Beat the LED flashes bright in green and on every 2nd, 3rd and 4th beat the LED flashed less bright in red.
If you don't like to use the LED that way, you can turn off the "Sync" output of Ableton and control the LED manually by sending the notes C, D and E. The velocity of these notes controls the brightness of the red, green and blue LED color components.

== Source code ==
You need Arduino to compile this and you need to [https://learn.adafruit.com/adafruit-trinket-m0-circuitpython-arduino/arduino-ide-setup install the components needed to use the Adafruit Trinket M0] in Arduino as well as the extra-libraries in the beginning of the source code using the Library Manager of Arduino.
