a 72 channel MIDI controller as virtual mixing console
 
DIY MIDI Controller with mixing function

72 rotary encoders are included in the box. A Xilinx FPGA is used to interpret the movement information and send it over 460kbaud serial interface to the computer or the DIY audio workstation. The controller data is 10 bits with 1024 step resolution using intelligent acceleration. The FPGA is also used to control the data streams. See an older version of my MIDI controller for more details.


 If desired the transmission speed could be increased up to 920kbaud, but 460k is the limit of my PC's UART interface. The data follows my improved MIDI.

A next step is to implement the MIDI over S/PDIF for fast transmission and adaption to the workstation.
