A DIY wireless MIDI-OSC bridge with the Raspberry Pi #piday #raspberrypi @Raspberry_Pi
Here’s a great PD project for your Pi — setting up a DIY wireless MIDI-OSC Bridge!
With a wlan stick, a battery pack, and Pure Data the Raspberry Pi becomes a swissarmy knife for MIDI and OSC.
In an ongoing project to make wearable non-standard musical controllers we found the vmeter which is a nicely sized touch strip with the one drawback that it is a usb device and as such wired. We looked into ways to make a wireless usb or MIDI connection or anything similar and found close to nothing that suited our needs (battery powered, small, flexible). After thinking about this for a while it occured to me that building our own system actually should take close to no hardware hacking and only a little software tinkering. So we decided to build our own. Basically a Raspberry Pi with a WLAN stick and a battery pack is all you need.
Each Friday is PiDay here at Adafruit, be sure to check out our posts, tutorials and new Raspberry Pi related products. Have you tried the new “Adafruit Raspberry Pi Educational Linux Distro” ? It’s our tweaked distribution for teaching electronics using the Raspberry Pi. But wait, there’s more! Try our new Raspberry Pi WebIDE! The easiest way to learn programming on a Raspberry Pi.
We now have Raspberry Pi Model B with 512MB RAM in stock and shipping now!
