Playtron & the ARP 2600 M


video upload by

"Just having some fun using the Playtron by Playtronica to create a "spoon keyboard", visualy inspired by the Buchla 116. I decided to play the ARP 2600 M with it because I can plug the Playtron directly and use it without having to use a computer in between."

A picture perfect MIDI controller!

"@PlayTronica sent me their #PLAYTRON #midi controller which enables you to use any conductive object as a 'keyboard' for your soft- or hardware #synthesizer . So here's an epic Vangelis-Style performance using some cutlery and the 'Celebration' patch of the Yamaha EX5.

Have you ever tried Playtron?


video upload by PanicGirlVids

"@Playtronica was kind enough to send me this futuristic looking device, so I could try it out and make music with it 🙌 It is basically a MIDI Controller, but the fun part is that you can connect it to anything that conducts electricity. And not only that, with their conductive fabric tape you can connect it to literally anything you set your mind to! So I connected it to my beloved props that I use for my videos, this way I could finally use them to actually make music 😂😂

Did you ever try it? And if so, what did you connect it to?

The devices were here for testing. if you are interested in the devices. below I have linked the products. if you like the video feel free to leave a like and comment. the days there is another techno jam. take care of yourselves.

PLAYTRON: https://shop.playtronica.com/products... [additional posts here]
MIDI BIODATA: https://electricityforprogress.square..."

MIDI BIODATA is new to the site. Pic of the DIY kit and some info for the archives:



"Build your own Biodata Sonification system and connect to synthesizers using MIDI, Bluetooth, or Wifi! This kit contains all of the parts required for assembly including the Biodata circuit board, 555 Timer, Adafruit ESP32 Feather, LiPo battery, and 3D printed Enclosure. You will need soldering equipment, a small phillips screwdriver, and a well ventilated space for assembly. This kit can be 'modified' to exclude the Enclosure (if you want to print your own!), the Adafruit ESP32 Board (the brains of the operation, you might already have one!), different sized batteries, or just a bare circuit board.

Sónar+D 2018: Playtronica shows us its quirky MIDI controllers


Published on Jun 15, 2018 FACTmagazine

"Synthesizers don't have to be played with black and white keys: in recent years we've seen the rise of grid controllers, tablets and squishy, multi-touch surfaces for music-making. Quirky startup Playtronica is trying to make MIDI interfaces even more fun, bringing fruit and color recognition into the mix.

We visited Playtronica's stand at this weekend's Sónar+D in Barcelona – the sister event to Sónar's long-running music festival – to find out more about how its fun MIDI controllers can enable anyone to make a whole orchestra out of pineapples, use a color palette as a rhythmic sequencer and use the human body as an instrument."
