sparkfun electronics UMC32 USB-MIDI Controller

available via sparkfun

"Description: The UMC32 is an OEM/DIY product that allows electronic musicians, multimedia artists, experimenters, and users with little or no electronics experience the ability to create custom user interfaces to control any software application that supports the MIDI protocol. The UMC32 provides the essential core (micro controller, power supply, USB functionality) to allow the user to easily implement their choice of control elements (example: switches, pots and or faders). In short, the UMC32 will allow you to build your own USB-MIDI controller.

No programming is necessary. Onboard DIP switches allow simple configuration of MIDI note or controller data.

Features:

* Easy to implement with little or no electronics experience.
* 32 analog and/or digital inputs provides MIDI note or continuous controller data to your host application.
* USB bus powered. A single USB cable handles power and data.
* Upgradeable firmware via Windows XP / Vista bootloader utility.
* True plug-and-play (USB-MIDI class compliant drivers are provided by the operating system)
* 64 I/O’s can be achieved by linking two UMC32’s together using the UMC-Linker board (sold separately).
* Multiple units can co-exist on the USB bus.
* Compatible with Mac OS X 10.5.x(Leopard), Mac OS X 10.4.x(Tiger), Windows Vista / XP / 2000.

Can't tell if that's Richard Simmons...

"On some requests, for use in your own productions, these beats can be downloaded in HQ and stripped versions at: http://www.zenhiser.com/categories/Dr...

They are included in the "198x" downloads on this page, with other Oberheim DMX, CR78 and TR808 loops, each representing the styles in a year in the 80s

Enjoy!
