| These projects will be built as standard applications as per ucapps.de ... But to call any DIY project "stock" is misleading, because every project will differ a little. I will surely do customised casing and control surfaces for most of these. | These projects will be built as standard applications as per ucapps.de ...

Not to be confused with the midibox axe, which is a seriously hot-rodded toy guitar with a few buttons for pitch, this design is based on ribbon controllers. Ask me if you're interested in this, at this stage it is too early to write about it here. | + | * MIDIBox Guitar - Ribbon controller based MIDI guitar. Concept by **[[Wilba]]**.

| + | |||
| + | * [[midiboxfx_-_midifiying_analog_gear|MBFX]] - MIDIBox controlled audio FX. Concept by any one of about 5 billion people ;) Could also be adapted to other purposes where digitally controlled resistors or voltage dividers, or digitally controlled switching, is required. MIDI up your favourite amp head, stomp box, analog synth or individual modular synth modules | ||

No final featureset has been decided upon as yet. |
