MIDI Drumpad and Looper based on RP2040 (Work in Progress) - Loopster 2.0
Hiya, just wanted to share some progress / new features on this new thing that I'm working on. Software features will be ported to the Loopster 1.0.
Lil mailing list type thing here if you are interested in updates:
https://djbajablast.gumroad.com/l/mid...
Notable New Features:
MIDI IN / Out (USB and DIN)
RGB lights for user feedback
Arpeggiator mode - turn encoder to play notes
Save and load presets (selected bank, scale, midi ch, etc.)
Extra RP2040 pins are broken out as headers for tinkering
Record chords / notes to pad. Play back as 1shot or loop
Quantization, quantization percent for chord mode loops
Set BPM or get it from MIDI clock in
RP2040 built into PCB instead of soldering on rasps pico
Buncha other small improvements.
Code (constantly in flux and sometimes broken):
