MOARkNOBS-42

2025 • Open-source microcontroller MIDI controller •

MOARkNOBS-42 prototype control surface.

Grows out of earlier prototype, flight, sound, and maintenance threads: control becomes embodied, measurable, teachable, and repairable.

Summary

A documented hardware-test MIDI/OSC prototype with configurable controls, a browser configurator, and teaching-oriented source documentation; part of an inquiry into authorship, control, and access.

Methods

  • Systems/Tools: Teensy, Arduino, Processing; documented bench and latency-measurement methods
  • Ethics/Consent: No PII; open documentation; reproducibility
