Cost Effective Electronic MIDI Pad using Arduino UNO

In the music Industry, A piano is used to generate different types of sounds and music. A piano consists of more than 50 black keys and white keys which are used to generate various sound signals and music. The Musical Instrument Digital Interface (MIDI) is also used to generate different music and sound signal. The main difference between MIDI and piano is the MIDI controller does not have internal sound it can be used with other devices to generate music and sound signal. MIDI controller is generally used to transmit the input data in the form of sound to other devices. MIDI generally outlines a communication protocol and digital interface that can be used to connect various electronic musical devices and related audio devices for playing, editing, and recording. The main advantage of the MIDI controller is that it includes a tiny file size, can easily be modified, manipulate sounds. Nowadays, people use this system for all their needs, but it is mostly used for activating virtual software instruments, in digital audio workstation (DAW) virtual software instruments play a vital role in enhancing the quality of sound. The cost of the proposed MIDI is around Rs. 15000 as compared to a renowned brand having the same specifications.
