DIY Arduino Midi Controller for Music Production - Made With | Fusion360 | STL Files | PCB |
This is the first functional 3D printable MIDI controller. It works for DAWs like Ableton, FL Studio, any software that use midi protocol including apps in playStore (Android) and also Windows platform. Just plug it in and the Arduino is automatically detected. I created a PCB and Fusion 360 project and selected the electronic components that make the button smoother and more comfortable. In this project you will find 3D files, Gerber files (PCB) and the steps to make your own.
Supplies
For this project you will need:
- Arduino Pro Micro
- PCB (Gerber File attach)
- 3D Printer parts
- 25 Silicon Switch
- 25 Zener Diodes
- wires
- Soldering Tools
- 6 Screws (1.5 in)
Order PCB and Electronic Components
Go to my google drive so you can find the Gerber (zip), so you can ordered in any platform that you like...
Some Good Examples are:
Google Drive -> Click Here!
In JLCPCB go to My file section and upload the file with the name (Gerber_PCB_PCB_KEYS_2.rar) then adjust the color only, I recommend the green color because is less expensive. other parameter lefts in default. place the address order, payment details and ordered!
Electronic Components:
- Silicone Switchs
I Order the silicon switchs here! You can order the exact amount or 1000 pieces for 0.03cents. you'll need 25 Silicon Switchs.
- Zener Diodes
You also need ( 25 ) Zener Diodes you can Order in alibaba.com too (click here)
- Arduino Pro Micro
It is important to use an Arduino Pro Micro because it uses the Atmega32U4. With this microcontroller you can connect any device and it will be detected automatically.

Get Those 3D Files
In this Step you will need to 3D Print the files, if you doesn't have a 3D printer you can order a 3D print service (check JLCPCB 3D Print service ).
Go to my Cults Channel and Download the .Stl files.
Once you have the 3D Files its time to assemble everything.
Arduino Pro Micro Code
Download the Arduino IDE if you are not download Yet (why you don't have it already?) , NOW upload the code MultiKey_funciona_23_1_2022.ino code to the arduino pro micro.
After you upload the code you will notice your pc is detecting a new device it is your new Midi Controller!
Downloads
Connect to Your Favorite DAW
And that's it. Connect to Ableton Live, FL Studio music production software and make this song that will help someone overcome a difficult moment. hope you enjoy it. remember, it doesn't have to be perfect, just do it.
