Issue 25 – HackSpace magazine: Lights, buttons, music with Adafruit NeoTrellis #NeoTrellis #Music #Adafruit @Adafruit @HackSpaceMag

HackSpace Magazine Issue 25 features a music synth project by Ben Everard using the popular Adafruit NeoTrellis board.

It combines an interface that’s responsive, tactile, and flexible (both literally and metaphorically) with a microcontroller that’s powerful enough for some interesting audio effects.

The project is coded in the Arduino IDE.
