A MIDI Controller made with Teensy 3.2 and Arduino + A VST plugin enabling its use in Ableton made with JUCE and Maximilian

The goal of the controller and plugin is to allow scratching of audio clips through Ableton for live performance use. Instead of having to choose between mixing through a program like Serato or Tracktor or performing using a program like Ableton, you can now use the controller to trigger and manipulate audio clips while performing live.

Using a Teensy 3.2 board as the microcontroller, the controller features 4 push buttons , a fader and a jog wheel. All code for the controller was written in C using the Arduino IDE.

• CC1-CC4: push buttons
• CC5: Rotary encoder button
• CC10: Fader position (sent on change)
• CC20: Encoder value (sent on change)

The VST plugin uses JUCE for the UI and audio pipeline, and Maximilian for DSP. The plugin loads a piece of audio and allows scrubbing through the clip.
