Knobby sammich

Hi Midiboxers.

Total novice question here. Is there any way to add more knobs to the sammich? Instead of having to step through menus to get to the control parameters, I would like to have knobs set up ready to twiddle. Can I buy a midi keyboard like Oxygen 25 and link the knobs that it has to my sammich? Would this require a change to the sammich firmware ? Thanks.

Yep. You can assign specific CC’s to the knobs/buttons on a MIDI keyboard. The manual has all of the CC implementation

May I ask another question? If I wanted to design and build a control surface, to my own specification, is there a suitable project here to modify for this? Where would be a good starting point?

the sammichSID (<- read that a few times, sammich not Sammitch) is just one of the many possible implementations for a MIDIbox SID v2. Essentially you can take the full Step C CS and remove everything you don’t want. Or add stuff. It’s up to you.

Thanks guys!
