Livid Builder v2

Livid Builder is a line of Do-It-Yourself parts that make it easy for makers to design their own MIDI control surfaces and devices using buttons, knobs, encoders, velocity pads, arcade buttons, accelerometers, faders, other sensors, and talkback LED’s. The easy-to-use Omni Board allows you to easily configure and create a MIDI control device using modular circuit boards that can be organized and arranged into customized setups and configurations.

The Livid Builder line is inspired by our own desires to create custom controllers using quality production-grade parts, without the need to create custom circuit boards for every design. Even if you have no experience with electronics we have designed the Builder series and provide tutorials to make it easy for beginners and productive for advanced hackers.

Brain v2

The Builder Brain v2 is the central device in the Builder line of products. Connect components to the Brain and turn your collection of parts into a MIDI controller. The Brain is “USB-powered class-compliant MIDI” and converts digital and analog signals into MIDI output and receives MIDI input to control LEDs. It can also be operated without a USB host, using an optional 5V power supply. With user-programmable MIDI output, this board can control up to 64 analog inputs, 128 Buttons, and 192 LEDs with added components for bright LEDs. Components are easily connected with ribbons cables and we’ve created the Omni Board to allow dozens of layouts with a single circuit board.
