Designed by PaintYourDragon and based on the Adafruit Trellis platform, this DIY kit features 64 translucent silicone buttons with diffused white LEDs, housed in a custom laser-cut acrylic enclosure.\n\nPowered by an Arduino Leonardo (sold separately), the assembled UNTZtrument appears as a USB MIDI device that works instantly with any computer and synthesiser software. The default example program sends MIDI Note On/Off messages for each button press, but you can program it to send any MIDI command — or switch to USB keyboard or serial mode instead.\n\nKey Features\n\n\n64-Button Grid – 8×8 matrix of translucent silicone buttons with individually controllable white LEDs\n\nUSB MIDI – Plug-and-play MIDI controller compatible with any synth software\n\nArduino-Powered – Program via the Arduino IDE; supports USB MIDI, USB keyboard, or USB serial modes\n\nExpandable – Add accelerometers, potentiometers, rotary encoders, and more using existing Arduino libraries\n\nCustom Enclosure – Laser-cut acrylic case with clear body and black top\n\nOpen Source – Fully hackable hardware and software\n\n\nIdeal For\n\nMIDI music controllers and sequencers\nVideo and lighting control interfaces\nCustom input devices and macro pads\nInteractive art installations\n\n\nPackage Contents\n\n4× Trellis control PCBs\n\n4× Trellis Elastomer button pads (64 buttons total)\n70× Diffused white 3mm LEDs (includes spares)\n1× Custom laser-cut acrylic enclosure (clear body, black top)\n\n\nYou Will Also Need\n\nArduino Leonardo\n\n22AWG solid-core wire (stranded will also work)\nSoldering iron and solder\nBasic hand tools\nMicro USB cable\n\n\n\nTip: Want to add knobs and rotary encoders?
