Step 1: Prepare the Stuff

The controller : Arduino Leonardo / Pro micro (Native USB)

Tally : Arduino NANO / UNO

5 Project Boards

1 Multiplexer 16 Channel 4067

17 Tact Buttons

10 Pots/Faders

16 Resistors

8 Green LEDs

8 Red LEDs

Jumper wires (Lots of)

Step 2: Wiring the Controller

Check the Schema and start to wiring the controller

Step 3: Wiring the Tally Lights

Wiring the tally light

Preview pin :

2, 4, 6, 8, 10, 12, 14, 16

Active LED pin:

3, 5, 7, 9, 11, 13, 15, 17

Step 4: Upload the Code

I already compiling & build the code so you dont need the library.

All you do is upload the code using Arduino Builder (check the download link for details)

Step 5: Mapping the Controller

Im using arduino pro micro/leonardo. its Native USB, so I dont need the software MIDI serial Bridge anymore.

The arduino pro micro/leonardo will detect as Standalone MIDI Device.

Mapping the controller using shortcut menu on vMix

Step 6: Tips

The Arduino will start/run the after you uploading it, so its better to
connect all the potentiometers before you turn on the arduino, or you will not be able to mapping the controller.
