Spikenzie’s PolyPhonic SQ is a 64 button, wireless – Bluetooth, MIDI controller with a steampunk twist.

The controller is based on the Project 64 Button board hardware, an Arduino and serial to MIDI software from SpikenzieLabs. It is fully polyphonic – any number of keys may be pressed at the same time and notes are sustained as long as the keys are pressed.

It uses a new version of the SpikenzieLabs Serial – MIDI Converter software which also allows you to select the baud rate of your serial port. (The new version will be available for download next week.)

Note: “It works equally well with a USB cable but the bluetooth is sort of fun.”
