The Builder Brain is the central device in the Builder line of products. Connecting components to its pins turns your collection of parts into a MIDI controller.

The Brain is a USB-powered class-compliant MIDI device and converts digital and analog signals into MIDI, and takes MIDI input to control LEDs. Completely configurable with the simple to use Brain Editor software, this board can control up to 64 analog inputs, 179 Buttons, and 48 LEDs. Flexible and adaptable, buttons and LEDs can be connected directly to the pins, or, with some additional soldering, extended with scanned matrices (multiplexed).

Creative builders willing to experiment can go beyond common knobs, sliders and buttons, and experiment with unusual sensors, such as bend, distance, proximity, temperature, and tilt.
