[microsound] Arduino Chip

[Kovacs Balazs]

  hi,

me.

pros:
- it's good to build an interface around, because the 6 analog I/o is 10 
bit (midi is 7 bit)
in resolution
- it can run standalone
-  the 12 digital i/o can drive 12 servos (for building robot-musicians 
etc), can produce
12 pwm signals or can handle 12 led, button etc.

contra:
- it converts You from a glich artist to a diy artist ;)

some works:

cheers,
