Control your MOTU AVB soundcard with your MCU enabled controller

Based on documentation from MOTU: http://cdn-data.motu.com/downloads/audio/AVB/avb_osc_api.pdf

Work in progress...

This program convert data from your Midi controller and send it to your MOTU sound interface. It can be placed on your computer or on a RaspberryPi like computer board.

• Connect your MCU (in my case a BCF2000) to the RaspberryPi with USB and connect the RaspberryPi to the network where the MOTU soundcard is.
• Run the main.py program (you can use --ip arguments to set the MOTU interface IP address)
• That's it!
• Faders should move to their corresponding positions and active outputs should be lighted.

• Choose between output mode, or mixer mode by using buttons (encoder group buttons) (displays the mode on the assign 7segments screen)
• Control outputs (output mode):
• • Headphones, with faders, select to enable
• • Main output, with faders, select to enable
• Control inputs from strip 1 to 8 (mixer mode):
• • Solo, mute, Pan and Faders
• Store settings in a database
• Function buttons:
• • F1: clear solo button
• • F2: Mute / Unmute all
• • F3 -> F7: not used now, inspiration welcome!
• • F8: Dim Main output (apply -20dB on main)

• Need to group requests to minimize network traffic

• Need to handle gain

• Handle banks to use multiple layers of fader if more than 8 channels

• Handle flip mode (invert fader and rotary vPot)

• Handle the send mode:

• • Using already defined personal send vues
• • Selecting a send output, then selecting all desired strips to add to the vue

• Handle MCU extension for larger setups

• Display track names and different values on scribbles

• Create a virtual strip to control EQ, Comp, and Limiter (web vue?)

• Improve setup routine (via a remote web interface or directly ) to setup the MOTU IP address and other relevant settings directly from the controller, without using the computer/rapspi
