I use Ableton live a lot to jam and to DJ, and using the mouse to
control all the parameters got in the way quite often. You can’t
select a scene and turn a knob at the same time, switching between
views was tiresome. I first thought about building a midibox, but then decided to build my own midi system
using an AVR microcontroller, which I’m more used to. Blueloop helped me a lot
with the schematics, showing me a nice trick to control LEDs using the
same matrix as for the switches (this is not integrated yet,
though).

“unwritten software has no bugs and executes at speed of mouth” (h. ?)
