////// Please check now Dekrispator_v2 repository for new STM32F4Cube HAL based version. //////
Transform your STM32F4 Discovery board into an experimental music synthesizer or autonomous noise box with USB MIDI Host function for interaction !
The sound demos are here : https://soundcloud.com/bluexav

Usage
Flash your board with "dekrispator.hex" (in Release folder) and enjoy hours and hours of sweet music coming of it ! Sounds can be loud so beware !
When powering up the board, the synth starts in "demo mode" unless you press and maintain a little the user button before power. In that case the synth enters "user mode".
Demo mode : The synth works on its own, sounds are perpetually changing. If you press the user button, sounds and effects stop always changing and the red LED lights on : the synth parameters are frozen. Press once again the user button and the red LED lights off : unfreeze.
User mode : Connect an USB MIDI controller (like Korg NanoKontrol...) to the board's micro USB connector and control the synth. The MIDI mapping of the synth controls are in MIDI_mapping.ods file. I nearly used the factory settings of Korg NanoKontrol V1 (some momentary/toggle buttons modified).
The MIDI USB Host driver is rudimentary and has still some issues !
The orange LED reflects the CPU usage : when it's dim CPU gets overloaded.
Ready to use files are in Ressources folder.
Dekrispator features :
Building from source :
