This is the prototype I made using a Teensy 4 and the enclosure I made in Fusion 360:

arduino code for a teensy 4 or 4.1 midi controller specifically designed for use with voicemeeter bannana and simple broadcasting for streaming or video conferencing

this project uses:

• resposiveanalogread - https://github.com/dxinteractive/ResponsiveAnalogRead
• keypad - https://github.com/Chris--A/Keypad

For the electronics I used:

• 24 blue "clicky" mechancial keyboard switches configured in a matrix of rows and columns. Diodes on the rows of the matrix.
• 8 75mm 10k potentiometers
• 2 rotary potentiometer I salvaged from a broken midi controller. They are 3 pin but I don't know their specs.

voice meeter banana has 10 channels. I designed this console for my use and it may not apply for everyone, but I think this is a common application:

• 3 "physical" inputs

  • mic input from user
  • input for desktop audio (browser, specific applications, etc)
  • input for game audio

• 2 virtual inputs

  • VoiceMeeter Input - input for "catchall" audio from system (system notifications, etc)
  • VoiceMeeter Aux Input - input for voice input (discord, video conferencing, etc)

• 3 "physical" outputs

  • A1 - physical sound card using stable driver (requirement of voicemeeter to run well)
  • A2 - output to wired headset (backup for me when wireless headset is not charged, etc)
  • A3 - output to wireless headset (2.4ghz, bluetooth)

• 2 virtual outputs

  • B1 - VoiceMeeter Output
  • B2 - VoiceMeeter Aux Output

The physical console has:

• 8 dedicated sliders
  • mic in volume (slightly offset from the other 4 input channels)
  • virtual input 2
  • virtual input 3
  • physical input 1
  • physical input 2
  • physical output 1 (A1)
  • physical output 2 (A2)
  • physical output 3 (A3)
• 2 rotary knobs on channel 1 (my mic in)
  • Compression and Noise Gate adjustments but can be assigned to anything
• 24 dedicated switches
  • mic mute for mic in channel
  • mute, A1, A2, A3 buttons for each virtual and physical input
  • mute buttons for each phsyical output (A1, A2, A3)
  • 4 misc assignable switches
  • I use 1 for a Voicemeeter macro to 'Reset Audio Engine' when I connect a bluetooth headset.

Wiring: I don't know how to sketch a pcb wiring diagram so this is the best I can do. I separated the analog and digital pin wiring so it wouldn't be as confusing. Analog is for potentiometers and digital is the switches for the keypad matrix.

Analog wiring:

Digital wiring: You can use any diodes for the keypad matrix. Make sure the black mark is on the circut side of the connection.
