midi control of things that tap and go boink. The basic structure consists of a midi-interface that takes data from Ableton (or similar) and sends events to 'dimmer cards' - being called like that because initially they mostly controlled LED light.
Two behaviours exist on the main board right now which can be set using a small dip switch: either pulse-lenght or pwm duty cycle as third 'velocity' argument in a MIDI command.
current version (still in operation) uses an ATmega328 (started out with the ATmega8 and then the ATmega88 in WinAVR. now it uses the Arduino environment). In the meantime a version has been made using Teensy, but has not been further pursued / produces (when Teensies were made of nonobtanium). On the wishlist a new version with pico
modules
- actuators 3D printfiles for solenoid holders
- atmegaDimmer first generation dimmer/control box, using RS485(dynamixel) protocol, using ATmega328
- RS485adapter RS485 - midi interface using ATmega32U4 (Arduino micro, native USB)
- teensyDimmer update of dimmer/control box, using Teensy 4.0. build, not tested
- picoDimmer new (to be designed) version of the dimmer/control box using RPI Pico 2040/2350

Questions
How big is the Anarchytechnobox PCB?
It measures 132.6 × 100 mm and has 4 copper layers, 1.66 mm thick.
What parts does the Anarchytechnobox use?
292 parts, built around the 74LVC1G126Z, DRV8245SQPWPRQ1, ADPL54203ES8E#PBF and XL-1010RGBC-2812B. The full list of its parts is on this page, with links to each part's symbol and footprint where PCBKit's library has them.
Where can I download the Anarchytechnobox KiCad files?
From the edwindertien/foundscape repository on GitHub, at the commit this page was made from: the board is anarchitechno-box/kicad/anarchytechnobox.kicad_pcb and its schematic anarchitechno-box/kicad/MIDI.kicad_sch. PCBKit opens the board in the browser, with nothing to install.
Can I use the Anarchytechnobox design in my own project?
Its repository states no licence, so its author keeps all rights: ask edwindertien before reusing the design.
