DUC is an open hardware and software project for controlling DAWs. Built using several Arduinos communicating using I2C.
There will be 4 different sketches, one for each module type.
The master module is called TCM (Traffic Controller Module) and is responsible for translating messages using the internal protocol DCP into messages understood by the host.
3 types ot slave modules is used: CSM (Channel Strip Module), MCM (Master Channel Module) and CM (Command Module).
The initial version uses the Mackie protocol (MCU), which makes it possible to use the DUC with most DAWs.
Features
- Exhangable host protocol
- Maximum 32 CSM + 1 MCM + 1 CM
- Modular (TCM required, the rest is up to you)
- I2C communication between modules
- 16-bit fader resolution (converted to 14-bit for Mackie)
