This Arduinome is an innovative and fun to develop Arduino based project. The Arduinome is a Monome project, which it is a USB MIDI and Open Sound Control surface for music, art and other purposes. Plus, it was built based on Open Source principles, thus it’s making the whole project more easily to use and develop as well!

The Arduinome is the main spirit of the Monome. Why? Firstly, it’s definitely a breakthrough on the availability front. Secondly, it does make the hardware hacking on the Monome far easier and allowing people to make microcontroller-level modifications on the Arduino platform without any hassle!

The Monome is not only a simple controller interface in the Arduinome project, but it also a new way of thinking about interface design. The main point of the Monome concept is to minimal the size while keep it in open-ended form. Therefore, this idea is highly reflected in Monome’s decision to make the firmware and software open-source.

The Monome is definitely the perfect interface to try then port it to the Arduino microcontroller. In addition, the open source features of the monomer making it so special and become more popular in the Arduinome!
