here's a link to a thread of a midi controller I made with a teensy board( similar to arduino and uses arduino coding and software for programming)https://forum.audiob.us/discussion/17710/diy-midi-controller#latest
Wow, both are super cool! Thanks guys for sharing!
Been working on this guy for a couple months. It's running a looping/fm synth/drum pd patch on a pi and communicating with a teensy 3.6 through serial for all the controls and gui. I'll be posting up a video eventually.
Like it!
OMG!!! Like it dude, Awesome!
Based on this maybe?

Can’t wait for the video… and/or details on the build.
Perhaps a silly question… Why do you need the teensy? Couldn’t you do serial communication through the Pi itself? Attended a presentation about serial on RasPi. Not so clear on what’s tricky.
Been dreaming of many RasPi-based musical projects, mostly revolving around non-standard controllers. The Organelle is rather inspiring and at least one person did a fully compatible version through Raspberry Pi. In the meantime, though, will be exploring the Axoloti a bit more.
Honestly, dead simple: been pointing TouchOSC at raspberrypi.local (or another name for the given Pi) using the correct port, routing through Processing, PureData, or ChucK. Some Sonic Pi users have been using a simple command line which routes things directly, so you don’t even need Processing, Pure Data, or ChucK.
(This is mostly on a Raspberry Pi 3, so it already has WiFi, but it should work with WiFi dongles.)
To me, a really fun thing to do is simply to use TouchOSC’s accelerometer support to send three floats to some sound-producing software on the Pi. Very satisfying.
Well… Robin Newman might help. For instance:

Yay!
Cool! Lots of resources. Which might be part of the issue.
One suggestion would be to join the Google Group for Sonic Pi.

Sure, it’s specifically about SPi, but as it’s music software which is part of the base Raspbian distro (and Ubuntu MATE), it’s a good starting point.
If you have specific projects, it shouldn’t be hard to find people who can help. Feel free to DM me.
Nice! Raspbian is a very good way to get started with both, at any age. My strong suggestion is to explore what’s already there, trying some demos and such. While you do that, you could make notes as to ideas you have for future projects. Python is the core of the whole Raspberry Pi project (and a reason behind its name), so there’s great support for Python which is a rather useful language to learn, as you get into coding. My own coding skills are pretty low, but it’s been fun doing some projects with the Pi’s GPIO ports, including robots and such.
Again, Sonic Pi can provide you with a solid base. As a pedagogue, been particularly pleased with the tutorial. Instead of telling you what to do, it encourages you to learn through experimentation. It’s a whole new way to think about music, for most people, but it works really well.
Then, and to go back to your previous question, you can explore things like Pure Data, ChucK, and Processing. Maybe in that order. They all work well on Raspberry Pi, in my experience, and they all accept OSC, which is how the connection with iOS through TouchOSC makes the most sense.
For Pd, just discovered Automatonism which simplifies things a lot by using the modular synth model. Been having a blast with it and it’s really got me to understand Pd in a new way. (In case you don’t know, Pure Data is the Free Software environment built by the guy behind Max, and it’s a very powerful Max-like system.)
ChucK is a rather peculiar thing. It’s the core technology behind Smule’s apps and it’s been used by the two main “Laptop Orchestras” (there’s another one using Pd). Worth investigating, including with non-standard HID like gamepads and dancemats.
Processing isn’t music-focused at all, but there are some libraries to play with sound. Not all of them work on Raspbian, but you can learn a lot through the overall system.
Anyhoo… Much of this isn’t iOS-related. So feel free to contact me off-thread.
oops...
For some reason SuperCollider never gets the same love that PD and Chuck get, but it's a pretty amazing music programming environment. Sonic Pi uses it to generate sound, though SuperCollider more powerful used by itself imho.
For anyone interested in DSP generally - Faust is amazing.
