## Don't get sad, Make something!

Lady Ada came up with this project when one of her favorite sites was taken down ([http://daftpunkonsole.com/](http://daftpunkonsole.com/)), so she made her version using Adafruit&nbsp;breakout boards.

In this project, the Trellis triggers samples on an Adafruit Audio FX soundboard.&nbsp;The Pro Trinket interfaces between the two over serial and i2c and ties the samples to the buttons.

## All-In-One Soundboard

It's a really slick way to make a compact, all-in-one sound board. This version of the Audio FX&nbsp;Soundboard features a built in amp so you can wire speakers up to terminals or directly on the board.

Whenever a Trellis key is pressed, there's a loop in the arduino sketch that listens for button presses and plays back a sample from a list.

## Software

## Installing Arduino

You'll need to customize some settings in the&nbsp;Arduino IDE to get configured to compile code onto the Adafruit Pro Trinket. &nbsp;Be sure to check out the [Introduction to Pro Trinket](../../../../introducting-pro-trinket)&nbsp;guide for setting that up.

[Download Arduino IDE](https://learn.adafruit.com/introducing-pro-trinket/setting-up-arduino-ide)
## Library Dependencies&nbsp;

The following libraries are needed to compile&nbsp;the arduino sketch.

- Wire
- [Adafruit Trellis](https://github.com/adafruit/Adafruit_Trellis_Library/archive/master.zip)
- SoftwareSerial
- [Adafruit Soundboard](https://github.com/adafruit/Adafruit_Soundboard_library/archive/master.zip)

## Uploading Sketch

With the Adafruit Arduino IDE and libraries installed, create&nbsp;a new sketch. Paste the desired code into the text editor. Select **Pro Trinket** from Tools \> Board. Then **USBtinyISP** from Tool \> Programmmer. Proceede by pluging a&nbsp;micro USB cable from your computer to the Pro Trinket. Watch for the red LED to start blinking and click upload to compile&nbsp;the sketch onto the Pro Trinket. If everything is good, Arduino will prompt with you a successful message in the console window.

## Customizing&nbsp;Tracks

You'll most likely want to change out the audio samples in this project. Look for the line where it lists out&nbsp;**char PadToTrack[numKeys][12].** The track file names are listed here. These should have the same names of&nbsp;the audio files on the Audio FX soundboard. [See this guide for file naming conventions](https://learn.adafruit.com/adafruit-audio-fx-sound-board/triggering-audio).

The code is [in this GitHub repo](https://github.com/adafruit/Adafruit_Learning_System_Guides/tree/TheKitty-patch-91/Portable_Trellis_Soundboard). If you find there are issues, you can use the GitHub Pull Request to suggest a fix.

# Portable Trellis Sound Board

## 3D Printing

## Enclosure

This is&nbsp;a four piece enclosure that prints with no support material.&nbsp;The two breakout boards are secured with machine screws to the standoffs on bottom cover.&nbsp;The two speakers are mounted on the side of the enclosure and held in place with nuts.&nbsp;The Trellis PCB snaps onto a tray and placed on top of the enclosure - There's an inner lip that keeps the tray in place.&nbsp;The top and bottom covers are secured to the frame with machine screws.

![](https://cdn-learn.adafruit.com/assets/assets/000/024/146/medium800/3d_printing_cad-enclosure.png?1427731728)

## CAD customization

The original solids are available in the 123DX file. You can modify the parts to fit your parts. If the tolerances are too tight or loose, you can easily adjust the parts by modifying the faces using 123D Design.

![](https://cdn-learn.adafruit.com/assets/assets/000/024/145/medium800/3d_printing_3d-parts-sm.jpg?1427731395)

## Filaments & Materials

The parts are optimized to print with PLA filament, but it should work with other&nbsp;thermal plastics. The parts can print with out any support material.

[Download on Thingiverse](http://www.thingiverse.com/thing:749555)
## Slice settings

We recommend using the basic slice settings below. The parts are orientation to print 'as-is' so the parts should be centered on the&nbsp;build plate. For best quality, try printing part by part as opposed to a one print full set.

## Finishing Parts

The enclosure frame tends to print with a bit of extra bits in the speaker cut outs. Remarkably, the bridge and standoffs print just fine without any support material.

You can remove the stringy bits using flush snips. Optionally smooth out the edges with a filing tool.

## Prep Trellis LEDs

Let's start off by adding LEDs to the Trellis PCB. Secure the PCB to a Panavise Jr.&nbsp;Insert the first LED into one of the spots with the longer leg going into the positive+ through hole. Flip the board over and bend the terminals so the LED stays in place.

## Solder LEDs

Double check the polarities for each LED before soldering. Snip off the leads from the LED when you're complete soldering. Try to do one LED at a time. You'll need to do this for all 16 buttons.

![3d_printing_inset_leds_top.jpg](https://cdn-learn.adafruit.com/assets/assets/000/024/155/medium640/3d_printing_inset_leds_top.jpg?1427735005)

## Wire Trellis Ground to Audio FX soundboard

We need to solder the **ground** wire from the Trellis PCB to one of the **GND** pins on the Audio FX sound board.

![](https://cdn-learn.adafruit.com/assets/assets/000/024/206/medium800/3d_printing_protrinket-sfx-wired.jpg?1427739811)

## Wire Audio FX soundboard to Pro Trinket

Next up we need to&nbsp;connect the Audio FX soundboard to the Pro Trinket. Measure and cut four pieces of 30AWG wires to about 5cm in length. Strip and tin each wire. You'll need to connect the following pins&nbsp;together.

- **ACT** to **A1**
- **RX** to **&nbsp;#6**
- **TX** to **&nbsp;#5**
- **RST** to **#4**

## Wire Speakers to Audio FX soundboard

Tin the negative and positive **L/R** pads on the FX sound board. Cut the wires short on both speakers so they're about 10cm in length. Strip the wires and tin them with solder. Solder the speaker wires to the positive **L/R** pads on the audio fx soundboard.

![3d_printing_sfx-tin-speakers.jpg](https://cdn-learn.adafruit.com/assets/assets/000/024/209/medium640/3d_printing_sfx-tin-speakers.jpg?1427740059)

![](https://cdn-learn.adafruit.com/assets/assets/000/024/212/medium800/3d_printing_circuit-final.jpg?1427740244)

## Final Circuit

Yay, you&nbsp;circuit is now complete! Try to keep the wiring organized, so avoid getting tangled while moving things around. Ideally you wanna have the Pro Trinket next to the Audio FX&nbsp;soundboard. So try keeping the wiring separate from each other.&nbsp;

Plug in the JST cable from the 1200mAh lipo battery and see if it all&nbsp;powers on.&nbsp;If it doesn't, double check your wiring. If everything&nbsp;powers up, lets move onto mounting the circuit to&nbsp;the&nbsp;enclosure.&nbsp;

# Portable Trellis Sound Board

## Assembly

![](https://cdn-learn.adafruit.com/assets/assets/000/024/215/medium800/3d_printing_screws-nuts.jpg?1427741895)

## Hardware

You're ganna need 16 #4-40 3/8 machine screws and 4 (or 8) hex nuts. Also, a screw driver.

## Install Speakers

Line up the mounting holes on the side of the enclosure with the ones on the speakers. Insert the speaker into the frame and position it so it’s lined up with the speaker cut out. Insert four #4-40 machine screws into the mounting holes on the frame.

![3d_printing_speakers-position.jpg](https://cdn-learn.adafruit.com/assets/assets/000/024/216/medium640/3d_printing_speakers-position.jpg?1427741994)

![3d_printing_speakers-holes.jpg](https://cdn-learn.adafruit.com/assets/assets/000/024/217/medium640/3d_printing_speakers-holes.jpg?1427742023)

![3d_printing_case-speakers-screw.jpg](https://cdn-learn.adafruit.com/assets/assets/000/024/218/medium640/3d_printing_case-speakers-screw.jpg?1427742047)

![3d_printing_case-speakers-screws-inserted.jpg](https://cdn-learn.adafruit.com/assets/assets/000/024/219/medium640/3d_printing_case-speakers-screws-inserted.jpg?1427742075)

## Mount Speakers to&nbsp;Enclosure

Place a hex nut into the screw and hold it in place while you&nbsp;fasten the screw until it's tight.&nbsp;You can do this to only&nbsp;two screws or all four - it's pretty secure with just two.

![3d_printing_speaker-install.jpg](https://cdn-learn.adafruit.com/assets/assets/000/024/222/medium640/3d_printing_speaker-install.jpg?1427742366)

![3d_printing_speaker-nut.jpg](https://cdn-learn.adafruit.com/assets/assets/000/024/223/medium640/3d_printing_speaker-nut.jpg?1427742388)

## Thread Standoffs

You'll want to&nbsp;fasten #4-40 machine screws into the standoffs on the bottom cover. This will actually thread the threads and open up holes to make it easier to fasten later.&nbsp;

![3d_printing_cover-screws-head.jpg](https://cdn-learn.adafruit.com/assets/assets/000/024/224/medium640/3d_printing_cover-screws-head.jpg?1427742652)

![3d_printing_cover-screws-2.jpg](https://cdn-learn.adafruit.com/assets/assets/000/024/225/medium640/3d_printing_cover-screws-2.jpg?1427742677)

![](https://cdn-learn.adafruit.com/assets/assets/000/024/226/medium800/3d_printing_protrinket-fastened.jpg?1427742890)

## Mount Pro Trinket

You'll want to loosen the two mounting holes on the Pro Trinket (the ones in front, close to the microUSB connector). I used #4-40 falt phillips screws (the sharp pointy kind) to do this. Fasten the screw&nbsp;slowly to avoid&nbsp;breaking the PCB.

Place the Pro Trinket onto the bottom cover and match up the standoffs. Hold the PCB in place while you fasten two #4-40 screws into the bottom cover.&nbsp;

![](https://cdn-learn.adafruit.com/assets/assets/000/024/227/medium800/3d_printing_protrinket-sfx-fastened.jpg?1427743110)

## Mount Audio FX soundboard

The mounting holes on the audio FX soundboard PCB is a bit more open, but I recommend making the threads, so fasten machine screws into the two mounting holes up front and than take them out.

Place the Audio FX soundboard ontop of the standsoffs on the bottom cover. Insert the two #4-40 screws and fasten the PCB to the bottom cover.

![](https://cdn-learn.adafruit.com/assets/assets/000/024/228/medium800/3d_printing_trellis-through-encslorure.jpg?1427743664)

## Insert Trellis PCB through Enclosure

Place the Trellis through the bottom of the enclosure. The bottom has the port cut outs.

![](https://cdn-learn.adafruit.com/assets/assets/000/024/243/medium800thumb/3d_printing_close-bottom.jpg?1448317347)

## Close&nbsp;bottom cover

Place the bottom cover over the enclosure frame. Line up the microUSB connectors with the cut outs on the enclosure.&nbsp;

![](https://cdn-learn.adafruit.com/assets/assets/000/024/229/medium800/3d_printing_enclosure-screw-bottom.jpg?1427743832)

## Secure bottom cover

Hold the bottom cover in place. Insert and fasten four #4-40 3/8 flat phillips machine screws into the corner mounting holes on the bottom cover.

## Install Slide Switch

Unsolder the two wires on the slide switch from the Pro Trinket Lipo backpack add-on. Insert the switch into the cut out on the side of the enclosure with the wires going in first. Press the slide switch into the cut out. Apply a bit of adhesive to perminently mount&nbsp;it in place. Don't forget to solder the wires from the slide switch back onto the Pro Trinket lipo backpack.

![3d_printing_switch-case-insert.jpg](https://cdn-learn.adafruit.com/assets/assets/000/024/230/medium640/3d_printing_switch-case-insert.jpg?1427744008)

![3d_printing_switch-case-installed.jpg](https://cdn-learn.adafruit.com/assets/assets/000/024/231/medium640/3d_printing_switch-case-installed.jpg?1427744041)

![](https://cdn-learn.adafruit.com/assets/assets/000/024/237/medium800/3d_printing_plugin-power.jpg?1427744671)

## Plug in Power&nbsp;

At this point you'll want to connect the JST cable from the 1200mAh lipo battery to the Pro Trinket lipo backpack. Place the lipo battery into the enclosure.

## Install Trellis

Check the edges of the PCB for any sharp bits. Smooth them out using a filing tool. Place the Trellis PCB onto the tray and press it down to snap it in place.

Lay the tray on top over the enclosure frame and press it down until it rests on the inner lip.
