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/), so she made her version using Adafruit breakout boards.
In this project, the Trellis triggers samples on an Adafruit Audio FX soundboard. 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 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.
