Thumb Joystick

This is a joystick very similar to the analog joysticks on PS2 controllers. Directional movements are simply two potentiometers, one for each axis. Pots are 10k Ohm each. This joystick also has a select button that is actuated when the joystick is pressed down. This is the breakout board for the thumb joystick. Pins are broken out to a 0.1″ header and includes 4 mounting holes in the corners.

Mozzi

Mozzi synthesis wave packet double, selects 2 overlapping streams. In a wave packet is a short burst of localized wave action that travels as a unit. A wave packet can be synthesized from, an infinite set of component sinusoidal waves of different wavenumbers, with phases and amplitudes such that they interfere constructively only over a small region of space, and destructively elsewhere. Synthesizer and used a capacitor to store and slowly release voltage produced. He refined the design to remove the need to push a separate button one to produce the control voltage determining pitch and the other to trigger the envelope generator. The envelope generator became a standard feature of synthesizers.

Arduino

Joystick vertical potentiometer a fundamental, joystick horizontal potentiometer a bandwidth, potentiometer centre frequency and a select button that is actuated when the joystick is pressed down a random number.
