The Knob - Micro USB Media Controller (Digispark Arduino)

Description

**1 Knob, 6 Functions.** This Tiny, *Super Cheap* Media Controller Works With All Devices That Supports Usb Media Controls - Computers, Tablets, Phones Etc. Tested So Far With Windows 10 & Android 6. A Single Knob Performs The Following: * Play - *Press Knob* * Pause - *Press Knob Again* * Volume Up - *Turn Knob Right* * Volume Down - *Turn Knob Left* * Previous Track - *Press And Turn Knob Left* * Next Track - *Press And Turn Knob Right* **You Can Also Replace The Actions Of The Knob With Pretty Much Any Key Press You Want**. See *Changing Functions* Further Down This Page. There Are Several One-Knob Media Controllers Out There, But I'Ve Found No Version That Allows You To Change Tracks Without Dedicated Buttons (Like My Larger [Arduino Pro Micro-Based Media Controller](Https://Www.Thingiverse.Com/Thing:2967216) Has). And None So Cheap And Easy To Build. The Only Components Needed Are A **Digispark (Micro Usb Version)** Arduino Microcontroller And A **Ky-040** Rotary Encoder, Which Can Be Had For About **1€ Each** On Ebay/Ali. A Few Wires To Solder And That'S It - Hardware Is Done! I'M Also Including The Arduino Source I Wrote Which Includes (Or Links To) Pinouts, Libraries , Instructions And Pretty Much Everything You Need In Order To Program The Controller. I Made Several Different Knobs That You Can Choose From. The Encoder Has A Standard D-Shaped 6Mm Shaft So There Are A Multitude To Choose From If You Want To Buy Or Get One From Elsewhere. ***Update 2018-07-03*** Pinout Diagram Added. Software Updated To Version 2.0, Courtesy Of [Iamorion, Aka James Tanner](Https://Www.Thingiverse.Com/Iamorion). Basically Rewritten From Scratch - Fixes A Problem When Changing Direction, Includes Debugging Mode And Opens The Possibility For Much More Advanced Functions. Settings Are Now All In A Separate *Settings.H* File. All Code Can Be Found In *The_Knob_Arduino_Code_V2.0.Zip*. See The Comments Section For Even More Versions With Added Functionality From Iamorion (Triple-Click, Anyone?).
