Bare Conductive
- This is a multifunction board that combines.
- Sound file playing (MP3 or MIDI)
- Capacitive Sensors
- On board processor (Leonardo eqv of an Arduino).
- Can be power by LIPO battery or external regulated 5v supply.

| Sound creation |
- Flute, Piano, Guitar
- Drum
- 3.5mm and 1/4in stereo jack sockets
- Octave shifter
- Key shifter: C, G, D and F majors
- MIDI synthesis.
- Planxtone Code V06c

| Rear of planxtone. The strips of PCB are wired back to he capacitive inputs on the Bare Conductive processor board. After some prior experiment it was found running the connecting wires close together via the square conduit did not cause any "cross-talk". |
 |
| Processor plus function selection switches and wiring.The bottom switch uses a resistive ladder network via the A0 analogue pin. The other two rotary switches are wired to pins 4,5,6 and 7 giving 00, 01, 10, 11 binary selections. |
 |
| Proximity sensors wired in. |
 |
Controls Wired In
Note the use of one rotary switches usung a resitive ladder and two using a simple binary output. |
