Pisound – Raspberry Pi Sound Card & MIDI Interface

 

Pisound is an ultra-low latency high-quality sound card and MIDI interface specially designed for Raspberry Pi pocket computers.

 

 

Meet Pisound!

Pisound is an ultra-low latency high-quality sound card and MIDI interface specially designed for Raspberry Pi pocket computers.

Equipped with 192kHz 24-bit Stereo Input and Output driven by the legendary Burr-Brown chips, DIN-5 MIDI Input and Output ports, user-customizable button and bundled software tools, this little Raspberry Pi HAT will bring your audio projects to a whole new level!

 

Make things!

Using Pisound you can turn your Raspberry Pi into a music instrument or effect, audiophile network player, portable recording studio, internet radio station or anything you can think of as long as it's audio related!

Pisound works great with Patchbox OS, Raspbian, ArchLinux, Pixel, Ubuntu Mate, Audacity, Pure Data, Sonic Pi, SuperCollider, Volumio and any other Linux software!

 

The Button

When we were designing Pisound one of the main goals was to empower everyone to use Pisound and Raspberry Pi in headless mode - without an external monitor, keyboard or mouse.

As it turns out, one button is all you need to achieve this and we call it The Button.

Its functionality can be customized according to your needs. By default using The Button you can open patches straight from a USB thumb drive, safely close them, shut down the Raspberry Pi and even launch “Pisound” Wi-Fi hotspot, so that you can connect to the device via SSH, VNC or send WiFi-MIDI messages directly to your Pi using smart phone or tablet.

Our favorite use-case for it - you can run your Pure Data patches, without any need to connect a display, keyboard or mouse, just by plugging in a USB drive containing “main.pd”, any optional MIDI controller / keyboard, click The Button once and Voilà!

* Triple-click WiFi hotspot works with Raspberry Pi models with WiFi integrated. Other versions require SoftAP capable USB WiFi adapter to be plugged in.

Compatible models are:

Raspberry Pi 4b
Raspberry Pi 41
Raspberry Pi 3
Raspberry Pi 3B+
Raspberry Pi 2 version 1.2
Raspberry Pi 2
Raspberry Pi 1 Model B+
Raspberry Pi 1 Model A+
