Build the panel before you build the hardware.
Serilab is a free tool for prototyping and testing audio & synth microcontrollers: Daisy Seed, Teensy, Axoloti, Raspberry Pi, anything that speaks serial. Connect over USB, drop in knobs, faders and LEDs, and drive your firmware live. No install, no account.
Daisy Seed · Teensy · Axoloti · Raspberry Pi · STM32 · … if it can print a line over serial, Serilab can drive it.
No SDK, no binary protocol. Emit plain text over serial and Serilab maps it to your controls. That's the whole integration.
hw.PrintLine("cutoff:%d", value); // → the Cutoff knob moves
// you receive the same format back when you move a widget
"cutoff:92\n" // split on the first ':' — done
Inputs you drive, outputs your board drives back.
Serilab is free.
No subscription, no account. The tool is free to use and runs entirely in the browser. If Serilab is useful to you, I'd love a coffee.
Just open it and get going.
No download, no account, no server. Plug in your controller, open Serilab and start building.
