Numark PT01 Scratch Bluetooth Plate

I was drawn to the concept of the ScratchToys sound plate, yet found its price a bit too high for my liking, and availability had become quite scarce lately. As a result, I decided to create my own version of it. By building this project, you'll end up with a Bluetooth/SD Card/USB reader module integrated into your Numark PT01. My main goal was to enable the looper app on my smartphone to stream its audio directly to the PT01 without relying on a 3.5mm cable (#lookMomNoCables!). However, it also offers media player capabilities from an SD card or Bluetooth, allowing you to load beats onto an SD card and effectively turn your PT01 into a completely independent mobile scratch solution. The Line In connector still functions as intended since its input is routed through the BT module and can be selected as an input. I'm unsure about the USB port's functionality, but there's no reason why it shouldn't work as well.
