Arduino Nano 12-Note Keyboard

This project builds on the Simple Arduino Music Keyboard but expands it to a full octave of chromatic notes. As there are more buttons this time, I've actually soldered this together onto a piece of stripboard and built in space to use an Arduino Nano as the controller. In Arduino Nano MIDI Keyboard I add MIDI out … Continue reading Arduino Nano 12-Note Keyboard →

Simple Arduino Music Keyboard

This project uses the Arduino tone() function to make a sound coupled with a set of eight buttons that act as a simple one octave music keyboard (with no accidentals). In Arduino Nano 12-Note Keyboard I extend this to 12 notes using an Arduino Nano and some stripboard. In Arduino Nano MIDI Keyboard I add MIDI out … Continue reading Simple Arduino Music Keyboard →

Arduino Note Generator

This project is a continuation of the Arduino Tone Generator but rather than create a continuous tone, this code chooses specific notes to play. In Simple Arduino Music Keyboard I use this principle to create a music keyboard. In Arduino Tone Step Sequencer I build a "step sequencer" to play Arduino tones. In Arduino MIDI Tone Module I … Continue reading Arduino Note Generator →

Arduino Tone Generator

This project uses an Arduino Uno and a potentiometer to create a variable-pitch tone. In Arduino Note Generator I update the project to play discrete notes. https://youtu.be/Azd64-3U5pI These are the key Arduino tutorials for the main concepts used in this project: Arduino Analog Input Arduino Tone Pitch Follower If you are new to Arduino, see the Getting … Continue reading Arduino Tone Generator →
