Mike, Sean – please drop us a line if you’re doing anything else with the Raspberry Pi. You can find a long and fantastically informative post about the build at Sean and Mike’s website there’s also a less wordy, more picture-y Imgur page on the project. If you’re in Lancaster, you’ll find Quaver in the food court at the Park City shopping mall. (And not just because of the artwork on the outside.) This is all part of Lancaster’s Keys for the City project, where pianos are decorated and left around the city for the public to play Quaver is the project’s stand-out this year. A score illustrating the musical feature of a continuous quaver rhythm from Beethovens Piano Sonata No An extract of continuing quavers in both the right. Most schools wont teach fractions until kids. Parse to handle file uploading and make it easy for us to produce a front-end on the web. Quaver Piano School provides piano lessons for students of all levels and ages, no matter if they have chosen music as a career or just want to play the piano for pleasure. While these note values are not difficult, younger students may get tripped up by the quaver being half a beat.ffmpeg to concatenate copies of the mp3 loop into a longer “song”.lame for encoding the SooperLooper’s wav output to mp3.I ended up just using echo to issue commands directly to /dev/ttyUSB0 node-serialport was initially used to control the display, however when compiling a custom kernel (more on that later) I could not get it to compile correctly.onoff to control LEDs and listen for button presses.The largest quaver shaped charm measures 3.4 cm. node-OSC sends commands to SooperLooper.

#Quaver piano full
I am full of ideas (for other people’s pianos – mine’s staying un-hacked).
I learned something new today: you can buy what are basically super-long guitar pickups (as seen in the picture above), which will work in pianos. With a Raspberry Pi, some magnetic pickups, and the open-source Sooper Looper (which I am downloading as soon as I have finished writing this post), Mike and Sean from MajorMega hacked an old upright piano into an instrument that can loop up to four separate tracks, and then upload your results to the internet to be listened to when you get home. Music hacks are my favourite hacks of all, and this one had me bounding around the office with the video below playing on my laptop so I could share it with people yesterday.
