Arduino Music Box
11 January, 2016
Credit to David Mills http://webshed.org/wiki/AD9850_Arduino for the code to interface with the signal generator.
Here is a video to show what to expect from this project. I got a couple of the notes wrong in this video but they have been corrected in the code below.
Bill of Materials:
-1 Arduino
-1 LCD display (optional)
-1 AD9850 DDS signal generator
-1 pizzo electric buzzer
I will leave the LCD up to you, and just provide instructions on how to make some music with the AD9850 DDS and an Arduino.
Note the connections between the arduino and the AD9850 DDS signal generator. Feel free to change them if you need.
#define CLOCK 2 //pin connections for DDS
#define LOAD 3
#define DATA 7
#define RESET 8
Hook the pizzo buzzer to the square wave output and ground.
Now we need some notes, I referred to http://www.phy.mtu.edu/~suits/notefreqs.html to get a few.
To play a note you can use this function: note(G*10, 750); Place the desired note, the octave, then the length to play the note.
The octave scale is not linear.
Please note that I do not use real notes in the Waltz program, but it uses relative frequencies. The scale program does use real notes.
A*20 comes after G*10 however these will not be real musical notes.
To use real notes start with A*1, A*2, A*4, A*8, etc. If you are not worried about using real notes then just be sure that your are consistent relative the note you start on.
This code is a little rushed and could be cleaned up a lot and is just for reference. If you use it be sure to credit David Mills http://webshed.org/wiki/AD9850_Arduino for the part he wrote as well as me for the parts I wrote and don't claim the code as your own or try to prevent anyone else using it other than that do with it what you will.
Below is the code to play Waltz From Sleeping Beauty and the code to play all of the real musical notes.
You can also turn this into a musical instrument by adding buttons that play notes.
