Your way of explaining is great! I have installed it and its working! Could you please answer that since the leds are powered through usb port can we supply additional power supply to the board by also connecting a micro usb to the other port or powering it through the DC 5V port because it seems to flicker when used in high brightness. THANKYOU!

Got a question how do u line up the lights to the note if the lights are all of the place for 88 keys or does it have to be 144 led per m
@kmusical005 ай бұрын
@@eduardogonzajose50 I am using 144 led per meter in my yamaha dgx 670 and have placed it where the keys starts (simply using double tape of the rgb strip). As mentioned in the video, after installing the drivers, software itself calibrate the lights). You can also check in the link that he has provided in the description.

@kmusical004 ай бұрын
@@eduardogonzajose50 According to me, your lights are flickering because of low power supply. I personally have attached a mobile charging adapter(5v 3A) to the strip and changed the value of maximum current to 3A in Arduino controller software. Info. regarding it is published in the github link provided in the description. By the way, if you want photos of the setup you can mention your insta id if you are comfortable to do so.

piano keys -> 72 keys/m *2 -> 144 so 2 leds/key
@PianistOFlores Жыл бұрын
Hi, thank you for your tutorial, it helps a lot, I just have a question about how the led turns on. On your example multiple leds turns on and not only the led below the key. I thought it was because of smaller led strips but I have seen other videos using also 144 and only turning on the leds under key playing. The difference I have seen is that other videos use Raspberry, could be that the reason?
@klearliu Жыл бұрын
The LEDs power on through the connected micro USB, so there is no need for additional power For the demo I went to the software settings>LED Mode>Splash. That's the reason why there are additional lights surrounding the keys being played. By changing the LED mode, you can adjust it so it only lights up the key you play. Pi and Arduino (for this project's extent) does not matter. It's just a software that made the LED pattern like that.

@klearliu Жыл бұрын
LOL actually there is. One thing that comes to mind is to use: Piezoelectric sensors or contact microphones Attach the sensors to the analog input pins on the Arduino board. Each sensor or contact will represent a piano key and generate an analog voltage. Then we can light the matching LEDs.

I need help. I got mixed up because when I tried to upload on the Arduino IDE it says, "Failed uploading: no upload port provided." I tried looking up the error message and it just says that either my Arduino isn't plugged in or I haven't selected it on the top left corner of the Arduino IDE. I have done both of those things and I now have no idea what to do. Edit: Nevermind I got it :)

First try adjusting the Fade slider to halfway and see if it works. Also sometimes the program could crash so just close the connection and reupload the arduino code. It may help.

Hey is it possible to link my arduino due to my keyboard after I put the code on it. So that I dont have to use my computer all the time and use a 5V power supply
@klearliu8 ай бұрын
Once the code is uploaded onto the Arduino board using a computer, it can operate independently without needing to be connected. To replace the PC of the project, we will need an extension for the Arduino to recognize USB input. Sadly, the Arduino Due cannot independently handle computations for the lights and piano inputs. Directly interfacing a MIDI keyboard with an Arduino through USB can be complex because most MIDI keyboards use USB for communication and require a host device (meaning a computer) to interpret the MIDI signals. Arduinos, in terms of piano, need help to handle that. Some devices were researched prior to this build to make it without a computer: - MIDI Shield - USB Host Shield The program heavily relies on the computer to interpret the MIDI signals, leading to the discontinuation of the plan. Hopefully, mentioning something about using MIDI and USB Host shields in this reply will inspire a solution.
