  • Ask HN: Does anyone use a Raspberry Pi as your main computer?

    Not as my main computer, but as my digital piano sidekick, a USB output from the piano goes to my Raspberry Pi which runs Pianoteq (makes the piano sound like a $100k piano). Optionally, the Pi lights up some addressable LEDs coinciding with keys.

    A nice "gateway drug" is an addressable (programmable) LED strip. Hook it up to a Raspberry Pi or Arduino and have at it! I bought cheap motion sensors and will be installing a strip along the inside of a staircase to light up when I approach it.

    https://github.com/whyboris/Arduino-LED (see "stairs.ino")

    Another project of mine is having the LEDs light up as I play piano:

    Unsure where I'll go after I finish these projects, but LEDs are so much fun!

    A fun tech-related project is hooking up an addressable LED strip to a digital piano and making the strip respond to your key presses on a Raspberry Pi.

    My repository for this (code finished, just need to add photos and add a write up about how to use):

    https://github.com/whyboris/Digital-Piano-LED

    I added a feature that the left and middle pedal buttons navigate through sheet music (PDF left/right button). And I'm also running Pianoteq which makes any (even dinky) digital piano sound like a $100k grand piano (or any piano you pick for that matter) https://www.modartt.com/pianoteq

  • software for SK6812 RGBW led's
    1 project | /r/led | 24 Aug 2022
    I have bought 2 rolls of LEDs a power supply and a raspberry pi zero w. I have soldered everything together and I have put de led data input on gpio pin 18 on my raspberry but I can't find any software to run my LEDs I have 2 meters and 288 LEDs running on 5v. If someone could find/make/help me make software to control the LEDs I would appreciate it very much. I am not someone who can code so I cannot write it myself and I also tried this : https://jackw01.github.io/led-control/
  • Have a ton of this RGB LED Rope but I’m unsure how to power and control it. Any help would be much appreciated.

    The SK6812B is also called a "neopixel". Every LED on the strip is individually controllable. I use projects like https://github.com/cpldcpu/light_ws2812 and https://github.com/jackw01/led-control/ to control them.
