One of my favorite classes in college was a\u00a0micro-controller\u00a0course where we had to build an alarm-clock radio. \u00a0For extra credit, I wrote a very simple “music” module to allow students to write songs to use as alarms (instead of a boring tone or siren.) \u00a0At the time I wondered if there was a way to play real midis or multiple frequencies at once to make more advanced songs. \u00a0Sadly, I was a busy student and didn’t have time to look into it.<\/p>\n
Now, far too late for class, I’ve come across a project using wavetable synthesis<\/a> which would have been an excellent jump point for me to implement a more advanced music module. \u00a0I’ll have to play around with this concept and see if I can’t slip a new module to my old professor.<\/p>\n
