Drooper

Drooper is going to be a device that has a drum machine and a looper, that you can make music with. We will use Raspberry pi as our microcontroller. It will take input from various sensors, such as knobs and force sensitive resistors. These sensors will control volume and pan, audio effects, control digital interface on DLC screen. It will be possible to record audio as well. The device will detect the BPM (beats per minute) of the first recorded clip so it can clip all audio clips with great detail. When it comes to music, precision is very important regarding timing.

How the device will look

These instructions will get you a copy of the project up and running on your local machine for development and testing purposes. See deployment for notes on how to deploy the project on a live system.

Prerequisites

You will need to install : https://github.com/adafruit/Adafruit_Python_MCP3008 libav-tools is neccesary to be able to use pydub on raspbian It is neccesary to install pyaudio correctly.

sudo pip install adafruit-mcp3008
sudo pip install pydub
sudo pip install pyaudio
sudo apt-get install libav-tools

Setup USB sound driver

type in sudo nano /usr/share/alsa/alsa.conf , scroll down and find these lines

defaults.ctl.card 0
defaults.pcm.card 0

and change them into

defaults.ctl.card 1
defaults.pcm.card 1

Then type in sudo nano ~/.asoundrc and change it so it reads

pcm.!default {
    type hw
    card 1
}

ctl.!default {
    type hw
    card 1
}

Installing

A step by step series of examples that tell you have to get a development env running

Say what the step will be

Give the example

And repeat

until finished

End with an example of getting some data out of the system or using it for a little demo

Running the tests

Explain how to run the automated tests for this system

Break down into end to end tests

Explain what these tests test and why

Give an example

And coding style tests

Explain what these tests test and why

Give an example
