Project Help and Ideas » Increasing Xylophone capabilities

I have completed my xylophone, it works great and it generates a lot of interest. I was wondering if it would be possible to use different input pins to trigger different tunes that can be selected by switches. Thanks

Hi Wilkinm,

That is certainly possible. If you went through the NerdKits Guide you already did the dipswitch arithmetic project. You can take the concepts you learned from that (taking input from switches), and based on the state of the switches you can play a different tune.
