Software

The Note Player

Originally created in 2021 as a proof of concept, the note player uses oscillation to generate tones. This player plays Mary Had a Little Lamb. The player incorporated a tick system to individually set the volume of each tick. The result was the ability to shape the sound but was primarily to add a fade out effect. Latter it was discovered that the tick system created a cracking sound and was replaced with linear ramps. Other features include blank notes and sustain. The player was given a total recode in 2022.
