Tuning

Frequencies for equal-tempered scale. The pitches the frequencies of the twelve notes between note A, and note A one octave up from it. Higher pitched notes have larger frequency steps between them, but each step makes an equal change to difference in pitch (one semitone) that we perceive. The piano keyboard is one of the classic ways of viewing the Chromatic scale. Also, the whole pattern of note names repeats after every seven white notes.

There are two main properties of a regular vibration, the amplitude and the frequency, which affect the way it sounds. Amplitude is the size of the vibration, and this determines how loud the sound is. We have already seen that larger vibrations make a louder sound. It is also the origin of the word amplifier, a device which increases the amplitude of a waveform. Frequency is the speed of the vibration, and this determines the pitch of the sound. It is only useful or meaningful for musical sounds, where there is a strongly regular waveform.

Arduino

This simple keyboard how to use the to generate different pitches depending on which button is pressed. A potentiometer is a simple mechanical device that provides a varying amount of resistance when its shaft is turned. By passing voltage through a potentiometer and into an analog input on your board, it is possible to measure the amount of resistance produced by a potentiometer as an analog value. Re-maps a number from one range to another. That is, a value of from Low would get mapped to Low, a value of from High to High. Range Frequency Note Low => Note High. Read the state of the pushbutton value, Low a frequency of High.
