To develop ‘sound with meaning,’ I wrote a sketch using the tone() function to replicate the ‘wah wah wah’ trombone sound. Sketch and video below.

 

void setup() {

  tone(7, 293.66, 1000);
  delay(1000);
  noTone(7);
  delay(500);
  tone(7,277.18,1000);
  delay(1000);
  noTone(7);
  delay(500);
  tone(7,261.63,1000);
  delay(1000);
  noTone(7);
  delay(500);
  tone(7,246.94,3000);
  delay(1500);
  noTone(7);
  delay(3000);
}

void loop() {


}

 

I had a 60 hertz hum with the original power supply I used the first time around. Switching to another power reduced the issue, but it’s still there.
