One day's work on Love2D for this piano


It has been just one week since I got my R36S.

In that week, I have been scribbling notes on a daily basis, figuring how to convert the handheld's input into a natural way to play piano notes. As I have a day job with a very long commute, I couldn't get to work on this project until the weekend.

Thankfully, Love2d is such a nice engine to code with. And I am pleasantly surprised by its low latency responsiveness! Absolutely essential for a musician to feel like they are playing a live musical instrument.

The final test was to place it in the hands of my daughters that have no piano training. To see if I could really make it easy for non-musicians to pick up and play the piano. They managed to play "Chopsticks" after practicing for about 10 minutes.
