One of the reasons I originally got into electronics, coding and all things open source was for the purposes of music tech projects. Now that it's been a few years I feel like I finally have the skills to successfully work on my dream project from that time: a robot xylophone.
Are there a million other robot xylophone projects? Totally. But I still really want to build my own version using a Raspberry Pi, MIDI, arcade buttons and 3D printing.
