Gary75 Posted March 4, 2018 Share Posted March 4, 2018 Not sure if anyone has posted this, but I found it very intriguing considering the price of a Raspberry Pi3. [video:youtube]H3FydUxX6BA Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ElmerJFudd Posted March 4, 2018 Share Posted March 4, 2018 That's pretty cool! I'd have to see it handle peddling though and a lot more piano-like piano playing than he's sharing here. Also, curious about how good you can get the latency. Yamaha CP88, Casio PX-560 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

BRW Posted March 6, 2018 Share Posted March 6, 2018 I've got a Pi 3 for gaming purposes, have it set up as a retro gaming machine (check out the RetroPie project, it's awesome!!) but have wondered about possible music applications - like, does generic USB MIDI work with it, for instance. Seems like too much effort for what you get... Granted the total $$$ is way more, but I think you're better off with an iPhone, some iOS app (like Korg's stuff) and a Korg plugKEY...

pjd Posted March 6, 2018 Share Posted March 6, 2018 Hi -- Yep, regular USB MIDI and audio interfaces work just fine with Linux on Raspberry Pi. Product-specific drivers are up to the manufacturer, of course, but class-compliant works pretty well. Here are links to some Linux and Raspberry Pi related articles: http://sandsoftwaresound.net/get-started-raspbian-jessie-rpi2/ http://sandsoftwaresound.net/get-started-alsa-jack/ http://sandsoftwaresound.net/rpi-soft-synth-get-started/ http://sandsoftwaresound.net/usb-audio-raspberry-pi/ http://sandsoftwaresound.net/qsynth-fluidsynth-raspberry-pi/ You can also use the Raspberry Pi to bridge USB-B to 5-pin MIDI. (That's "-B", the device side, not "-A", the host side.) http://sandsoftwaresound.net/send-midi-from-usb-b-to-5-pin/ Hope this helps -- pj Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
tfort Posted March 6, 2018 Share Posted March 6, 2018 There are a few threads about running Pianoteq on a Raspberry Pi over at the Pianoteq forum. Heres one with details about builds using a Raspberry Pi 3: http://www.forum-pianoteq.com/viewtopic.php?id=5351 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

EscapeRocks Posted March 6, 2018 Share Posted March 6, 2018 Anyone notice the CPU% hitting 57%-70+% when he struck a simple chord? Add a damper press now and then, and some "real" playing, and I see glitch city headed your way.

Theo Verelst Posted March 6, 2018 Share Posted March 6, 2018 I was one of the early adopters of the RPi and like it, though I doubt my second version will run much of pianotec. It's a linux multi core system with some caching and memory management, let's say less but in some way similar to PCs. On Linux, and IIRC from my PT try out version on the PC version of the OS, also for PT, you have the choice to run "jack" (start jackd up with the GUI of "qjackctl") instead of running bare Alsa or Oss. This can be preferable because it allows you to connect the outputs of PT to other programs, but also jack will tell you if it knows for sure that audio buffer computations have gone wrongs, and in a not so strick sense whether all buffer streaming and processing of audio in the various audio processes is still sample for sample correct. If it is worth while to use the very very cheap RPI instead of some old phone or pad will remain to be seen, but it allows a screen to be connected (some phones/pads do as well), and it is the equivalent of a "root"-ed phone/pad, so that gives some more choices, and there are hardware IO possibilities. Also, running sw (from Mathematica to pro Linux tools including every conceivable database and server on the planet time almost 100%) and installing without the Play store or Apple store is a lot more convenient and powerful. The older RPIs honestly do no run amazing amounts of plugins when compared to major PCs. Per $ and Watt, it may not be so bad with the latest versions. T.
