  • That's pretty sweet. Be careful, though. That song is copyrighted and apparently the holder is somewhat litigious.

  • I think it's ubuntu linux...

  • PROM's (Programmable Read Only Memories) were used in very old drum machines/Arpeiggators. This is really very much like what he is doing with the Atmel/AVR hardware(Guessing as he is not telling the brand). If you google for Viscount pb187818a.jpg, on the first picture coming up you will see a circuit board of such electronics. The 2 bright green chips are PROMs.

  • @francisroan You can choose any microcontrollers you want. You juste have to know in what programming languages you re going to write your code and the associated compiler. Then select the good functions who are expected to generate song at a certain frequency

  • @scorpion8588 Every processor with spare I/O pins can generate sound. It's just a duty cycle with a certain frequency.

  • wow ur genius dude..

  • nice work..........

  • Can all microcontrollers generate waves or just the one used in this video?

    I just bought a solderless breadboard and can only send DC signals.

  • which micro controller did you choose???????????
