How to make a RockBand Guitar playing Robot!

Step 15: See it work

The video shows the circuit playing the GREEN NOTE ONLY after calibration. I selected a segment of song that shows the circuit playing the "whammy" note as well, it's pretty cool. The only problem is that I made the video with a digital camera because I don't have a real video camera. The more going on the less the camera would focus so we only get to watch the one circuit in action in the video. Not to worrie you will have yours running in no time :P When I get a real video camera I'll make a high quality video of the robot playing all of the notes.

I hope you enjoy, and happy instructifying!

Doesn't really look like it works very well :-/

[kendallickes]

what makes you say that? it worked perfectly!

It missed quite a lot of notes, and was pretty slow, nice work though!

except it didn't miss a single note and it looks slow because I taped it with a digital camera that came over on the mayflower, not a real camcorder. In the video the system is only playing the green key because its a simple 1 circuit version, you have to build 3-5 to make it play all of the notes depending on the difficulty lvl. you would probably know that if you read the intro to the video or the content in the Instructable. thanks for the response and the opportunity to clear that up.

The pilgrims had very good cameras for their time period, now there ipods were truly appalling. 12ft tall and could only hold 15 songs.

Nicely done! I'd love to see an example of it running on expert mode with all 4 buttons. Very cool

hopefully you noticed that in the video it is only supposed to play the green key...
