Piano HAT for 40-Pin Raspberry Pi
Manufactured By:PIMORONI
Part Number:PIM095
Unlock your inner Mozart with Piano HAT, a mini musical companion for your Raspberry Pi!
Piano HAT is inspired by Zachary Igielman's PiPiano and made with his blessing. We've taken his fabulous idea for a dinky piano add-on for the Raspberry Pi, made it touch-sensitive and added barrels of our trademark Pimoroni polish. Play music in Python, control software synths on your Pi, and take control of hardware synthesizers!
Michael Horne said "The Piano HAT is, as far as electronics goes, a work of art. It looks slick, feels slick and, with the software library included, acts slick."
The MagPi said Piano HAT was "a great way to unleash your ivory-tinkling tendencies" and "a board for musical adventures".
