Here is a nice video to wind down the day. It’s [neorazz]‘s micRo playing the theme from Tetris. The micRo is a simple CNC kit sold by the team at Lumenlabs. For more servo music, peruse our CNC category.
[Thanks grayson]
boo, it’s off-key :(
but still neat
Some old scanners, I think HP, had a debug mode where they played Beethoven’s ode to joy. It was awesome. :-)
Ugh……
Good idea but sounds horribly mangled. My ears are bleeding.
:(
Not servo music. Stepper motor music.
This is one of my favorite CNC tunes :-) But it sounds like something went horribly wrong in the conversion process. Here is a rendition of the Tetris music with some less flat notes. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=h7KR44oUQbo
If you google ‘mid2cnc’, there is a script now that will convert polyphonic midi to a list of g-code vectors.
(Yes, and @vikki: there is a Mario theme!: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=sS8-vVE7iGI)
Yup, stepper music, not servo. I love stepper tones.
Yea, I have to agree, that was totally off key and thus really really hard to listen to
Korobeiniki > mario
Ow my ears
@MattieShoes, I had a scanner that did that. It also came with a little command line app that worked like QBasic’s play function, so it could play other tunes too :) I wish I could remember what make and model it was :(
oh god, oh no…. mercy! enough!! enough of the cnc music this one is *especially* bad…
Cool! Keep it up!
it was a quick rendition just to wear in the machine i didnt ever imagine it would be on hackaday (my lifelong goal this week btw).
so excuse the roughness or buy a micro and program it to do better =) and if you check you tube the mario test is on there also
Aaaaaaw!! my ears!
so it’s kind of a cnc music factory, eh?
everybody dance now
makes the cats in the alley at night seem melodious.
