The most advanced of its kind on Scratch: Piano Player! Info | Name: @AMarlar | Date Shared: 2024/06/28 | What it is: This is a music-making project where you can create your own songs or play others'! | Inspiration: I have been trying for years to program a music-making project; this is my best attempt. Please comment telling me how you rate this project from ⭐ to ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ ( <-- you can copy and paste the emojis from here) This project is mobile-friendly. -----------------------------Instructions---------------------------- -Click anywhere above the piano to place notes. To know which notes are which, you can press keys on the piano. -Click and drag your mouse up to make a note longer, and down to make it shorter. -Make a note length 0 to delete it. (Drag the top of it down below the bottom until it disappears, then let go) -Use W and S or the up and down arrow keys to scroll through your song, or just hover your mouse/ finger towards the top and bottom of the notes section. -You can change your song's name, tempo, and instruments using the boxes at the top of the screen. -Save and load songs, create a new song, view a preset song, and toggle brightness using the buttons at the bottom. -----------------------------------Notes------------------------------ -Have you seen all of those cool Youtube videos with colorful line notes and music? This is where you can do it yourself. -It took less than one week to make the initial project from start to finish; edits have been made throughout the time it has been shared. -Take a look in the Presets (using the music note button) for songs already made for you to play. -If you have any problems, comment describing the issue. I will respond! -Some Piano Jokes: -You can tuna piano, but you can't piano tuna! -I keep losing my keys, so remind me not to buy a piano. -I keep trying to play the piano, but it keeps putting a damper on things. (The damper is what stops a note on a piano when you stop pressing the key) -Did you hear about the piano that was a pirate captain? It sailed a pirate ship on the high C's! -------------------------------Credits-------------------------------- -Thanks to @griffpatch for the Save Code tutorial! -Thanks to the Scratch extension library for the Music extension. -All Preset songs credit their creators in the name. -Thanks to the church's pastor who let me play notes on the piano for 5 minutes straight one afternoon. -Everything else was made by . -----------------------------Change Log-------------------------- 2024/06/28: Original Release: Basic functionality (edit songs, play songs, save & load songs) 2024/12/02: v1.1: Added information boxes to describe buttons the mouse is hovering over. 2025/06/19: v1.5: Added real piano notes from my local church's 100+ year-old piano! Turn the switch at the bottom to "Piano: Real" to use it. (It overrides the instrument selection at the top of the screen) ----------------------------------Tags--------------------------------
