This repository contains a minimal code to play on your computer keyboard like if it was a piano, an instrument that I call the Pianoputer (yeah I am not very good at names).

To play you first need to install Python, and the Python libraries Numpy, Scipy and Pygame. Agreed, the dependencies are a little heavy.

Then you just unzip everything in a folder and run this line:

python pianoputer.py

Note that the keyboard configuration (stored in the file typewriter.kb) is for AZERTY french keyboards. You can change the configuration so that it matches your keyboard. An easy way to do this is to run

python make_kb_file.py

This will let you press the keys in the order that you want, and create a new keyboard configuration file (just follow the instructions).

Enjoy !
