I designed a PCB MIDI saxophone

The Circuit Sax is a saxophone MIDI controller. It lets you play any software instrument you’d like using saxophone fingerings, allowing you to practice without disturbing others, create music in any DAW, and even perform with it. It’s designed to feel as close to a regular saxophone as possible so that it won’t feel unfamiliar to the player.

In plain words

The Circuit Sax is a PCB-based MIDI controller designed for saxophone players. It uses traditional saxophone fingerings to trigger software instruments in any DAW, enabling silent practice and performance without a physical instrument. The controller mimics a real saxophone's feel and layout, making it intuitive for experienced players to learn and use while creating music across different genres and settings.

Eigendrum - Draw any shape and hear what it sounds like as a drum▲243
Hi HN, I built Eigendrum, a web tool that solves the 2D wave equation for arbitrary shapes so you can hear what they sound like as drums. How it works: * Solves -∇²u = λu using finite element analysis (Kφ = λMφ) on a triangle mesh. * Validated to <0.1% error against closed-form solutions for circles (Bessel zeros) and rectangles. * Sound model factors in strike location, Rayleigh damping, and mallet width. * Includes Kac drums I & II to demonstrate identical sound spectra from different geometries. * No frameworks, build steps, or dependencies. Repo and tests:…
