I want to recreate the carolling christmas bells with a xylophone. To do this, I need the sequence of the bells. I don't care about the frequencies — I just want to know when to strike which tone element.
Reading it from the musical notes is too tedious for me.

In principle, I need a 12-channel logic analyzer to record the sound sequences. I'm just not sure how I can achieve that with an Picomite.

I would have 12 inputs there, but I can't trigger an interrupt for each of them. I could connect each of the 12 inputs to an additional input via diodes and trigger an interrupt there. ...or should I just poll the inputs?

Can I read in all the pins at once?
