It should accept and interpret MIDI sequences (or a MIDI file), then drive solenoids which will "ping" against Xylophone keys. The solenoids should be driven by MOSFET drivers connected to the I/O pins of a microcontroller such as an Arduino or Raspberry Pi Pico. and got quite a detailed response. You should find this helpful. That sounds quite interesting!   phil99 said   An untested way to read from the solenoids. If it works change the Print line to print to a file. Thank you very much! I will try that out at the next opportunity! Frank
