automated music maker project?

[martialdc]

I have a project which is the "Automated Music-Maker".

This project is to play instrument using VB.

Like for example a guitar, I have to choose the chords I want to play and using VB will play the type of chords I selected.

Can anybody help me or give an idea?

I know this is a hard project that's why I am asking your help. please! Please! Please!

Below is a sample code I had in my code bank for some time now...
It shouws how to CREATE wav files from SCRATCH using only visual basic...

You simply enter the frequency of the sound and it's duration then click make...
It will create the wave file (plus shows you the HEX coding for it so you can save it later on)...plus it plays it in VB...

No extra ActiveX are needed for this... so enjoy...
Not what you're looking for, but with some tweaking it can get you there....

Are you trying to simulate the guitar sounds as well or just make sounds? If just sounds maybe have a look at the Beep API...

My question is...will that be loud enough?
The beep api plays via the system speaker....and from the last time I checked, that wasn't loud enough...
My guess is he's trying to make something like FruityLoops, Reason or CakeWalk.....
But then again I could be wrong....

Maybe, maybe not...
