hi guys...just dug out my arduino UNO. as i have a tremolo on breadboard
and thought it would be fun to try a tap for it......simple led to ldr setup...
after seeing this guys video on tap tempo. which looks cool
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ur_PEUH7snshowever he is using an arduino NG.
and i cant get the code to load on my UNO. (forgive my noobyness) but can his NG code go onto my UNO?
here is his code : it compiles ok, but wont actually load. thanks in advance..
/*
Tap Tempo
An experiment to detect tempo by tapping a button
Press a button connected to digital pin 12.
LED on pins 2-12 displays the beat pulse
LED on pin 13 shows the current button state (dim when button is pressed)
Digital Output <--------/\/ 220 ohm /\/----[LED]----> GND
(Digital 13 is wired up to the LED on the NG board. If you have an older
board, drop the standard LED between pin 13 and GND)
+------> +5 power
|
Digital 12 <-----+----[ switch ]-----/\/ 10k ohm /\/-----> GND

void setup()
{
pinMode( 12, INPUT ); /* tap button - press it to set the tempo */
pinMode( 13, OUTPUT ); /* button state display - not necessary */
for( int i=2 ; i<12 ; i++ ) {
pinMode( i, OUTPUT ); /* tempo display light - shows the current tempo */
}
}
int lastTapState = LOW; /* the last tap button state */
unsigned long currentTimer[2] = { 500, 500 }; /* array of most recent tap counts */
unsigned long timeoutTime = 0; /* this is when the timer will trigger next */
unsigned long indicatorTimeout; /* for our fancy "blink" tempo indicator */
void loop()
{
/* read the button on pin 12, and only pay attention to the
HIGH-LOW transition so that we only register when the
button is first pressed down */
int tapState = digitalRead( 12 );
if( tapState == LOW && tapState != lastTapState )
{
tap(); /* we got a HIGH-LOW transition, call our tap() function */

/* check for timer timeout */
if( millis() >= timeoutTime )

/* timeout happened. clock tick! */
indicatorTimeout = millis() + 30; /* this sets the time when LED 13 goes off */
/* and reschedule the timer to keep the pace */
rescheduleTimer();

timeout. The timeout is all of the "currentTimer" values averaged
together, then added onto the current time. When that time has been
reached, the next tick will happen...
