Dr. CockroachOne slight drawback for this little keyboard is that it only plays two notes at a time so even a simple three note chord is not possible.
Has anyone else dug into one of these and done a bit of bending to boost the performance?? If so then please chime in :-)

Turn it into a MIDI controller? With some great sounding sound fonts you could surprise people playing it.

That certainly a possible and it sure would surprise and turn some heads ;-)
Are you sure? yes | no
Maybe even glockenspiel or tubular bells which would give the chime sound you want. 😉
Are you sure? yes | no
One of the output points actually does have a tubular bell quality to a degree but I need to keep messing with the circuit to raise the frequency of the oscillator a but more. I would like to gain another octave or two. These Led/CdS pairs get a bit fussy after a certain point :-)
