In this method, you use the application vkeybd to play the keyboard using the amsynth application. In this case, both are X applications, so you need
- A screen connected to the Pi
- A vnc session
The steps below show how to use a the vnc server tightvnc to do this. TBD
In this method we make an Arduino connected to the Raspberry Pi act as a midi device sending midi messages which the Pi simply plays. It does this using something known as ttymidi which listens for a midi device on the serial port.
TBD
In this method, we use amsynth in it's headless mode to play notes
from a python script without the assistance of an X environment
By default, the amsynth package installed from the raspbian sources
does not have the capability to run headless. So we will be compiling
it from source to access this awesome feature
TBD
