- Refactor the audio processing and visualization tasks into separate cores, improve CPU usage monitoring, optimize memory usage, manage inter-core communication, and enhance network functionality. - This code snippet provides a basic implementation of a piano note detection system using an Arduino. The system includes a setup phase where calibration and initialization are performed, along with serial communication for user interaction. The main loop is empty, as all the work is handled by separate tasks created on different cores. The `setup()` function sets up the serial connection, initializes the piano note detector, and creates two separate tasks: `audioProcessingTask` and `visualizationTask`. These tasks handle the audio processing and visualization of the detected notes, respectively. The main loop runs in a paused state to allow for task execution on different cores. The audio processing task (`audioProcessingTask`) reads analog signals from an I2S microphone (C2-C6), processes them using Fourier Transform, and detects note frequencies. It then updates a spectrum visualization and sends the results over the serial interface to the host PC for further analysis. The visualization task (`visualizationTask`) receives the processed data from the audio processing task, visualizes the spectrum, and sends updates over the serial interface. The main loop in the `loop()` function is empty, as all the work is handled by these tasks.

|
|
|
|
1. Note Display:
|
|
```
|
|

|
|

|
|
```
|
|
|
|
2. Spectrum Display (when enabled):
|
|
```
|
|
Frequency Spectrum:
|
|
0Hz |▄▄▄▄▄
|
|
100Hz |██████▄
|
|
200Hz |▄▄▄
|
|
...
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
## Performance Tuning
|
|
|
|
1. Start with calibration by pressing 'c' in a quiet environment
|
|
2. Play notes and observe the detection accuracy
|
|
3. Use '+' and '-' to adjust sensitivity if needed
|
|
4. Enable spectrum display with 's' to visualize frequency content
|
|
5. Adjust `Config.h` parameters if needed for your specific setup
|
|
|
|
## Implementation Details
|
|
|
|
- Uses FFT for frequency analysis
|
|
- Implements peak detection with dynamic thresholding
|
|
- Filters out harmonics to prevent duplicate detections
|
|
- Tracks note timing and duration
|
|
- Uses ring buffer for real-time processing
|
|
- Calibration collects ambient noise profile
|
|
|
|
## Troubleshooting
|
|
|
|
1. No notes detected:
|
|
- Check microphone connection
|
|
- Run calibration
|
|
- Increase sensitivity with '+'
|
|
- Verify audio input level in spectrum display
|
|
|
|
2. False detections:
|
|
- Run calibration in a quiet environment
|
|
- Decrease sensitivity with '-'
|
|
- Adjust `PEAK_RATIO_THRESHOLD` in Config.h
|
|
|
|
3. Missing notes:
|
|
- Check if notes are within C2-C6 range
|
|
- Increase `FREQUENCY_TOLERANCE`
|
|
- Decrease `MIN_MAGNITUDE_THRESHOLD`
