Trombone Simulator

The goal of the trombone simulator is to approximate the feel of playing a real trombone.
This approximation consists of the fact that the position or the movement of the slide of the trombone provides for corresponding tones or glissandi between the notes. It is possible to switch between the different positions at the touch of a button.
Instead of the player's lips, the sound is generated by a self-written program: the positions or movements of the trombone slide detected by an ultrasonic sensor are converted into MIDI notes of the corresponding pitch, which in turn trigger trombone notes played by the seminar participants.
