Readme

Luminote is a visualization tool developed to enhance the experience of playing a digital piano. Connected via MIDI, Luminote displays the notes as they are played. It also highlights sustained notes in blue, allowing musicians to distinctly see their sustain usage.

In addition to this, Luminote can communicate with a WS2812 LED strip via an ESP32 over Wi-Fi, offering a visual representation of notes and sustains on the LED strip.

Features

1. MIDI Connectivity: Luminote can connect to your digital piano via MIDI.
2. Sustain Visualization: Any notes held by the sustain pedal are distinctly displayed in blue.
3. LED strip integration: Luminote can send light configurations to a WS2812 LED strip connected through an ESP32 over Wi-Fi.
