Brilliant! Very inspiring project and thank you for sharing with the world! Can you give us a little info on the idea behind this and how the concept was made? I looked on the blog but there isn’t any history about how this idea came about.

Do i even need the ipad if i connect my speakers straight to the raspberry pie?

Online keytester that can test f13 -f19 is pretty cool find thanks.

Pretty neat board, I'm thinking of making something similar, glad to know it can actually be useful! One thing I'd say for anyone watching, with soldering, I find it so much easier to do the opposite to what you're doing here, and it means you're less likely to get cold soldering joints. (Those happen when the solder melt over a part but doesn't actually attach to it, the joint can easily break) In short: Instead of getting the solder ready over the part then putting the soldering iron to it, I really recommend taking the soldering iron, touching it to the part to solder AND the hole in which the pin is, THEN approaching the solder to that piece. It should melt when it touches them. That makes for a much stronger joint (also lasts longer and takes less effort to solder in general).

IVE HAD THIS IDEA FOR SO LONG. The tiny record covers to the wood box! 😔

Thanks a lot for a wonderful video . Can you please share the link of the site , which you used to flash your keyboard. Thanks a lot

Ooh I want to make this for a friend but want it to be user friendly. Im going to attempt to create a web ui that let’s a user scan an rfid tag into a field, then paste in a Spotify url in order to quickly update a database storing all of the rfid tag IDs and Spotify tracks/albums. I might add basic playback controls to the box as well. Super cool idea with a great execution, I can’t wait to start a new project!

This is totally overkill, us an ESP32

Can you have play back on a Sonos and not on the pi. But have the pi do everything else ?

is there to run this off of a microsd card instead of spotify?

You could just make a free touch deck with an esp32 and a TFT Display Which looks much nicer and easier you only have to sotter a few wires

instead of using a new elif statement for each song/album you wanna add, could you use a dictionary where the key is the rfid sticker’s id, and the value is the context uri for what you want it to play? i was just thinking about that while watching the video

Not sure if you are still keeping track off this project, i've just spent 3 days trying to build this project using a raspberry pi 4 with Bullseye OS. Cannot get it to work i cannot get the rfid stickers to scan. please help. Nigel

THIS IS SO COOL 🤩🤩🤩

problem with these is the programming. I'm building my own but with an ESP32 over bluetooth and a macro creator and profile editor hosted on a webserver on the ESP32.

trying to do this, I'm stuck getting invalid uri errors. can you help?

Amazing video!

can you use apple music for this?

hello, thank you for cool tutorial. But does anybody have issue with disconnecting raspberry from spotify after you hit play? 13:10 part in video

I've installed raspotify using rpi 2b and it is not visible from my laptop or phone. I'm guessing it doesn't work with old rpi models? and since my rpi 2b is connected via lan cable, maybe raspotify only works over wifi?

Thank you, i have been looking for something like this for a while

The big flaw with these simple macropads is that you'll have to switch keycaps every time you switch applications.. After having lots of DIY macropads I finally got a streamdeck..

Assemble everything together? What the heck is that? Assemble means to put together! Kinda redundant don't you think? Dumb.

Know how to do a macropad, dosnt know how to normalize video audio to 0 db :( (Select all audio, right click, select "audio gain", "normalize auido level to 0db")

This was really cool! You did a great job! Thank you for sharing with us!

Solder paste. Use it. Also, can we get married?

if i buy a lego set does this count a diy ;)

It seems you can also do playlist by changing the line sp.start_playback(device_id="", context_uri='spotify:playlist:putplaylisturihere')

ive been wanting to do something like this except the RFID is in my actual record sleeve and i would scan it when i put one on, which would display info about the currently playing album

It's like 210usd for 75% keyboard 😕

amazing video, but voice is too low

is there a similar program in windows plz?

can u do more like that? its pretty nice ;)

your voice is extremely calm and satisfying, it's like ASMR human voice

I mean its nice but still r/diWHY

abla ayakkabı numaran kaç?

This is amazing. I was able to rig up a working device in day. I am now working on the controls. Has anybody figured out how to resume playback at the last position, after pausing it using spotipy command pause_playback?

my spotify just disconnects from the device the moment sound is supposed to come out : (

How can I find the clear caps?

Dude this is amazing!!! I wanted to do something like this for a long time but didn't know how to go about it... Thank you

I think AFAIK, Spotify give out their API endpoints to only premium users. Something to consider if you don't already have a Spotify premium. Edit: oh she did mentioned you need a premium.

It is not DIY. You just assemble kit

Sweet idea, however, an easy improvement would be to store a file that the python code reads in that houses all the RFID tags and corresponding URLS. Then you can look through that file instead of adding a ton of if-else statements! would make the code more readable, and make it easier to edit your album collection since you could also have a "Album name" section in the csv file or whatever you use to hold the album info!

Hi, just a question, is it possible to add a screen to the raspberry pi to show current song playing also???

I met the 1UP Keyboard people at Comic Con and they were great. Got a kit from them there and would totally recommend them to anyone. Great video

I just saw the Yoto! video from Techmoan and the first thing i thought was cool idea but i bet a DYI version would be 100 times better and now I get this video recomended. The only difference would be to make it stop if the tag is removed, whitch would be like, you know, "playing" the record. Great Video!

I have an old Pi 3B sitting around and a 1 1/2 yo daughter who loves music. I'll make her own jukebox so she can play her favourites whenever she wants!

I loved the idea. I’m not into the raspberry thing, but ill try this sometime. Also: the code could be a bit better. And you should implement something to add/create new Albums. Like doing an put method to feed an vector (I don’t know if this exists in English, i mean the x[1,2,3] thing)

First: they are not "vinyls". Second, the opening on the sleeve is on the wrong side for authenticity. Third: what's the point?

Is there any way possible for this to be programmed to work with Apple Music? I have all of the hardware in my cart. I don’t use Spotify.
