Raspberry Pi GPIO Music Box

In this video, I introduce the GPIO Music Box project from raspberrypi.org. I explain the code fix I discovered for the delay when playing back sounds using pygame. I also talk about future ideas for expanding upon this project.

Vilros Raspberry Pi 4 Complete Kit

This is the Raspberry Pi kit I use in the video. If you hunt around, you can find cheaper versions or versions with different kit contents.

REXQualis Electronics Component Fun Kit

You'll also need buttons, a breadboard, and some wires. You can find these things individually but kits like these are an easy way to get everything all at once. I built my own buttons for this project but any sort of buttons you can attach to a breadboard should work great.

Logitech Keyboard and Mouse

This is nothing fancy but you'll need some peripherals for the Raspberry Pi if you don't have them. I prefer the wired versions but can't seem to find the keyboard/mouse I use on Amazon anymore.
