Project: Music Box ——— 17 Points
Build a "Music Box" that plays a little tune every time it's run

• The tune doesn't have to be "pretty" but should be "interesting" enough to listen to several times
• At any point, at least two notes must play simultaneously (may occur throughout)
• At any point, at least one effect must be used which is not Feedback Delay or Auto Wah (these may also be used)

Bonus: Rando ——— 3 Points
Add a little randomness, so that the "Music Box" doesn't always play the same tune
Points:

Documentation, Examples, Demos and Tutorials from Tone.js

• Tone.js Documentation
  Useful with these further resources
  
  • Tone.js Examples
    Choose an example on the left, then find the
    
  • Code for each Example
    in the projects github repository
  • There are also these demos
    hosted by Tone.js —maybe you'd like to Submit a Project!
  • The Tone.js Wiki
    This is a hub for learning Tone.js. You can see the list of tutorials in the right-hand links list

Tutorial Links, Elseweb

• A YouTube playlist of tutorial projects for Tone.js by Gregg Fine, AKA "The Code Creative":
  
• Hello World
• Effects
• Building a QWERTY Keyboard Synthesizer
• Working with Oscillators
• Programming Digital Media (PDM)
  Part of the Digital Design and Emergent Media pathway at Louisiana State University, taught by Matthew Bardin
  Within this course we'll look at:
• Sound With Tone.js
• Basics of Sound: A solid introduction to sound itself, then take these sections out of order:
• Synthesized Sound and Sequencing
• Sound File Playback and Audio Effects
The above PDM content has a great set of videos which accompany it

• Dan Tramte begins a series of videos as part of his Browser Noise series


• David Bouchard has two different series as part of his Generative Processes courses
  • One from 2022
  • And one from 2020
  
  
• Jake Albaugh experiments in featuring Tone.js in CodePen


• Finally, I'm building an eclectic playlist of video tutorials from around the web, some of which you'll find in playlists I link to, above

Extras:

• Lightnote
  For a little music theory
