# scales

a simple music learning tool

an experimental project with the goal of learning music theory, and implementing what I learn into this toy

![screenshot](/documentation/ui.png)

## How does it work? 

Documentation in the [wiki](https://github.com/0XDE57/scales/wiki/How-to-calculate-notes-and-frequencies%3F)

## dependencies

- Python

- tkinter

- python-rtmidi (https://github.com/SpotlightKid/python-rtmidi)

## build and run

1. install python 3.

2. install python-rtmidi library from pip:

`pip install python-rtmidi`

3. run:

`python scales.py`

Note: Turns out there are a multiple variants of rtmidi available in pip with very similar package names (rtmidi, rtmidi2, rtmidi-python, python-rtmidi).

Installing the incorrect one will cause compile errors. The correct one is **python-rtmidi**. 

(last tested with python 3.10 and python-rtmidi 1.4.9)
