GCode-MIDI

This is a Python3 program that converts MIDI files into G-Code that can be run on 3D printers to play music.

At the moment, this only works with a single track without any chords, but I'm planning on adding up to 3 parts at once, each played by a different axis on a printer.

I have only tested this out on a Lulzbot Mini printer, but theoretically this should work on any 3D printer that makes noise when moving. You will just need to change the Y_MIN, Y_MAX, and maybe other constants to work with your printer.

gcode_midi.py is the old version, I don't recommend using it.

gcode_midi_2.py is an updated version that should work better, but I made some changes and haven't tested it yet.

gcode_midi_multi_axis.py is a partially rewritten version that has partial support for moving in multiple axes at the same time, but I haven't finished it yet.

There is a lot of cleaning up I need to do with the files, so be warned.

Requirements

This requires Mido to run. It can be installed by running the following command:

pip install mido
