With this particular step, there are lots of different things to pay attention to, so make sure you read carefully and plan before you do things.

With this particular step, please pay attention to detail, especially with which keys are connected to who, because what I found when some friends and I did this was that when we didnʻt pay attention to which keys were on who, it made it much more difficult to play, and we eventually just went back and re-did the ordering.

Finishing Up

Now you are in the final stages of creating your own MakeyMakey piano. Remember what I said about ordering the keys, because that will come in handy for these final steps, especially when you are starting to play.

Thank You for Viewing!
