= Making Music =
* DEVICES: Speaker
* THEORY: frequency, amplitude, software lookup tables
* TOOLS: frequency counter and/or oscilloscope
* HANDS-ON: use switches to make different tones. Make music using notes and note-to-frequency LUTs

Your kit includes a tiny speaker [[Image(http://i.ebayimg.com/00/s/MTI4MFgxNjAw/z/iq4AAOSwgQ9Vli0r/$_35.JPG, align=right)]].
You can use the speaker with your Arduino to make sounds and even play music.

**Exercises**: 
  * Make a sound
  * Play a song (use an array for the notes and lookup tables for the frequencies)
  * Use switches to make an instrument
  * Examine the signal being sent to the speaker using an oscilloscope
  * NOTE: later, we'll build a thermain
