This is a tutorial on how to play the all-time favorite song "We Are One" from the 1998 Movie, The Lion King 2 Pride of Simba. I have carefully translated its music piece into equivalent acoustic frequency for you to play it using Arduino. Requires only four things; a speaker, few wires, Arduino, and your laptop.

    5. Connect your Arduino to your Laptop.

Connect Arduino to Laptop

 

    6. Upload the code and wait until it's done.

 

    7. Enjoy the melody. Give thumbs Up or comment if it is cool.

Did not play? Try to do the troubleshooting steps below:

  • Make sure the connections are correct. Use digital pin 7 and the ground for the connection of the speaker.
  • Make sure the wires are good. Try to check if one of them is not open or resistive. If you have a Multimeter/ VOM, use the continuity test or check the resistance. It must be close to 0 ohms.
  • Check if your Arduino is working properly. You must see green light for "ON", and an orange light near pin 13. If one of them does not show, your Arduino might be faulty.
  • Try to re-upload the code. Make sure it has uploaded correctly. Also check if the code is correct and unaltered. Copy and paste it again if it necessary.
  • If the code is failing to upload, visit this Link.
