I would like to use an air pressure sensor to trigger when notes are to be played; it keeps the hands free to use the pitching buttons and also is in keeping with the trombone.
The pressure sensor will most likely be used in an on/off sense and not to dictate the velocity of the notes.
Coding the Arduino will follow a pattern of:
If air pressure sensor returns a value indicative of air being put into it, then:
read slide position and range value, and send the corresponding note to the Pi.
I will be ordering some of these on pay day to give them a try. They look small enough to be inserted inside a mouthpiece so that's a brucey bonus:
