Abstract
A universal musical instrument trainer is disclosed that indicates a correct musical note and time to play. The trainer has a first array of (LEDs coupled in series. A housing has a receptacle channel configured to mechanically coupled to the first array of LEDs. A controller assigns, to each one of the first plurality of LEDs, a musical note selected from a plurality of musical notes. The controller generates, at one or more predetermined frequencies, one or more pulse signals that includes information corresponding to a duration and a frequency of each pulse of light to be displayed in one or more of the first plurality of LEDs.
