For my main project I am creating drum set. The drum setup would be to have a kick drum, a snare, a clap, a tom, and a hi-hat. The idea is to install Piezo sensors into different plastic cylinders. When each cylinder is struck it would produce the specific sound that I assigned to that Piezo sensor.
The concept of this project is to create a digital drum set. The idea will be conceived using four major components: an Arduino, Max/MSP, Piezo sensors and drum samples. The scope of this project is scalable depending on the amount of analog inputs in the Arduino, Piezo sensors, and drum samples, but for my project the goal is to create a standard drum set, which is five pieces. By writing the proper code for Arduino and Max/MSP to interpret the data from the sensors, it should be possible to use the values to output the chosen drum samples in Max/MSP when the sensors are struck.
