#102845 - That's how keyboards work! Responding to: ???'s previous message |
Perhaps my experience is a bit outdated, but the MIDI keyboards I am familiar with use two sets of contacts; one normally closed (the break contact) and one normally open (the make contact). The MIDI velocity is related to the time it takes from the break contact opening until the make contact closes. I guess that's SIMILAR to the ideas discussed here for the drum.
Also, I second the thought that one-micro-per-pad is overkill. I've never seen any of the major manufacturers do it. Now, one-micro-per-string -- that's another story. ;-) I might have some schematics laying around (where I'm not sure) of older Simmons/Roland/Yamaha/KAT drums. That might indicate whether the signals are tied to A/D or not... GB |
