Just an update on my drumset project. Testing out the snare drum with a vibration sensor. Only 40 LEDs light up because i put in the wrong number when i programmed it but thats basically what each drum would do when you hit it. Any feed back is extremely welcomed! And the LEDs would go on the inside i just didnt want to use up all my remaining LEDs for a test lol.
Which vibration sensor are you using?
I’m having trouble telling how reactive it is with that particular effect.
I also have 18020p and a bunch that are just black so i have no idea what sensitivity they are lol
Did you get any piezos to try out?
This is running a Firewalker sketch i just used it to test the sensitivity. Im hoping to get a modified version of the ripples effect to react to the vibration sensor but only when the drum is hit as opposed to every second
No im just using what i already have. My taxes ran out so quick i barely saw them lol
I don’t play the drums but I think you’re animation is too fancy.
Maybe try having it that every time the sensor senses something the LED’s all turn on and off for about 100 milliseconds.
That way the LED’s and drum will seem more in sync with each other. Currently it seems kinda out of sync
That make sense??
Yeah it does. Ill mess around with different patterns later for now this is more like a proof of concept
