How to make a velocity sensitive electronic drum kit (DIY HOMEMADE ARDUINO)
HTML-код
- Опубликовано: 24 июл 2021
- This is a continuation of my ideas about diy electronic drum pads/kits. I rectified some issues from the previous video like implementing velocity sensitivity. I am using an Arduino micro controller to translate the drum hits into midi data sent to a laptop.

Can u please give the code
You have a Arduino coad ?
@@eshanlakshitha9456 Hi...I think I lost the code...but it's not hard if you know programming..just alot of experimenting
Whoever says your videos are a waste of time just wasted their time typing that nonsense. Your videos are awesome! Keep it up!
Aside from the awesome tutorial, this video is really well shot. I love it.
Love the incidental cockerel, footie excerpts and overall "Hey - Its real life for us real people" look of this - Brill
You are clever. That comment wasn’t clever, it was pathetic. Keep doing your thing! ❤
I do love the way you made this electronic drums kit.
It was nice and beautiful sound output.👌Great job💪
I was already impressed and then saw midi! Awesome project mate
See, this guy has such awesome creativity in the smallest things like camera placement. The totally unecessary but awesome undercarriage shot 2:13 , for example. I wish more RUclipsrs got creative with direction choices and using tripods, etc. Usually it's the same old framing
very cool afrorack!!! i was looking to find a electronic drum kit I can put my own drum sounds into and came across this video and mind blown you can make this because as you said they can be very expensive. i really want one i can put my own sounds into then record in my music program. very impressed with what you have done in this video. very talented and skilled work to do something like this!
i'm from the philippine. i have an intense desire to have a drum set. but i don't have enougth money. and this video is just exactly what i'm looking for. i'm so fortunate for this amazing man.
Have you made one?
@@Ulibert even until today. i'm not able to earn that few resources. life here is though for most of us. i'm just playing on my phone that's the only most possible.
@@adimardev1550what's up? nagbubuild ka pa rin ba ng diy e-drums?
@@dangalera6326 wala na bro. bising bisi na e. sa phone na lang drum.
Nakabuo ka na?
I liked this video very much! Very nice project, keep up the good work mate
What a clever project! Fantastic! And also great music in the video.
I'm grateful for this video, I'm looking to building one myself and put in my studio. Thanks again
Pliz do..its alot of fun though i am not a drummer myself
@@Afrorackyou're not?
@@placeholdername3907 no am not..
Love your work, greetings from Brazil!!!
Amazing work my bro, much love from Australia
This video deserves millions of views
Awesome work there. Keep it up
It's like a travel video! I want to go to Uganda and play music! Love the chickens, the "real men" hand tools, the bicycle. I like the piezos inside the two rubber pads idea.
You are very welcome...
Those chickens!! 🚍🐔🐔
Awesome man! Great job and thank you for sharing !!!
That’s great! I Definitely want to do something like this for my studio
Hey man. Great work with these videos. Don't pay attention to some losers who think it's time wasted. After all what's the point of having knowledge if you cant share it.
I dont think thats what the comment meant, more like that afrorack sadly doesnt explain much on the circuit part, as if anybody was familiar with this
This is incredible
Very nice Drums!
Welcome for the great work Sir
loved this video!! thank you!
Super sir you are doing a nice work naturally
nice !! (lovely chickens btw 😍🐔🐓)
Excellent job!
hey man, pay no mind to trolls in the comment section. actually, you are quite clever and very resourceful. this is a great project and an interesting video. thanks for sharing
First off, you are quite clever.
Haha..
Most def.
brilliant! thanks for sharing
SIMPLY AMAZING!!!
god damn using pipes was a hella good idea
This is awesome!
Great video. Subscribed!
fantastic!
very inspirational!!!!
Awesome video! I love the tour of the city! Thank you so much for sharing! Can you do a video on the code or share where i can get the code? I am currently building a kit myself and running into problems coding!
Very cool!
Nice work :) Thank you for sharing this ! Btw i'm also using my iron to make hole, and yes i also have a drill
The iron is sometimes works better...but gets destroyed in the process
@@Afrorack When I use it to make holes, I clean it immediately with a cotton cloth and I finish cleaning it once it is cold with a very fine sandpaper it's the best way I found to damage it as little as possible, so I use it mostly for square holes
this is the real DIY
Thanks man!
this is so freaking underrated
Hey, awesome video and awesome project!! I found this video because in my materials science subject, me and my group wanted to build also an electric drum kit for our class project. We actually figured out how to send the midi to my computer through the arduino microusb port with a library called ardumidi that can read the serial of the arduino and the hariless MIDI program that can bridge the midi from the serial to a virtual midi port previously created, but the result is kind of poor since there is a lot of lag and I cannot get the code to read de analog properly. I had to do all that because I previously tried soldering a MIDI socket and sending the midi with a "MIDI to USB" cable to the computer and it didn't work. I would love to see your program and how you connected it to the laptop. I was looking for it in your channel since you mention it in the video but I couldn't find it.
Thank bro
That is cool
It’s really amazing, no need to go to eBay any more,hehehe! Work wamanyi
nice again
wow astig
HELL yeah dude. I'm doing this holy shit!!
Respect🙏🤘
Nice project. Could you give a link to the code used
cool
Good
Amazing..congrats. Really good. But never use soldering for making holes, unless, like me, you have One just for that 😂😂😂😂

That chickens are like
dad me me me me me pleaaaaaaaaaaase
🤣 lmao
How to make octapad Roland spd sx plzz make the video
Muito show sua apresentação, nota 10 pelo ótimo trabalho. 8:30 eu pensei que só no Brasil se usava uma faca como chave de fenda. As esposas querem o couro dos maridos kkk
Greetings to Brazil
Great work!! Can you share the code?
Please hrlp me and send me like a diagram how you do the module for your E drum set.thank you so much.
brother thanks for the tutorial. but i have a question. was the piezo sensor only need to be soldered?
❤❤❤❤❤
Thanks for this amazing video..
Please where can I get the Arduino microcontroller from?
I don't know where u live but arduino's are easily available in my city...you should be able to get a hold of one
How about the module? The circuit connection? DIY?
based and pvc pilled
What changed in the way you set up the piezos last time we learnt about there problem with resistance and that's why they partially couldn't give us the result we want. What has changed? Is it the Arduino programming?
Yes the program has changed but the biggest change is how the piezos are mounted.That makes the most difference
Great project! Did the brickgame piezos work better than the previous ones?
They are sligthly better quality but the more important thing i discovered that makes a huge difference is how the drum head is constructed.
How to make wiring
I love this sir
Thanks so much for the video
But sir I dont really get the connection sir can you help me with it sir 🙏
Which connection
@@Afrorack The trigger connection there is a panel you put inside which i dont know the name sir
Hey i didn't get the electronic control part what did you use for sounds
It is a MIDI controller...the sounds come from any instrument or computer that can read MIDI data
really nice video. do you have some tutorial or resource to the building of the drum brain? I have some second hand rock band pads, they have piezoelectric with a cable that ends up in a mini jack, so I was thinking of using my old raspberry pi 3 as a brain, have there the software and something in the middle to connect the pads... I know how to code, but Im not very familiar with real circuits
greetings from Argentina!
since you already have the pads, you can experiment reading the outputs when you hit the pads...not conversant with Raspberry pi...but I use microcontrollers..then you can read the peak voltage when there's is a drum hit and convert that to MIDI velocity...and send a midi note and send that as midi information to a midi sound generator.In theory it's easy but in practice it takes alot of tweaking to avoid false triggers etc..but since you write programs you can make it I think
@@Afrorack thanks for the quick answer!! I thought something like that too, but I still am in doubt with connecting the mini jacks someway to the raspberry. I suppose I need to study a bit more of hardware. do you remember any language or libraries that you have used to do the software part?
please how did you do this I would love to do mine can you assist me
I show everything in the video...unless u have a specific question
Can you endecate all the parts to make the electronic drums pls notice this comment
Hi Afrorack! How are you? Sorry for this question, but do you still have the schematics of the 100w Guitar amp head? Again, sorry the questions but i like so much the project and i want to learn how to build this type of amps (Solid state) Thx and greatings from Uruguay!
Oh i can send them...if you dont mind send me a remnder on Facebook...Look for Afrorack or Bamanya Brian
@@Afrorack Ok! Thanks you so much!
@@Afrorack I send you a message in facebook
Hi I just see your video. Can you sent me your schematic on your electronic drums plz. Best regards
Please can you show me some device that I can piezoelectric from?
In Uganda we have Cards they sell in bookshops which have piezos that play music otherwise you may to get them online
How to buy aurdino controller kit .??
Please sir shared a link..??
I don't know what city you are in but am pretty sure you can buy arduino almost anywhere in the world..if you have access try amazon, ebay or local electronic shops
How did you make it velocity sensitive? Like did you code something up or is that in the drum module?
Hi Afrorack, just wondering if you share your arduino code for this midi drums anywhere online?
I think I got lazy at some point..I would be like I need to find time and improve the code then upload it..then that never happened..I will find time and revisit the project and share hopefully sooner than later
can you give me a code brother..
Amazing video!! May I ask what kind of 6.35mm jacks you use to connect the piezos to the arduino board? Thanks
What kind of jacks? I use the normal phono type jacks because I already have music instrument cables..to connect them
@@Afrorack No doubt I also like the instrument cables because they stabilize the connections so you can unplug/plug in and transport easier. Do your phono jacks have 3 conductors/prongs or will it work with 2? I'm curious because I'm unsure if you need to have an independent ground wire on the jack to connect it to the arduino.
@@torpzp 2 contacts is enough..ground and signal
@@Afrorack Sounds good...last couple questions... did you use the same circuit as from your other video on how to make electronic drum pads? I'm seeing other people on the internet use a 1MΩ compared to your 10MΩ. Did you find this better suited for the voltage spikes of the drum pad? And, was the 5.1v zener diode necessary in this set up? Thanks for your help!
@@torpzp Actually I will be making another video soon on the drums....u need to experiment with different values of resistors and see the response... in my next build I will use less resistance values...makes the pad more responsive...the zeners can also be left out if u experiment and see that your piezos are not sending out high voltage spikes to the arduino close to or above 5volts....heard that the arduino has over voltage protection on its inputs but haven't investigated that further
Can acoustic guitar pickups work on this?
I don't know..never tried...of they are piezo pickups they should
Whats that motherboard? Can you teacj me about the wiring of the piezos
The piezos are connected to an Arduino which sends out MIDI which can trigger a drum module, VST etc
@@Afrorack thanks man, you helped me so much!
Hi, i have been watching different videos about DIY drum kits, what is the difference between using arduino or not for the electronic, for some of the videos you do not need arduino. Thanks.
You use an Arduino or a microcontroller if you are building your system from scratch...If you already have a drum module then you simply make the pads...hope it makes sense
@@Afrorack I do not have any drum module, I am starting from scratch, some people do not use arduino, they make a PCB with IC LM324N and some leds, LDR and resistors. That is why I was asking not sure what option should I try.
give me coding for arduino uno.. please 🙏
"real men use muscle" LMAOO
Hi sir...can you please share the code
Hi man...will look around and see where I saved the code.
Where to buy the modul?
Am using an Arduino....you can buy them in many places
@@Afrorack thanks
Hello sir
Pls help me make this instrument
How much does it cost overall?
The materials not much .but ur time..quite abit...The materials also depend on where u stay
Can u please comment all the electronics u need please
@@frangie9858
Arduino
Piezo discs
These are the main things..Do you know how to use Arduino?
@@Afrorack idk how to use arduino
@@Afrorack please tell me an easy and cheap way it will help me a lot thanks
almost had kfc hahaha
just need an adjustment on the piece placement
So, I think I know what the guy was talking about. The information provided is wonderful...but you don't provide enough information on how to do it, to be able to replicate it. There is no information on the code, how to wire anything, or how to wire up that box.
OK so you know nothing of electronic drums.

2 minutes in and this is weird. I'm watching it, But the whole film aspect of it is I don't know what to say other than quite interesting. OK carrying on
without coding..... not worth
So power tools are for women, then proceeds to mess up using hand tools, an has to revert to power tools.
Hmmmmm....
That was a sarcasm/a joke...that some people missed..
Hey cool project but what is this sexist shit about "powertools are for women, real men use muscles" wtf?
That was a joke ..coz I was using the power tools..some people got it..but thanks for ur comment
didnt enjoy the sexist comment at 3' 48"
Certainly power tools are not for women because I used them. That was the joke...
i was like you on the first seconds i've seen the text but if you have seen the scene until the end he's using the power tools ;)
No such thing as sexism.There are things that women are wired to do and things men are wired to do.Men and women are interested in different things; I guess biology is "sexist" in your mind.
