Noah, I am a very humble guy, and I TRULY took time out of my day (about 4 hours) to read up on all of the software you recommended. But, I just couldn't figure ANYTHING out. I'm not sure, but I think a large reason was because the software caters to operating systems other than Windows, and this seems to be something from a foreign country (I don't think someone from America is smart enough to make this up n e wayz) LOL.
If you message me to explain, or comment back, it would be APPRECIATED!
well.. i dont know what to use on windows. most important: there needs to be at least one microphone in your laptop's display panel. what you need is a modular synthesizer and a midi soundfont player. in your modular synthesizer make a bandpass filter for each different tapping sound, connect the output to a midi trigger. experimentally find the characteristic frequency for each tapping sound by playing around with the bandpass filters. if you are still interested, ask me.
"Alsa Modular Synth" (ams) for processing the incoming audio signal and generating different MIDI events depending on the sound.
"FluidSynth" to make the drum sounds. (It processes the MIDI data from ams)
"Jack Audio Connection Kit" to feed the mic channel into ams, the MIDI data from ams into fluidsynth and the drum sounds from fluidsynth to the speakers
All this runs on top of a low-latency linux kernel with the realtime-lsm module for fast processing.
just wanted to mention that all what i used is open source :) you can have it for free! and even read the sources (or put the drum sensor patch into an own LADSPA module) - yeah..
Hi, great work there.. i'm thinking of building a digital drum trigger set but i'm confused about the processor to be used.. should i buy an expensive digital drum module or should i use a pc based software?
A PC is okay. But you have to consider some things if you want to have a good drumming experience. The main problem is latency. I used a preemptible linux kernel with the realtime-lsm module for my audio applications - so the latency was <2ms. So the next thing is - how to connect the drum's hardware to the pc? the analog inputs of your sound card may ben an option. it depends on what kind of signal your trigger creates. tell me more, i'll help you :)
there are 2 microphones in the upper part of the display panel. the software recognizes the sound and analyzes the frequency. as there are two microphones, also left/right distinguishing is easy. i also improved it a little bit after i made this video. it now makes louder sounds, when i tap harder and clapping in front of the right microphone triggers a clap sound. with tapping (100Hz), clapping (500Hz) and fingernail (1100Hz) up to 6 instruments would be possible.
my name is noah too!!!!

Noah is actually just my nick name. I chose it because my family name "Noack" was once misunderstood as "Noah".

Jack runs on windows, Fluidsynth can be built on Windows, and a midi drum pad doesn't care where it's output goes to.

hahahaha do you all think thats real?????

yes i do. there are microphones in the lid. the software can analyze the tapping sound and dermine where i tap by he frequency spectrum.

could somebody pm or post a comment how does he do it im using windows and where can i download this 3 softwares

Synthfont is a good and free (but closed source I think) sf2 player that runs on windows.

the software ..... !! how it names??

I used three pieces of software:
"Alsa Modular Synth" (ams) for processing the incoming audio signal and generating different MIDI events depending on the sound.
"FluidSynth" to make the drum sounds. (It processes the MIDI data from ams)
"Jack Audio Connection Kit" to feed the mic channel into ams, the MIDI data from ams into fluidsynth and the drum sounds from fluidsynth to the speakers

where to get that software? i want to try making one. (:

How does that actually work??? How does the laptop sense where you're tapping the screen?
