from Jenna deBoisblanc and Spiekenzie Labs initial code The code is from an Arduino Xylophone Instructable. on the serial output if the force exceedsĭigitalWrite(LEDPIN,HIGH) // indicate we're sending MIDI data Serial.begin(57600) // set serial output rate #define PIEZOTHRESHOLD 5 // analog threshold for piezo sensing * This is designed to let an Arduino act as a drum machine Just play around a bit and find a method that suits your needs :) There are a lot of other ways, for example using Hairless as explained in this Instructable.

Simply load the sketch to your Arduino and then open Ardrumo and Garageband.You can choose different drums in Ardumo as you can see in the video in the first step.īut like I said, this is not the only possible way to connect. After some research and trying different programs I found Ardrumo (Mac OS X only) the easiest to work with. There are a few possible ways to connect. Everything has now been put together and the only step left is to connect everything with the computer.
