Edge sense

Post by ohm-ish »

How does edge sense work?
It can work on a drum with just a single trigger right?

Yes, it was designed to work with a single piezo. How well it works depends on the construction of the pad. It works really well with mesh pads.

Alright.
I wonder how it can work with one piezo.. is the "difference" being registered between the two impact shapes somehow?
I thought a piezo was a simple thing with one simple signal

A signal is anything but simple. eDRUMin does waveform analysis and that let's it do some special things like edge sense, bell sense, and positional sensing.

edge sense works so well that even my zidljian 8" low volume splash with one single trigger can do it

Hold up, what pad type have you set this up with? Edge sense is not available on metal cymbal type, as Rob said it's not possible...

Just bought 6 Myrk edge switches...but I'm an input short due to the 3 zone ride needing 2 inputs (the bell can't share dual mono for some reason...), but edge sense on my china or stack might solve this.

I set it up as dual zone cymbal and mono input mode.
