DIY piezo triggers

[rabalder]

I build my own piezo triggers for acoustic drums. Can this be a problem for the edrumin?

Well that depends on your design and what features you are expecting to use. Generally speaking it should work fine assuming the signal from your piezo is not way too strong or way to week.

Thanks.
I use piezos that has a size of 2.5mm - 3mm. Thats all I know (if it helps..).
I currently connect them to my audio interface and the signal definitely clips, but it works fine for maxmsp.
I also use a couple of Roland triggers (rt30) within the same system.

I need the audio inputs for other things, so I thought your modul might be perfect.
Will strong signals damage the unit?

[Rob]

You should have no problems. The eDRUMin inputs all have over / under voltage protection, so no worries there.

Awesome. Ill order when shipping is back to normal.

[Rob]

I have no idea when that will be. My best guess is a couple months. Where do live?

[rabalder]

Thats a very long time. I live in Norway.

The problem has to do with international flights. Right now there are only flights to the UK, France, and the US, so those are the only countries I can offer free shipping to. FedEx is the only other alternative and it's expensive. Maybe you know someone in the UK?

Ok. Thanks. Guess Ill just have to wait.
