A few times in the past, and even recently, there were some comments regarding the lack of a technology that could translate relatively well the percussion gestures done by hands. That technology exists and is quite affordable. It comes from Standford University and was licensed by Yamaha. The Korg used it to make the Wavedrum. Since I connected mine today I thought of doing a quick 'demo', just 1 minute in which: - fingers are brushed - nails are brushed - fingers are tapping - nails are tapping - pressure is applied and variations thereof. The Wavedrum is connected to the usual stereo tube preamp and compressor used for acoustic guitar, but with different settings, and then a bit of reverb was added. The Wavedrum currently has a Remo drum skin. Sound On Sound calls it 'true physical modelling'. https://soundcloud.com/nominal6/wavedrum1 Cheers. _______________________________________________ Linux-audio-user mailing list Linux-audio-user@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx https://lists.linuxaudio.org/listinfo/linux-audio-user
