the Keith Raper circuit with the megadrum?

Postby ole_hansen » Mon Mar 09, 2009 12:33 pm

i'm wondering if a 3zone cymbal and the KRC can be used with the megadrum on ONE of the Ride/Crash inputs?
or do i need to plug the edge & bow into one Ride input
and the bell into another?

here's the circuit i'm planning to use (but hopefully adding a BELL piezo to the Ring of the jack as well - where the Edge and KRC circuit is now connected).

Megadrum works with 3 zones cymbal.
But this connection will not work.

hmm.. :( so the KRC circuit (as posted above) does not work with the MegaDrum?
i thought i saw Gastric mentioning it

so basically, if i want to have a 3 zone cymbal, i would need to use 2 inputs (one stereo, one half-stereo/mono) ?

The KRC circuit works with Megadrum ! ;)
One KRC is for 2 zones cymbal.

No, 3 zones cymbal (Yamaha type) works with only 1 input.

how do i set up this 3zone to ONE stereo megadrum input ?

will the MD actually receive/see 3 different midi messages, sent from the 3zone cymbal?

yeah i saw that. but i've just never heard or am able to find anyone who's made a 3zone cymbal using only one input before.

let alone anyone who has made the "double KRcircuit" above.
