Arduino Quad Drum DIY

Arduino Drum


                   This tutorial consists of making an Arduino Drum. I will use the piezo sensor as a sensing device in this project. Zener diode and Resistor is the voltage regulator. The Arduino Uno (development kit) is the main processing unit. 
                On the impact of any hard object to the piezo sensor, it emit's electronic signal. All these signals are processed by the development kit.

         Apparatus Required:-

                1) Arduino Uno

                2) Piezo Sensor

                3) 1 Mega Ohms Resistor

               4) 5.1 Volt Ziner Diode

               5) Perforated Board
              6) Jumper Cord's
             7) Computer Or Laptop

     Procedure                                                     
             Step 1)  Connect the VCC and GND to the jumper wires using solder.
             Step 2) Now we have to connect the 1 megaohm and 5.1volt ziner diode in parallel as connected in the diagram below.
              Step 3) Now connect the ground (positive of the diode) to make a common ground.
               Step 4) Now connect the VCC of the piezo sensor to the Vcc of the parallel circuit and ground to the ground of the circuit.
                Step 5) Now repeat the step 4 for all the sensor's as shown in pictures.

                 Step 6) Then we have to connect the Arduino (development kit) with the circuit. This can be done by connecting the Vcc and GND of the circuit as follows

  •  Vcc of piezo 1 to A0 of Arduino
  • Vcc of piezo 2 to A1 of Arduino
  • Vcc of piezo 3 to A2 of Arduino
  • Vcc of piezo 4 to A3 of Arduino
  • Ground of circuit to gnd of Arduino
                 Step 7) We have to download the software and readymade code from this link        (Arduino files)  and download the Arduino Integrated Development Environment and install it in your host device (pc, laptop) 
                 
                 Step 8) Now we have to add the midi file to our Arduino Integrated Development Environment these files are in Arduino files.T hen we have to connect the Arduino Uno.
      
NOTE:- IF WANT TO KNOW HOW TO CONNECT THE ARDUINO UNO TO HOST AND LOAD THE CODE IN IT THEN YOU MAY VISIT MY ANOTHER BLOG (Arduino-How to download.)

                 Step 9)Now we have to install these software's  Hairless Software Setup, loop Setup
 after the installation, we have to open the hairless midi serial bridge and here we have to set the input port to the Arduino the port details which we have to connect is viewable in the suggestion box.

                 Step 10) Now we have to open Midi Loop Software, Create a port and Copy that port name to the Hairless-midi series bridge Output section.
   
                   Step 11) Now Download FL studio (from this link F L Studio Download) and, install it. Then we have to open FL-studio.

 Now on every beat of the drum with a stick will give you a sound which can be changed from fl studio.
Enjoy...

I have also made a complete video of this tutorial so for better understanding, you may see my video.

Docker: Build, Ship and Run Any App, Anywhere

-
Image
Many times any piece of code runs very well in our Device / Environment but fails in any other device / Environment. So, Docker solved that problem.  Docker is basically a container management service. Some of the most common and important terms associated with it are containers, image, package, deploy, ship, etc. Docker is very handy for developing applications and software, and to then ship them into containers that can be deployed anywhere, irrespective of the platform. Importantly, Docker is open-source, which means that anyone in the world can contribute to it and manipulate the code to meet one’s own needs if additional features that aren’t available are required. Why Docker? Docker has the ability to reduce the size of the deployment by providing a smaller footprint on the operating system via containers. With containers, it becomes easier for groups of people across different units, such as the development team, to work seamlessly across applications. ...

ए क परम धार्मिक बौद्ध महिला हर संभव प्रयास  करती थी कि वह अपने मन , वचन और कर्मों से किसी का भी आहित न कर दे लेकिन जब कभी वह बाजार मैं सामान खरीदने जाती , एक दुकानदार उससे अभद्रता करता | एक बारिश वाले दिन जब दुकानदार ने फिर से उससे अभद्रतापूर्वक बात की तो महिला आत्मनियंत्रण खो बैठी और उसने दुकानदार के सिर पर छाते से प्रहार कर दिया | इस घटना से ग्लानिवश , वह उसी दिन एक मठ मैं गई और वहां  प्रधान भिक्षु को सारा वृतांत सुनाया , महिला ने कहा , 'मैं बहुत दुखी हूँ | आज पता नहीं कैसे मैं मन पर नियंत्रण को बैठी |' "देखो ",भिक्षु ने कहा ,"अपने मन मैं इस प्रकार ग्लानी का भाव रखना उचित नहीं है |जीवन मैं हमें एक -दुसरे को अपनी मन की भावनाएं बताने के लिए उनसे संवाद करना ही पड़ता है और तुम इसमें कुछ कर भी नहीं सकती    क्योंकि हर व्यक्ति का स्वभाव भिन्न होता है | भविष्य मैं तुम यहाँ करना की अगली बार यदि वह कोई अभद्रता करे तो तुम अपने ह्रदय मैं असीम करुना एकत्र करना और पहले से भी अधिक जोर से उसे छाते  से मरना ,  क्योंकि वह उसकी भाषा ही समझता  है| मंत्र : जो जिस...
