The educational design of electronic drum and a musical education simulator

Although music and electrical-electronics doesn?t seem to be related to each other very much, in today there are many devices, which for the design, usage, and teach of music instruments. All musical instruments can be explained by using some electrical?electronics physical rules and laws from their accords to the working types.In this study, it has been showed that using a software card design as metronome can be possible without using manual or digital metronome. In this card, a program that has been written in C Programming and a circuit has been used and they are also controlled by the PIC.In the second part of the circuit, the analog signal that has been received from the electro-drum is digitized; the severity of the stroke and the speed is controlled by a PIC Program, written in C Programming. By this way, the stroke can be controlled whether is desired or not. False hits are reported to the user as visual and audio. In this way the drumbeats are analyzed.First, the card has been tried in a computer and then after the final checks on the board, the design has been completed and boxed.Questionnaires have been prepared for some students and teachers to define this similator?s usability in education. The answers for these questionnaires have been evaluated and analyzed with SPSS. Both teachers and students have approved this smilator?s usability in education and the use of metronome at similator.
