PROGRAMMABLE METRONOME FOR PERCUSSION INSTRUMENTS AND AN APPLICATION

Öz

Applications of electronics in the music industry have been increasing continuosly. Develpoments in electro music and electro music instruments make this possible. Although it is known that the majority of musicians are against the digital music and techniques, researches show that it would be very benefical for teaching and learning of playing music intruments. This study shows that, music and electronic applications can be useable with together in the same projects. With this equipment people can practice on their own percussion studies. System designed as, speed and hit force in case of faulty users can be warned by program. Warning can be reailized as a visual with LED and also can be done with sound. In this study, at the same time shows that, without using physical metronome, metronome software and designed card can use at applications is may be possible. Based on the study is a software metronome and its card which can be used for all musical intruments. Designed metronome was tested for a electronic drum with a compare circuit. PIC-C compiler was used in order to get the designed card to work compatible with PIC. The circuit designed for the metronome is integrated with compare circuit and has been tested together.
