Aerobound - the air drumming "rebound"

I noticed that you can emulate a free stroke or full stroke with air drumming and this action needed a name. Since rebound was out of the question, I decided to call it Aerobound. I imagine that most of us learn to hit a drum using a full stroke. The idea is to throw the stick at the pad or drum and...

Re: Aerodrums 2 Questions and Suggestions

1. for those that will use Aerodrums 2 as a midi instrument or with a DAW like me, I'm hoping that the requirement for using a virtual midi convertor (LoopBe) has been removed, and it works as plug and play. Aerorums 2 should show up as a real usb midi device. So no need for a virtual midi cable. I...

Re: Aerodrums 2 Questions and Suggestions

I found a way how to have always the same exact positions of each drum when changing drum-kits. And it’s now over 5 years I’m using this procedure. Change your elements without having to replace them This is pretty cool, I haven't seen it before. Unfortunately, we probably won't have access to the ...

Re: invisible light camera modification for everyone!

So, you are saying that technically you don't need anything in front of the camera and lights, it's just for aesthetics? I guess you can say it's also for ESD protection (electrostatic discharge). It also keeps the dust out. If you plan to pack it around a lot, the cover is a good idea. If it's goi...

Re: invisible light camera modification for everyone!

https://www.amazon.com/Gzikai-9-6mm%C3%971-0mm-Optical-Infrared-Modified/dp/B0981BX423/ That glass blocks visible light, but looks pretty transparent to both 850nm and 940nm. So either kind of IR LED should pass through without an issue. Keep in mind that the light leaving the IR LED forms a cone. ...

Re: There is no rebound.

All the time you spend trying to prove you're right would be better spent figuring out how to do it right. This is not about being right. It's about being precise. How do you figure out how to do it correctly without precise instructions? Without understanding the underlying mechanics? Personally, ...

Re: There is no rebound.

There is no rebound. None at all. But there is no rebound with air drumming! Wow, you are tough. Yes there is, but you have to create it on your own. The effect you are talking about is not rebound. It can't be. Calling it rebound is like calling jumping anti-gravity. I assure you, every stroke I d...

Re: There is no rebound.

But now grip the stick between your index finger and thumb so that you can make it see-saw or wobble freely (i.e. not hitting the fingers or palm). It's not intuitive to understand, but when you make it see-saw you're still "picking up" the stick. It happens entirely at the fulcrum. One of the fulc...

Re: There is no rebound.

To be honest the exploration of sticking technique in the Kickstarter post is probably overkill. I hadn't seen that post (the one you linked). Maybe I did awhile back, but I didn't remember it. Rather than that kickstarter page, you should put it on your website. And it's not overkill, but it's als...

There is no rebound.

Aerodrums officially uses "apparent lack of rebound" to describe air drumming. This is misleading. There is no rebound. None at all. Rebound describes how much the stick bounces after striking a surface. There is zero bounce from the palm. What they should say is "There is no rebound, but you don't ...
