First of all, I wasted time with the USB interface.
Further to one unknown problem on atmega8, I have of to modify the USB interface by one 18F2550.

I tested Megadrum with a DIY mesh head pad.
The module is really very sensitive and one very good answer,
even better than a TD-12 module from Roland which I was able to try !

Very good work Dmitri !!!

I use Toontrack DFH Superior with an external sound card M-AUDIO Fast Track Pro.
Incredible sound !!!

Make it and love it ! ;)

Well done, looks great! I like the idea of putting everything on one pcb. I think i'll use yours design, easy to understand x,y coordinates , but you have to post bottom side too :D . And maybe some details later.

Here is the bottom side !

It is not really sexy,
but it would make it a true PCB ... anybody ? ;)

As far i can see you have 8 pins, 8 resistors, 16 diodes and 1 multiplexer. Is that all you need for 8 channel? If so would this layout work.

You just have to put 4 of those, one below another.

I'm willing to try to draw PCB, this one i made in illustrator because it exceeds pin number in dip trace. Can you put values on components ,connections would be nice too.

Thanks.
