[sdiy] crackle box

[Ray Wilson]

Hi Caleb

I have not seen a "touch pad" per se but I am familiar with several
mechanisms for creating a switch that will repond to being touched. Are
these strike pads as used in electronic drums or are they being used in
place of mechanical push buttons? What is the output you are trying to
achieve? Switch closure? Logic signal? Analog signal which responds to the
velocity of the touch? I imagine that if you provide more information
regarding your application you will get more responses.

Keep trying.

Cheers

P.S. I'm not familiar with a "crackle box" what is that?

Ray

I tried sending this question before, but it didnt get a response.  That
seems odd, so maybe it didnt go through.  I am trying to build a crackle
box.  The schematic calls for touch pads.  Anyone know where I can get these
or a part number?  Any help on tracking down these touch pad components
would be a great help.

Thanks community synth brain
