REGULAR


he DrumCube is an Arduino-based robot
drummer. It replicates the sounds a regular
drum kit would make, with an arrangement of
servos hitting both a small can and a pair of piezo
transducers. It also uses a transistor white noise
generator that imitates the cymbal sounds.
I’m a Chilean artist/musician and also a maker,
self-taught on electronics, Arduino, and in most things I do,
really. I developed this project as a way to complement
my music gigs without any help from other
musicians, big drum kits, or digital tracks. This
is a musical machine that you can enjoy
watching, as well as hearing.
