Talk:Synesthesia Mandala Drums

Only 127 velocities?

"Because a Mandala surface is divided into 128 position rings and can detect 127 strike velocities (greater than 0) it can produce up to 16,256 (128 x 127) individual triggers."

Please give a source for this info, as it sounds like original synthesis. That goes for both the calculated possible triggers and the total velocity levels.

I would think velocity level 0 is the lowest-velocity strike, making the total strike velocities 128. If level 0 were simply no strike at all, it wouldn't be used. I don't think MIDI needs to transmit a 0 for every non-strike... does it?

I'm going to remove this in a day or so if there's no source or response, but if you'd like to discuss this you can respond below on this page. Thanks. Equazcion ^(talk) 10:49, 14 Mar 2011 (UTC)
