Double-tap Drum Pad to start/stop

Post by Simon »

Hey guys

I've been talking with Bogdan over Messenger and he mentioned the One.2 from the German company Ploytec which has some pretty interesting features ;)
(see http://www.ploytec.com/one2/ )

Their device does not have much buttons, you can only tap it, so they implemented a double-tap as a start/stop.

I'm thinking this could be a fun (and easy) thing to implement on the Midronome, a simple double-tap on a connected Drum Pad will have the same effect as pressing the Play button. Since the Midronome can tap all the way to 400bpm this will mean it will not be possible to tap tempos > 250bpm on the drum pad anymore (because these will be recognized as start/stop).
Because of this I'm wondering whether this feature should be an option (so it can be activated or not).

Let me know what you think ;)

Cheers
Simon

Definitely a yes from my side. BPM above 250 is quite rare, I'd say.
I'd prefer a start/stop instead.
Greets for the open dialogue, Simon!
