Megadrum 56 input questions

Hi, I am very new to this and have some questions =)

Can I make a 56 inputs module with the Atmega644?
Where can I find list of materials, schematic and pcb pdfs for the module that use the Atmega644?
The module can be done in a single pcb with the Atmega644? Where can I find the pdf for that?
In other words, if I buy an Atmega644, where can I find all information to make a module with it?

Off topic: When I connect a 3 zone pad, it use 3 inputs? I have to connect 3 plugs to the module?

Thanks!! More questions to come!! Lol.

I guess you mean a pad with one piezo and 2 switches, which is usually the case with ride cymbals. If that`s the case, you would use only one input.

Yes.

Where can I find list of materials, schematic and pcb pdfs for the module that use the Atmega644?

Right on the first page of this subforum you should have seen the topic called MegaDrum 56 inputs latest schematic and PCB

The module can be done in a single pcb with the Atmega644? Where can I find the pdf for that?

Again, MegaDrum 56 inputs latest schematic and PCB

In other words, if I buy an Atmega644, where can I find all information to make a module with it?

Right in this forum. Forum's Search and Google will help you to start. See MegaDrum FAQ. Read it before posting in this forum!

Yamaha style 3 zone cymbals use 2 inputs (one stereo jack). Roland style 3 zone cymbals use 3 inputs (two stereo jacks).
