Arduino Opta PLC Robot Drum Machine [D1608S Expansion Module]

Arduino Opta PLC robot drum machine uses internal relays as "high hat" and drives external solenoids with D1608S expansion module solid-state relays to beat drum and power supply for additional percussion.

ToC:

0:00: Intro
0:24: Early experimentation/wiring/code
1:09: 3D-printed Solenoid mount (press fit/CNA glue)
2:35: Drum kit is alive!
3:20: Robot percussion/human guitar jam session

What's heard isn't exactly a 4 to the floor drum beat per an early misunderstanding, but the actual code should be that sequence. I'm a better engineer than musician.
