An exemplary snare drum system comprises a shell, a batter head, a snare head, and a set of wires coupled to the snare head. The system comprises a tensioner coupleable to the set of wires of the snare drum. The tensioner comprising a base, a coarse adjuster, and a fine adjuster.

Electric, Electro Acoustic or Acoustic Drum with Internal Wiring Harness is disclosed herein. The drum comprises an internal wiring harness configuration. The internal wiring harness configuration comprises a plurality of first audio jacks that are mounted on an internal surface of the drum. The internal wiring harness configuration further comprises a connector assembly configuration comprising a plurality of second audio jacks and a multi-pin connector mounted on an external surface of the bass drum. Such configuration eliminates long cables and cumbersome wiring and provides a more natural and desirable connection to external processing.

A portable drum kit is disclosed. The disclosed drum kit comprising a base; musical instruments comprising one or more drums and at least one cymbal to be fitted on the base; one or more vertical columns fixed to the base to support at least one of the musical instruments at; one or more rod members detachably coupled to the one or more musical instruments; and at least one pair of modular clamps adapted to enable fitment of the least one of the one or more drums and the at least one cymbal to the vertical columns. The modular clamps allow movement of the musical instruments between an collapsed position in which the drums and the cymbal are placed closer to each other, and a deployed position in which the drums and the cymbal are placed at desired positions to allow a percussionist to use the drum kit.

A quick-release clamp for releasably attaching an instrument, in particular a percussion instrument, to a stand includes a passage opening for the stand, at least one movable clamping jaw for changing a cross-section of the passage opening, an operating element for influencing a position of the clamping jaw, and a housing. In the rest position of the at least one clamping jaw there is a form-fit connection between the at least one clamping jaw, the operating element and the housing to prevent the movement of the clamping jaw.

An impact detection device includes: a body configured to be struck; a vibration sensor that detects vibration of the body; a support base that supports the vibration sensor; a first elastic body sandwiched between the vibration sensor and the body; and a second elastic body sandwiched between the vibration sensor and the support base. A dimension of each of the first elastic body and the second elastic body is smaller than a dimension of the vibration sensor when viewed from an arrangement direction in which the first elastic body, the vibration sensor, and the second elastic body are arranged.

A solid wood block idiophone having slit reinforcement plates mounted against the sides of the idiophone's wood block is described. Advantageously, the reinforcement plates act to increase the durability of the wood having one or more open faced resonant chambers with chamber sidewall slits by preventing the wood from fracturing to and from the open woodgrain ends terminated at the sidewall slits.
