The invention relates to the field of musical instruments and percussion musical instruments in general, particularly to support accessories of percussion musical instruments, and more particularly to a drum pad holder. The drum pad holder (2) according to the present invention is arranged for holding a drum pad (1), said drum pad holder (2) comprising a base element (40), which base element (40) is arranged fastenable to a thigh of a user, an adjustable arm arrangement, and a head element (30); in which drum pad holder (2) said head element (30) comprises a head pin (32) arranged for holding said drum pad (1), said head pin (32) comprising a securing arrangement for securing said drum pad (1) in place.

A double-layer dumb drum with a sand belt adjusting function includes an upper-layer elastic body, a strike edge, an upper bottom plate, a sand belt adjusting device, an internal resonance chamber, an external resonance chamber, a lower-layer elastic body, and a lower bottom plate. The upper-layer elastic body is fixed to the top of the upper bottom plate; the internal and external resonance chambers are under the upper bottom plate; the sand belt adjusting device is installed in the internal resonance chamber; and the bottom of the internal resonance chamber is sealed by the external resonance chamber. A lower-layer elastic body is fixed to the top of the lower bottom plate; contact points are at the bottom of the external resonance chamber and abut against the top of the lower-layer elastic body; and connecting screws are connected between the upper and lower bottom plates.

A percussion instrument strike training applique is formed as a multi-layer removable sticker that covers a percussion instrument playing/striking zone. The multi-layer sticker has a detachable ink layer on a top surface of the applique that detaches when struck with a striking implement of the instrument. The detachment of the detachable ink layer from the striking surface of the instrument allows the percussion instrument players to assess their performance when they are not playing and are free to think critically and make adjustments.

The present disclosure relates to methods and devices for generating drum patterns. In one embodiment a method includes receiving a user generated input including a plurality of events during a time interval, and detecting the events. The method also includes analyzing the events to define a rhythmic pattern based on number of events detected, placement of each event in the time interval, and duration of the time interval. Each of the plurality of events may be classified into at least one type of drum pattern element and a drum pattern may be generated based on the rhythmic pattern to include a drum element for each event of the rhythmic pattern. In certain embodiments, pitch or tone of the events may be determined to classify events as components of a drum pattern. Processes and devices allow for professional sounding drum patterns to be output based on received input.

A signal output device comprising a housing, a fastener that attaches the housing to an object that includes a portion to be struck, an arm section attached to the housing, an extension section extending from the arm section and configured to contact the portion to be struck, a first sensor that detects vibration transmitted to the arm section and outputs a vibration signal representing the vibration, a second sensor provided on the housing and that detects vibration transmitted to the housing, and an output terminal that outputs the vibration detected by at least one of the first sensor or the second sensor.

A foldable music teaching device is disclosed. The music teaching device includes a plate. The plate includes a first plate, a second plate, and a third plate. The second plate comes in a rectangular configuration and acts as a center plate of the plate. Each of the first plate and the third plate comes in a semi-circular configuration and connects at either side of the second plate. Each of the first plate, the second plate, and the third plate includes zones for receiving magnetic pads. The plate includes legs/supports. The legs/supports help to position the plate at a height from the ground. The second plate presents a hinge plate. The hinge plate allows to position music notes over the second plate such that users stand surrounding the plate. The users view the music notes and use musical instruments to produce sound by hitting the musical instruments over the magnetic pads.
