Provided is a drumstick being excellent in durability and enabling a drum performer to achieve a more sensitive performance with vibration transmitted to the drumstick. A drumstick includes: a first rod-like portion, which is made of a synthetic resin, and includes a tip and a shoulder; and a second rod-like portion, which is coupled to the first rod-like portion, and includes a grip, wherein the first rod-like portion has a cavity defined therein so as to extend along an axial direction and over an entire length of the first rod-like portion, and wherein the cavity is open to an outside at an opening portion formed at a distal end of the tip.

A drum pedal is characterized by including: a base part; a pair of support parts provided at the front side of the base part; a cam part that is axially coupled to the pair of support parts via a main shaft; a hitting part that is axially coupled to the pair of support parts via the main shaft and disposed to be adjacent to the cam part; a pedal part of which one end is coupled to the rear side of the base part and which is formed to extend in the direction of the front side of the base part; and a power transmission part that connects the cam part and the pedal part and rotates the main shaft and the cam part according to a load applied to the pedal part, wherein at least two different power transmission parts can be selectively coupled to the cam part.

A system and method for automatic drumming. A MIDI decoder (1) receives MIDI serial data in real-time, decodes said MIDI serial data to obtain playing instructions, and signals at least one actuator (2) to strike at least one drum according to said decoded playing instructions. User inputs for selecting the MIDI channel and assigning MIDI notes to drums may be provided. The intensity of percussion may be controlled by the MIDI velocity and may be overridden by the user at the MIDI decoder. The at least one actuator may employ a solenoid and comprises features to mitigate latency between the MIDI serial data received and the drum hit. The at least one actuator may comprise a clamping or securement means enabling fast and convenient repositioning thereof. The at least one actuator may comprise means for substitution of a percussion implement, such as a drumstick, brush, or mallet.
