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.

Provision of a piezoelectric element which uses a lightweight and flexible electret material and an electrode layer which is also lightweight, has high conductivity and good flexibility to easily receive electrical signals from an electret, and has good durability. Additionally, provision of a musical instrument provided with such a piezoelectric element. A piezoelectric element comprising an electrode layer (B) on at least one surface of an electret material (A) having pores inside, wherein a porosity of the electret material (A) is 20 to 80%, the electrode layer (B) contains 20 to 70 mass % of a carbon fine particle, and a thickness of the electrode layer (B) is 2 to 100 μm.

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.

This device for controlling feedback of an electronic percussion instrument includes an acquisition part that acquires a feedback signal of a musical sound of the electronic percussion instrument emitted through an amplifier and a speaker, and a processing circuit that performs uncorrelated processing on the feedback signal on the basis of information indicating a control amount, and outputs a signal after the uncorrelated processing to the amplifier.

A playable, removable cover for use while playing an electronic cymbal is disclosed. The cover comprises an opening configured to enable a connector to be coupled to the electronic cymbal, The opening is located on a top of the electronic cymbal when the cover is installed on the electronic cymbal. The cover also comprises a plurality of seams. The plurality of seams are located underneath the electronic cymbal when the cover is installed on the electronic cymbal. The cover is made of a material that comprises elastic characteristics, which minimizes the creation of air gaps formed under the cover and enables one or more elements of the electronic cymbal to be delineated.

A sound apparatus includes a piezoelectric device, a vibration member connected to the piezoelectric device, a first magnet connected to the piezoelectric device, and a second magnet facing the first magnet, which can readily realize a desired frequency characteristic.

The electric guitar contains at least one pickup in a recess on the guitar body. This pickup can be installed in a mounting frame and has electrical contact points which lead via a cable to the output port on the guitar body. The pickup has a fixing plate on its rear side, which is screwed onto the height adjuster of the pickup via a threaded bush at a variable distance from the base plate of the pickup. It contains spring-loaded pins which are electrically connected to the coils of the pickup. The fixing plate can be inserted without tools from the rear of the guitar body into a recess in the pickup frame and removed again from the pickup frame without tools. When the pickup is inserted, the pins on the fixing plate are connected to the electrical contact points on the mounting frame and the fixing plate is held in place on the mounting frame by means of permanent magnets.

A sound pickup for a stringed instrument, the sound pickup including a housing arranged at a body of the stringed instrument below strings, wherein the housing includes at least one magnet enveloped by a coil so that a magnetic field is generatable by the at least one magnet, wherein the coil is electrically connected with at least one amplifier and with at least one speaker so that a movement of the strings in the magnetic field generates an electrical current in the coil, wherein the sound pickup includes an arrangement configured to adjust the magnetic field of the magnet which causes an adjustment of sound characteristics of the instrument.

An electronic percussion instrument includes a body having a top opening and an internal support area, and a drumhead having a striking surface and a drumhead bottom surface opposite thereto, the drumhead is stretched over the top opening of the body and is configured to receive a percussion strike thereon, and at least one peripheral sensor disposed on the internal support area of the body, and at least one rising element configured to be flexible and disposed on the internal support area of the body, and a peripheral carrier, adapted to receiving vibrations from the periphery of the drumhead, the peripheral carrier is supported by the at least one rising element such that a pressing force is formed for setting a top circumferential edge of the peripheral carrier in contact with the drumhead bottom surface.

The disclosure provides an electronic hi-hat and an operating method of the electronic hi-hat that can improve the feeling at the time of hitting. Since an edge portion of a bottom frame is formed in a flat plate shape, the weight of an outer edge portion of the bottom frame can be reduced. As a result, even if a hit top cymbal comes into contact with the bottom frame, the weight of the outer edge portion of the bottom frame is less likely to hinder the swinging (displacement caused by the hit) of the top cymbal. Therefore, the feeling at the time of hitting the top cymbal can be lightened, so that the feeling at the time of hitting can be improved.
