ANALOG ELECTRONIC DRUM SET, PARTS FOR DRUM STICK, ANALOG ELECTRONIC DRUM SET AND FOOT-PEDAL UNIT

摘要

Percussion sounds and damped sounds from a first fundamental tone producing unit (100) provided to correspond to individual parts of a playing drum set are received by a microphone such as a pick-up microphone, and electric sounds from the microphone are tone-regulated by a tone regulating unit (26) with their analog sounds kept unchanged and digital conversion not involved. Then, a reproducing unit (34) reproduces the sounds based on the output sounds from the tone regulating unit (26). Because of the absence of such operations as digital conversion processing, signal transmission via a photocoupler or the like, and selection and reproduction of pre-recorded sounds, the player does not recognize the time lag between a striking operation and the production of a played sound and uses, as fundamental tones, striking sounds and damped sounds produced when the first fundamental tone producing unit (100) is struck, thereby enabling reproduction faithful to a delicate striking technique of the player.
