发明名称 Electronic percussion instrument with enhanced playing area
摘要 Electronic percussion instruments with enhanced playing areas and methods and systems for generating electrical signals in response to impacts to a playing surface are disclosed. A semi-permeable playing surface covering an acoustic noise reducing cavity of an electronic percussion instrument may receive an impact within a predefined impact region, and an electrical signal may be generated in response by an electromechanical sensor that senses the impact. In many instances, the generated electrical signal may be configured to be equivalent in magnitude to any other electrical signal generated by the electromechanical sensor, in response to any other received impact within the same predefined impact region.

主权项 1. An electronic percussion instrument comprising: an electromechanical sensor configured to sense an impact received within a predefined impact region of the semi-permeable playing surface, and to generate an electrical signal associated with the sensed impact, wherein the generated electrical signal is equivalent in magnitude to any other electrical signal generated by the sensor in response to any other received impact within the predefined impact region; an acoustic noise reducing cavity; and a semi-permeable playing surface configured to receive an impact, and comprising connected strands of ductile material covering the acoustic noise reducing cavity.
