TECHNIQUES FOR MAGNETICALLY MOUNTING A TRANSDUCER TO A CYMBAL AND RELATED SYSTEMS AND METHODS

摘要

According to some aspects, a cymbal system is provided, comprising a cymbal, and a vibrational transducer magnetically coupled to the cymbal, the magnetic coupling provided by at least one magnetic component on an upper side of the cymbal and at least one magnetic component on a lower side of the cymbal. According to some aspects, a method for transducing vibrations of a cymbal is provided, comprising magnetically coupling a vibrational transducer to a cymbal, the magnetic coupling provided by at least one magnetic component on an upper side of the cymbal and at least one magnetic component on a lower side of the cymbal.

1. A cymbal system comprising:
a cymbal; and a vibrational transducer magnetically coupled to the cymbal, the magnetic coupling provided by:
at least one first permanent magnet disposed on a lower side of the cymbal and attached to the vibrational transducer; andat least one second permanent magnet disposed on an upper side of the cymbal, the at least one first permanent magnet and at least one second permanent magnet being on opposing sides of the cymbal and being magnetically coupled to the cymbal, at least in part, by a magnetic force of attraction between the at least one first permanent magnet and at least one second permanent magnet that acts through the cymbal.
