ABSTRACT:
When a beating force is applied to a beat plate having a magnet attached to the lower surface thereof, an output responsive to the strength and application speed of the beating force is produced in a sensing means comprised by a Hall element disposed below the magnet. The output is used for controlling an oscillation circuit for generating a percussion instrument sound signal and an output therefrom is converted into a percussion instrument sound by means of a speaker.
