ABSTRACT:
A percussion system for a percussion instrument, comprising: a cymbal or other percussion mechanism; an upright elongated support; a base frame from which the support extends upwardly; a drive linking system movable to actuate the sound generating mechanism; and a foot-operated pedal assembly. The pedal assembly actuates the sound generating mechanism through the drive linking system with the pedal assembly being selectively connected to the base frame in one of a play mode or a docking mode. In the play mode, the pedal assembly is connected in a horizontal orientation along a ground surface in which the pedal is adapted to actuate the sound generating mechanism, and in the docking mode the pedal assembly is connected to the base frame in a vertical orientation along the base frame whereby the pedal assembly is connected to a docking station for ease of storage and transport.
