An electronic drum system includes an electronic drum having a shell, a
drum head stretched across an opening of the shell, a vibration sensor
converting vibrations of the drum head to an electric signal and a damper
held in contact with the reverse surface of the drum head; when a drummer
strikes the drum head with a stick, the drum head is shaken, and
vibrations follow; the damper is held in contact with a certain area on
the reverse surface, and the shake and vibrations are propagated from
another area free from the damper to the vibration sensor; the shake is
surely propagated to the vibration sensor, and the vibrations are rapidly
decayed; for this reason, the vibration sensor exactly discriminates the
shake from the peaks of the vibrations, thereby preventing an electronic
sound generator from unintentionally repeated electronic beats.
