Abstract

The present invention relates to a musical instrument with a membrane, for example a drum, of the type of those comprising a device producing electrical signals which are representative of the movement of the membrane. The instrument which is the subject of the present invention is characterised in essence by: - a first means carried by the membrane and making the same movement as the latter, and whose movement causes the variation of a magnetic field pre-established at the site where a second means sensitive to the said variation is located; - a second means sensitive to the variation of the magnetic fields producing electrical signals representing the said variation. f
