Abstract

This invention relates to a remote control system for a musical instrument or instruments. In particular the control system comprises at least one keyboard having a plurality of keys each coupled to means for sensing key operation and key velocity or force, a signal generator for producing a string percussing signal, transmission means for transmitting the signal to at least one remote instrument having a string percussing arrangement coupled to a receiver circuit in the instrument for receiving the string percussing signal, the arrangement being operable in response to the signal to produce an audible sound corresponding to the operation of the keyboard.
