General MIDI Percussion Key Map
On MIDI Channel 10, each MIDI Note number ("Key#") corresponds to a different drum sound, as shown below. GM-compatible instruments must have the sounds on the keys shown here. While many current instruments also have additional sounds above or below the range show here, and may even have additional "kits" with variations of these sounds, only these sounds are supported by General MIDI.

打擊樂器的範例
實體打擊樂器:包山包海、俯仰拾得
除了以上 GM 與各民族固有打擊樂器,實體打擊樂器可謂:包山包海、俯仰拾得,亦即任何物件均可作為打擊樂器,甚至自己打自己,如【彈指】,也是打擊樂器。
各種實體打擊樂器,還可以繁衍成家族。

打擊樂術語
Attack : The volume and intensity exuded by a drum when the stick or beater first comes in contact with the head
Bass drum : Usually the largest drum in the set with sizes usually in the range 18"-24". The bass drum is played by a foot pedal with a beater generally striking the middle of the head to create a staccato "thud" sound; in popular music the bass drum is typically played on the first and three beat of a four-beat measure to contrast with the snare drum playing on the second and fourth beats; also known as a "kick drum"
Bell : The center portion of a cymbal that is higher pitched and distinct; typically only a few inches wide; often the bell of the ride cymbal is played on a chorus to raise the intensity of a song
China/Chinese Cymbal : A cymbal struck in a similar manner to the crash, but achieving a harsh, "trashier" sound that helps create a discordant moment in the music; often placed upside down, sizes range from 14" – 22" or higher, but average sizes are 16" – 18"
Conga : A common hand drum native to Latin music that has increasingly been adopted into popular music and culture, the conga can be played to acheive several different tones; often mistaken with its younger brother, the "bongo," congas are much larger, averaging a 30" height and three different widths: quinto (11"), conga (11 3/4"), and tumba or tumbadora (12 1/2"), and is made from wood or fiberglass
Crash : A cymbal that is struck to create an explosive "crash" sound for emphasis or to indicate a transition in a song; sizes range from 13" – 20" or even higher, but average sizes are 16" – 18"; not uncommon to see two or more in a drum set
Djembe : A hand drum native to Africa that has two or more distinct tones – a high pitched "crack" toward the outer rim and a boomy bass tone toward the center; ranges in size from 14" – 20" with the average being 14" or 16"; authentic djembes, worn strapped to the body (or more recently attached to a stand), come with animal-skin heads, but those produced by major companies (the most prolific of which being REMO) use man-made materials
Double bass pedal : A bass drum pedal that has two beaters, each operated by a different footboard; commonly used in heavy metal and other types of fast and loud music, although double bass is being commonly absorbed into various types of popular music as time progresses; used to play more bass drum notes faster than would be achieved by a single pedal
Floor tom : A larger, deeper drum usually held up by three metal "legs;" often set to the right of the bass drum; also known simply as "floor"
Hi-hat : The hi-hat is used the most frequently out of all the cymbals; it is comprised of two small cymbals – the bottom turned upside down on a stand and the top
Kick drum : see bass drum
Key : A universally-sized, small metal tool used to crank lug (tuning) screws in order to tighten or loosen the head; also used to tighten or loosen parts of hardware
Kit : A synonym for drum set, "drum kit"
Lug : The pieces of hardware typically drilled into the drumshell that receives the "lug screw" that is pulled threw the drum rim; ultimately the end part of the mechanism that holds the head in place
Pedal : A mechanism operated by stepping down on a footboard to propel a beater toward the head of the bass drum to create a note. Known as bass drum pedal, bass pedal, or kick drum pedal; also see Double bass pedal
Piccolo : A snare drum with a shallow depth, often no larger than 3" – 4.5". Width may still be as large as 14"
Popcorn snare : A newer-style snare drum with a quick, high-pitched note. Known for its attack and volume
Rack tom : see tom tom; also referred to as "rack," but not to be confused with a rack system that holds drum and cymbal arms
Ride cymbal : Typically the largest cymbal on a set, it is tapped to create a "ping" sound; often utilized to raise the intensity of a song on choruses or bridges; ranges in size from 18" – 24" with the average and most common being 20"
Set : A synonym for drum set or drum kit
Shell: The drum itself, minus any hardware, rims or heads; typically comprised of maple, birch, mahogany or some other type of wood
Snare : The primary component of the drum kit, the snare is probably the most played drum of the whole set. It achieves the "crack" sound that, in popular music, is usually played on the second and fourth beat of a measure. The average snare is 14" wide, although 12 & particularly 13" drums are becoming increasingly prevalent as main snares. Depths fall generally in the ranges 3"– 4-5" (called a Piccolo), 5" – 5.5" (standard), and 6" – 12" (deep). Average depth is 5" – 6.5"
Splash : A smaller version of a crash cymbal used for different types of emphasis; ranges in size from 6" – 12"
Spurs : The two side "feet" on a bass drum that keep it stabilized on the floor and raised just slightly off the ground; these are typically loosened and placed closer in to the drum when moving the bass drum
Sustain : How long the drum resonates after the head is struck
Tom tom : Drums that are normally seen mounted above the kick drum usually with head sizes in the ranges 6" - 18." Typically used for fills or patterns; also known as "rack toms"
Throne : The seat or stool on which a drummer sits; also known as "drum throne"
Trap set : An older term for "drum set," rarely used anymore
