A drumming system comprising: a first percussion instrument ; a second percussion instrument ; and an inserting/retracting mechanism operably connected to the first percussion instrument and configured to move the first percussion instrument along an axis relative to the second percussion instrument from a retracted position to an inserted position and from the inserted position to the retracted position, the inserting/retracting mechanism comprising: a motor ; an input device operably coupled to the motor and configured to receive operation instructions corresponding to moving the first percussion instrument relative to the second percussion instrument from the retracted position to the inserted position or from the inserted position to the retracted position, and to generate an operation signal based on the operation instruction; a feedback mechanism operably coupled to the motor and configured to obtain position information of the inserting/retracting mechanism and generate a feedback signal representative of the position information; and a controller operably coupled to the input device, the motor, and the feedback mechanism, the controller configured to actuate the motor based on the operation signal and the feedback signal; and wherein the inserted position corresponds to a position where a majority of a playing surface of the first percussion instrument faces or vertically overlaps a majority of a playing surface of the second percussion instrument. a first percussion instrument ; a second percussion instrument ; and an inserting/retracting mechanism operably connected to the first percussion instrument and configured to move the first percussion instrument along an axis relative to the second percussion instrument from a retracted position to an inserted position and from the inserted position to the retracted position, the inserting/retracting mechanism comprising: a motor ; an input device operably coupled to the motor and configured to receive operation instructions corresponding to moving the first percussion instrument relative to the second percussion instrument from the retracted position to the inserted position or from the inserted position to the retracted position, and to generate an operation signal based on the operation instruction; a feedback mechanism operably coupled to the motor and configured to obtain position information of the inserting/retracting mechanism and generate a feedback signal representative of the position information; and a controller operably coupled to the input device, the motor, and the feedback mechanism, the controller configured to actuate the motor based on the operation signal and the feedback signal; and a motor ; an input device operably coupled to the motor and configured to receive operation instructions corresponding to moving the first percussion instrument relative to the second percussion instrument from the retracted position to the inserted position or from the inserted position to the retracted position, and to generate an operation signal based on the operation instruction; a feedback mechanism operably coupled to the motor and configured to obtain position information of the inserting/retracting mechanism and generate a feedback signal representative of the position information; and a controller operably coupled to the input device, the motor, and the feedback mechanism, the controller configured to actuate the motor based on the operation signal and the feedback signal; and wherein the inserted position corresponds to a position where a majority of a playing surface of the first percussion instrument faces or vertically overlaps a majority of a playing surface of the second percussion instrument. <EOS>
