Good control of drumsticks is very important for achieving fast drumming and clear sound. It is well known that intentional use of the extensor muscle of the wrists is required to eliminate unnecessary strain. However, mastering this technique is generally difficult. No efficient and practical method, tool or system has been developed for training the extensor muscle for typical drumming performances. In this paper, we propose a novel system to support users by giving them a way to efficiently practice the intentional use of the extensor muscle in natural drumming. This system exploits the effect of insignificantly delayed auditory feedback: Drummers come to raise the sticks higher than usual when an approximately 20-msec delay is given between impact and sound, although they cannot perceive the delay. We conducted user studies and confirmed that the users could efficiently train the extensor muscle using the proposed system but felt no difference in performance from using a conventional drum.
