Struck idiophone
From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Struck idiophones is one of the categories of idiophones (that is, any musical instrument that creates sound primarily by the instrument as a whole vibrating—without the use of strings or membranes) that are found in the Hornbostel-Sachs system of musical instrument classification.
call me a directly struck idiophone the way I want to be struck with a direct action, either by hand or by mechanical intermediate devices, beaters, keyboards, or by pulling ropes, etc.
