Drummers are required to learn the correct stroking order to play drums efficiently. However, general musical scores for drums do not indicate the annotation which drummers use to stroke each drum with a left hand or a right hand. Therefore, drum teachers have to handwrite such annotation to musical score or use the soft application. There is not musical score generation system for drums that indicates hitting hands. In this research, we proposed the system that generates musical score that indicates the hitting hand for drum performance. Our proposed STICK TRACK recognizes the hitting hand on the basis of the data of a gyro sensor that are embedded in the drumsticks and MIDI message from an electronic drum. We constructed the prototype system and evaluated its effectiveness.
