    PRODUCT CATALOGUE WELCOME SOUND FIRST. It seems simple, but represents a unique approach to instrument design among drum manufacturers. Most drums have been constructed based on tradition and appearance, with some attention to the resulting sound through trial and error. Now, Mapex has reversed the process, utilizing the “Concept Hybrid” formula to start with the desired sound in mind. Leveraging their 30 years of drum making experience, the DESIGN LAB was created to develop the innovations required to bring these sonic concepts to life. The following pages allow you into the Design Lab, sharing all details about these inspiring instruments and the experience of making music with them. Are you ready to think differently about drum design? Be a part of something revolutionary? To be inspired to Play More? Ready for the Breakthrough?

    From the Archives As PAS celebrates its 50th anniversary, here’s a look back at some of the ads that appeared in Percussive Notes during the 1960s and ’70s. The Drums Unlimited Percussion Publications catalog was the definitive reference source for percussion solos, ensembles and method books in the 1970s and ’80s. See-through drumsets were big in the early to mid-1970s, but see-through marching drums never quite caught on.

They consist of a single head in a die-cast zinc or aluminum frame. Unlike most other drums, they have a variable definite pitch. Composers are known to write for them as tuned instruments, demanding specific pitches. Rototoms are often used to extend the tom range of a standard drum kit. They were invented by the drumhead company Remo. They can be tuned quickly by rotating the head, which sits in a threaded metal ring. Rotation raises or lowers the tension hoop relative to the rim, which increases or decreases the pitch of the drum by increasing or decreasing the tension of the drum head. Master James Holland, former percussionist of the London Philharmonic Orchestra, highly recommends them in his book "Percussion",[1] which is part of the Yehudi Menuhin Music Guides series. Rototoms are often used as a training substitute for timpani students, as they have a very similar sound, are not as loud and expensive as timpani, and do not require as much room space. A few drumming greats who used rototoms were Bill Bruford and Terry Bozzio. Roger Taylor of Duran Duran used rototoms extensively on their self titled debut album Duran Duran of 1981. Roger Taylor of Queen has used rototoms since the early 1970s most recently in the cover of "Let There Be Drums" on the Return of the Champions DVD and album.

    Troška Histrorie

    TROŠKA HISTORIE, NIKOHO NEZABIJE....... jak se říká "trocha historie nikoho nezabije" a je dobré vědět kdo nám ty kýble strouhá Leedy Drums Ulysses Grant Leedy začal svou kariéru počátkem devadesátých let devatenáctého století jako perkusionista v Indianapolis. Osobní založení a zájem vyrábět lepší nástroje ho však vedlo k tomu, že s podporou svých přátel a kolegů roku 1888 založil Leedy Drums Company a začal vyrábět své vlastní – nejprve stojany malých bubínku a posléze i samotné bubínky. Kredit mu vynesly zejména upravitelné malé bubínky (do té doby se SD pokládaly na židle nebo visely na popruhu. Rychlý úspěch vedl k výstavbě výrobny a k expanzi produktové linie zahrnující blány na bubny a rozmanité orchestrální perkusní nástroje a doplňky. Leedy rovněž začal prodávat své produkty ve velkém po celé zemi. V roce 1909, kdy svou společnost založili bratři Ludwigové, se právě oni stali agentem Leedy drums v Chicagu. Ludwigové později začali vyrábět své vlastní nástroje a Leedy drums přerostli. Ve dvacátých letech dvacátého století Leedy naplnil potřebu vlastního prodejního managementu a zaměstnal Georgie Waye, který měl svou vlastní společnost vyrábějící bicí v Kanadě. Mimo svých prodejních schopnosti měl Way i technické znalosti, které uplatnil při četných inovacích u Leedy drums, které jednou pro vždy změnily výrobu bicích. Zhoršující se zdravotní stav přinutil Leedyho svou společnost roku 1929 prodat. Novým majitelem se stal GC Bonn Manufacturing Co., jež později koupila i Ludwig drum company. Sled událostí, které odstartovala 2.světová válka vyústil v prodeji divize Leedy & Ludwig Drum zpět do rodiny Ludwigů. William F. Ludwig Jr. ze společnosti WFL drum a Bud Slingerland spojili své síly a odkoupili upadající Connův podnik.

Black Panther drums feature boldly unique shell formulas with specially designed bearing edge profiles to create distinctive tone and voice. With the Black Panther Series, Mapex speaks to the artistic side of every drummer by giving them drums that bring life to the sound they have only heard in their dreams. BLACK PANTHER DRUM COLLECTION the blaster Mapex launches the Black Panther Drum Collection with The Blaster. What makes the Blaster unique from all other Mapex Drums is the precise selection and combination of shell design, shell materials, hoop and drum heads. Mapex started with a thin traditional 5.1mm American maple shell, added a 3.4mm walnut reinforcing ring and a 5:5 bearing edge with a rounded back cut. This “sound shaping” process produces an extremely focused explosive maple sound with a beautiful dark walnut undertone. the velvetone Mapex has a long history of successfully combining different wood materials to make great sounding drum shells. Now Mapex has advanced this methodology with the Velvetone, which features a new maple and walnut shell formula. Rich, dark 3.4mm walnut plies at as a low-end buffer between warm interior and exterior maple plies. A specially selected 1:9 bearing edge allows the Remo® Ambassador Suede drumheads to resonate fully.
