SKIN DRUM MUTE sanded CIRCULAR EXTERNAL INTERCHEANGEABLE

I bought this for my skin very special bass drum 22 "a month ago.

The first thing that stands out is the look of the skin with a black outer circle (on the bat struck by the bass drum so). This feature is explained by the fact that we can interchange the 'mute' circular foam that slips under the black circle, without removing the skin.

Before using it, I played mostly on Evans Genera G2 or G3. I also tried a transparent Aquarian superkick II, whose sound was really excellent (power!) But has relented.

Sound & Settings

The difference with these skins is that it sounds much better! Indeed, it takes a sound that does not compromise after adjustment: no choice between power and musicality, it was both! To return to the setting, that is why the 9 instead of 10 side note, because you have to spend some time (more than a superkick or sound is there right away) but it ' G2 is easier than, for example.

I tend to reach more than superkick II: it has the same explosive power but the grain of the sound is more musical (to me). To sustain and response, we can change the circular muted since the manufacturer provides an additional less dense, for interchange with the initial climb, all in 10 seconds flat!

I sanded to have taken a warmer sound, it is very deep (which is rare when you have a skin that 'slap' well), I imagine that the transparent version resembles more of a superkick II (which really had the inspiration).

The value for money

I'll see if it lasts a long time to speak but at the other Evans skins (quite expensive so). I added the patch for Evans double-pedal to increase the life span, the attack is a bit less aggressive but still very powerful. I play rock, funk, fusion, metal and it sounds for all (not for jazz anyway), I do not really regret this test (winner).
