KickPort Bass Drum Tone Enhancer

Named "Best In Show" at the 2009 Summer NAMM show, the KickPort is an innovation designed to improve the sound of any bass drum.
The KickPort is designed to allow optimum tone control, tuning, head selection and mic placement in any playing situation and to be quick and easy to install. It is destined to become an essential and standard part of the modern drumset.

The KickPort is designed to create a deeper, fatter yet more focused bass drum sound. In addition to traditional venting that allows the movement of the air in and out of the drum, the KickPort actually slows the air exiting the drum by restricting and compressing the flow of air through its tube, and then allows the rapid expansion or relaxation of the air through its flared opening, the company explains.

At the same time, The KickPort is designed to enhance the low frequencies and dampens the vibration of the head; reducing the need for inconsistent and often ineffective internal muffling or dampening materials. The cumulative effect of this natural tone control and sonic enhancement is a cleaner, more powerful sound with a lower fundamental frequency that can be felt and heard both by the listening audience and the drummer behind the kit, KickPort says.
