Historical Context and Positioning in the Range
Within the REMO range, the Emperor series is a benchmark for drummers seeking more control and durability than a single-ply head, while maintaining warm musicality. The Ambassador remains a classic choice for a more open and versatile response, especially on the snare drum.
Who This Drum/Head Pack Is For
This Pro Pack is aimed at beginner to advanced drummers who want a reliable, powerful sound that is easy to tune. It is particularly suitable for styles requiring body and sustain: rock, pop, funk, metal (medium to low tunings), and live music where projection is essential.
Features and Innovations
The Emperor heads in this pack are made of 2 floating plies, each 7 mil thick, a construction designed to withstand heavy hitting, limit excessive overtones, and stabilize tuning. The sanded finish improves control and favors brush playing on the snare drum.
Sound Characteristics
With their two plies, the Emperors deliver a warmer and rounder tone, with a slightly softened attack and better-controlled sustain. The result: toms that "speak" immediately, with good density and solid projection without becoming overpowering.
The Ambassador 14" sanded head offers a more open and dynamic response, ideal for preserving the sensitivity and definition of the snare drum, while maintaining controlled feel thanks to the sanding.
