Historical Context and Positioning in the Range
This conversion set follows the logic of modern practice solutions: preserving the feel of an acoustic drum kit while drastically reducing volume, to play at home, in the studio, or backstage, without sacrificing playing gestures.
Who This Drum/Conversion Set Is For
Ideal for drummers from beginners to advanced who want to work on technique, endurance, and precision at low volume. Suitable for all styles (rock, pop, metal, funk, jazz) whenever you seek maximum sound control.
Features and Innovations
The mesh heads replace your standard heads to reduce impact and limit projection, while the cymbal dampeners lower volume and stabilize the attack. The set allows you to keep your shells and hardware, maintaining your playing references.
Sound
With mesh heads, the drum kit becomes a working surface: the attack is drier, sustain is greatly shortened, and volume is reduced. The cymbal dampeners reduce harsh frequencies and shorten resonance, resulting in a much more discreet and controlled sound.
