Drum materials have changed, and the art of drumming
has also changed. It is more common
today
to fi
nd drums made from harder
woods and made to closer tolerances than ever in the
past. Similarly, drum head materials have
also evolved, which has resulted in drums having
more
sustain. This has led to more troublesome overtones, which can no longer be
controlled
by using the drum’s
internal muffl
er, since
manufacturers no longer build muffl
ers
into their
drums. It has
become necessary to search for new solutions to the problem of annoying
overtones and excess sustain.
This
situation led Palisso Percussion to develop the FLO-RING
for those drummers who want their drums to
sound great on stage and in the studio.
The
material used to make the FLO-RING is what separates it from other tone control
rings
currently on the market.
The FLO-RING is made from exceptionally thin and ultra-light
drumhead material, covered on the bottom
side with visco-cotton fl
ocking. Other tone
control
rings lack this soft side, and have a tendency to resonate with the head and
produce
an audible rattling
sound. The millions of soft, spiky fi
bers on the bottom side of the FLO-
RING
act as an absorber of the minor overtones, allowing the primary tonal signal of
the
drum to come through
brilliantly and completely, without the rustling or hissing associated
with traditional polyester dampening rings.
While this is especially important in studio
recordings
where microphones can easily pick up those unwanted and undesirable noises,
using the FLO-RING in a live situation
allows the drums to sound full and natural without the
use of excessive audio compression.
FLO-RINGS are durable and will outlast many
sets of drumheads. Their construction makes
them
resistant to the denting and deformations caused by accidental stick-strikes,
and their
lightness will not
decrease the dynamics of your drums.
Give
a set of FLO-RINGS a try, it’s the easiest and most cost-eff
ective way to improve the
sound of your drums. We are certain you will
love them!
