The Mapex Saturn 22″ 4pc Shell Pack is a stunning professional-quality shell pack that is known for its unrivalled drum sounds. It offers a thrilling range of dynamics and tones. The Saturn Series, with its hybrid shell construction of maple and walnut, is known for its devastating attack and rumbling low-end. The addition of features from Mapex’s Black Panther Design Lab, such as SONIClear bearing edges and an air ventilation system, enhances the Saturn Series even further. Please note that hardware, snare drum, and cymbals are sold separately.
To create the Saturn Series drum shells, maple and walnut woods are fused together. Maple provides tonal versatility and warmth, while walnut brings fast attack and dark tones. This combination creates a truly dynamic sound that is perfect for any setting. The SONIClear bearing edges, a unique technology from Mapex, improve the contact between the drum head and shell, resulting in better shell vibration, greater resonance, and easier tuning. This bearing edge profile allows you to fully experience the sonic nuances of the wood blend.
The Saturn Series also features a SONIClear tom suspension system, which allows the toms to resonate with greater freedom. The low-mass holders preserve the vibrations from the heads and shells, resulting in a wide sonic range. The customised air flow system, known as Chamber Specific-Nodal Line Air Flow Venting, ensures that the bass drums and toms have optimal air hole placement to prevent interference with the overall resonance of the shells.
To further enhance the tonal resonance, Mapex’s Sonic Pedestal feet are used in conjunction with the TH800 SONIClear tom holders. These rubber feet prevent contact between the floor tom legs and the playing surface, eliminating vibration transfer and maximizing resonance. Every feature of the Saturn Series has been carefully designed and tested to empower your drums.
The configuration of the Saturn 22″ 4pc Shell Pack includes a 22″ x 18″ bass drum, 10″ x 7″ and 12″ x 8″ rack toms, and a 16″ x 14″ floor tom. It also comes with two TH800 tom holders.
