Mapex Saturn Evolution Hybrid Straight Ahead 3-Piece Shell Pack in Piano Black

Released in NAMM 2020, the Mapex Saturn Evolution is packed with a bundle of new and old features that all drummers are sure to love! Mapex have added a revolutionary “Mapex Halo Mount” to all the Saturn Evolution toms that completely unlock the freedom of full resonance!Using a lateral “under lug-line” suspension system, this groundbreaking isolation mount, allows the shell the freedom to breathe, delivering a pure, open tone. This is done with minimal stiffness usually associated with under hoop mounting systems.

The Adjustment Knob acts as a built-in Equalizer that can slightly dampen the resonance of the shell, producing a tighter and quicker decay, or back it off for a wide, open tone. In the studio, this allows you to “pre-EQ” your drums before feeding them into your plug-ins.

he combination of a maple/walnut bass drum and birch/walnut toms is our bold interpretation of today’s modern drum sound. The birch toms deliver clear and punchy sounds in the high register while the maple kick produces a warm, round tone in the low end. The result is a redefined sonic identity that speaks to today’s music scene.
