Percussion Pipe Instrument

[M8 screw thread] the E-Percussion Module Mount by Alesis is the perfect part i was looking for....

[Straight] You may ask yourself (as I did) how to justify the price of this track vs old fashioned Schedule 80 Aluminum Pipe.� If you own a Grip Truck then no big deal, but if you drive a car well then ... The problem with regular pipe is the compromises you make in carrying pieces short enough to fit in your vehicle. I was considering just using shorter pieces of aluminum pipe with the "70ES Locking Splices" to join them together. That would require multiple pipes, multiple 70ES Splices, drilling a bunch of holes and buying a Carrying Case. At the end of the day, the "DIY" method would have been cheaper financially, but also cheaper performance wise, assembly wise and aesthetically. I decided to just get the Official Dana Dolly Track and I'm glad I did! It goes together quickly and seamlessly (very smooth rolling) better on both counts than the 70ES Splices would have been. Also, it looks much more professional than DIY Aluminum Pipe with holes drilled in the sides for the Splices. It packs up into a relatively small bag and is easy to throw in the trunk. It allows me to have a fairly long track run available for the client in case needed, something that wasn't possible with regular pipe.

[-84 dB ±3 dB] I use for orchestra percussion overhead and that do a great job bringing in everything from xylophone to triangle

[Music Rest] It's a good quality instrument that I like so much

[Tap Tempo] Can’t beat this little instrument for the money!

[Side Address] In my project studio I record various acoustic instruments such as guitar, upright bass and violin. I also record vocals and various hand percussion. I have traditionally used small condensers such as Neumann KM 184's and AKG C451-B's but was craving the sound that only a large diaphragm can deliver. I love AKG products especially those built in Vienna. So far have only used the 214 on vocals, acoustic guitar and middle eastern percussion and it more than met my expectations. I love the AKG sound. To me AKG's are not as transparent as Neumann BUT that is what I dig about it..it brings a bit of color and an openness. At the price point..this is a must have mic..you can never go wrong with AKG

[4.885 lb] Feels beefy. Fit my 1.5 pipe no problem.

[Jaw] The clamp provides security because it encloses entirely around a pipe. big fan.

[24" (61 cm)] Hey it's a metal pipe...what's to review? It does what it's supposed to, and it's solid.
