The drums form the foundation of the groove and rhythm. Imagine three drum sets in a single room with excellent acoustics and you will intuitively understand the concept behind the Synchron Power Drums. It is the explosion of pure energy when powerful grooves are played "synchronously" on three different percussion batteries and interact with each other in the great hall of the famous Synchron Stage Vienna. Here you can really let the pig out and enrich your music with powerful intensity and pulsating energy.

For the recordings of the Synchron Power Drums, a Tama Star (2017) was placed in the middle, flanked by a Tama Superstar (1972) on the right and a Sonor Acryl Champion Vintage (1975) drum set on the left. You have the option of playing all three kits together or individually - in their actual recording position in the hall or in each case centered in the middle position. The three instruments were deliberately chosen in such a way that they represent the respective sound aesthetics of different epochs of recording technology in order to offer you the greatest possible tonal range.

3 drum sets - 1 room sound

The Sonor Acryl Champion Vintage Kit (left) delivers the authentic sound of the 70s and was played by legends like John Bonham, Ringo Starr, Karen Carpenter, Nick Mason and Keith Moon. The shells made of acrylic fibers ensure a louder, more powerful sound compared to wooden shells. The well-tuned snare drum (also made of acrylic fiber) delivers a sustaining, very precise and loud sound.

The Tama Superstar (right) was particularly popular in the 1980s. The birch drum shells provide a deep, warm, dry and powerful sound that is almost characteristic of every disco and rock production. Interestingly, it was Billy Cobham and Elvin Jones who were the first to adopt the versatile sound of these instruments in their personal style.
