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!
