Key Information About the EVANS REMAD Attenuation Device
- External mounting around the port for bass drum resonant heads.
- Additional harmonic control for a cleaner attack and improved definition.
- Removable foam ring for fine-tuning the attenuation.
- Compatible with 4-inch (10.2 cm) mic ports.
Historical Context and Positioning Within the Range
Inspired by the legendary
EVANS EMAD system, the
REMAD transfers the brand's expertise into an external attenuation solution dedicated to ports. It is part of the EVANS accessory range designed to optimize bass drum sound capture and control.
Target Audience
Ideal for drummers of all levels as well as sound engineers, both live and in the studio. Particularly suited to styles requiring precise striking and focused low end: rock, pop, metal, funk.
Features and Innovations
The ring attaches externally by surrounding the 4-inch port; the removable foam allows instant adjustment of the attenuation level. Installation is quick and non-invasive, without altering the tuning of the head.
Sound Characteristics
The REMAD reduces the harmonics of the resonant head, concentrates the low-frequency spectrum, and highlights the beater attack. By removing or adding the foam, you can shift from a more open sustain to a tighter punch, depending on the room and the mix.
