The Elgar Enigma Variations Core mallet (Enigma Core) is
specially designed to satisfy the two most requested effects
by conductors: that of using two English coins to roll on
the timpani with, and the sound produced when placing coins
on the head while rolling. The DS1-Enigma Core is constructed
of a thin steel washer (don’t worry, it won’t
hurt your heads at these volumes) stacked with felt washers
on top and bottom and felt on the other side. You can play
either a very closed roll or very open roll with the metal
side to simulate the coin effects, and then simply rotate
the mallets in the hand to play on the felt side.
About FREER Timpani Mallets
Like the Freer bass drum mallets, the timpani mallets
are constructed from the highest quality materials and are
covered with premium grade German and woven-wool felts. The
Freer 50/50 DS series mallets, new for 2005, are unique two-tone
mallets that use the Freer Double-Seam technology to provide
two sound options within the same mallet head—two great
sounds without the need for multiple mallets or awkward flips
and switches! |
