The base and bowl of the Revolution Series Timpani easily separate without tools, making these the only truly portable high-quality timpani available. When separated from the base, each Revolution timpani maintains tension and has a range of a 5th using the hand fine tuner feature. The base itself folds and locks and can be easily carried away using the built-in handle. The oversized double locking swivel casters combined with the permanently installed locking third wheel assembly on the pedal help the Revolution timpani glide with fingertip effort. The patented internal tensioning star automatically divides the tensile load evenly over the instrument’s tension rods. This means your timpani head is always equally in balance giving you a perfect and even tone. Now replacing or tuning a timpani head couldn’t be simpler!
The Balanced Action Spring Mechanism guarantees smooth and easy pitch changes throughout the entire range. The pedal’s spring and rim tension are balanced so that the set pitch is maintained even when the player removes his or her foot from the pedal. To reduce problems that similar systems on the market have, Adams engineers developed a patented technique that produces a much more stable system.
The finetuner allows optimum usage of an extremely wide pitch range of greater than 1 octave (per timpani) with the pedal mechanism attached. Without the pedal attached, the range of the fine tuner is a fifth. This inventive fine tuner makes the Revolution Timpani truly unique. The height of the Adams Revolution Timpani is adjustable from 84cm to 94cm. To adjust the height of the timpani you must unscrew the screw on the right side of the undercarriage two turns (with the included screwdriver only). Once the screw is loosened, you can adjust the height by turning the kettle round. Ideal for younger musicians and for stage leveling.
The in-house designed polishing machine eliminates the inconsistencies of handwork. The machine perfectly recreates the technique of experienced craftsmen in both, the hand hammering and hand polishing process. Adams Remo Renaissance hazy timpani heads with aluminum insert ring boast a warm, dark, focused sound with full-range projection and stable pitch.
