Robot Drum Company Hive Series
Inspired by natures most efficient structure, the honeycomb lattice covers every inch of the Hive shell. The intricate design isn’t just for looks; it’s a key part of the drum’s unique build and sound.
The Build
- CNC Machined Shell: 10-ply maple precision-machined with the intricate hexagonal Hive pattern.
- Mass Reduction: Strategic machining lightens the shell, lowering its fundamental resonant frequency to give you a deeper tone.
- Machined Vents: The Robot logo is machined directly through the shell, acting as vents that allow the drum heads to breathe freely, enhancing the drum’s response.
- Italian Leather Inlays: The Robot logo is laser-cut from high-quality Italian leather and meticulously hand-inlaid into the machined shell for a premium, custom look.
- Hardware Options: The Robot Lug One lugs are made from machined brass. These high-mass lugs provide damping to reduce shell resonance, giving you a more focused and EQ’d sound.
- Throw Off:Trick Drums GS007AM Multi-step Throw Off
- Hoops: This drum is fitted with brass triple flanged hoops.
- Evans Drum Heads: Every Hive Series drum comes equipped with Evans drum heads, trusted by drummers for their consistent quality and superior performance.
The Sound
- Deeper Fundamental: Experience a strong low-mid bloom that makes the drums sound bigger and fuller than their physical size.
- Quick-Speak Dynamics: The reduced inertia from the unique shell design means ghost notes and double strokes articulate effortlessly, giving you a highly responsive and dynamic playing experience.
