I was unexpectedly drawn in to cynthia yeh’s pace and articulate descriptions, of elements that help shape the bass drum’s attack, presence, player comfort, in the music and the space. Great insights for this amateur. Thanks!

Thanks for checking it out!

Cynthia, you are one of my heroes and my inspiration!

[@SteveWeissMusic]

Thanks for watching!

We need to HEAR the sounds produced by the mallets!

It would be a better video if you actually used the mallets in a demo.

As much as we would have loved to hear Cynthia’s incredible playing, the space we filmed in was not conducive to an accurate depiction of the different models individual nuances…that said we didn’t want to miss an opportunity to hear about the design process and her detailed depiction of each mallet. Catch her at PASIC 2023 if you’re attending to listen to her crush it with these mallets on Bass Drum!
