Elephant Drum

I came up with an idea for a drum you could stand on and play and my dad helped me bring it to life. I need to finish it and make it pretty but so far here it is… I am calling it the “Elephant Drum.” It is made from reclaimed doors. I added some compression and reverb to it so you can experience it as if you were in the room with me. It’s about 30” and though I eq’d it a bit, trust me it has a huge sound with lots of potential! The tone you are hearing is coming from the combination of the wood and the drum underneath. The drum really sings when you hit the wood. Sound library coming soon. 😇🙏🏽🎶 🐘

That's dope

Thank you!

[@KaliaTula]

So many possibilities 🎶

[@whoathatcombo]

Genius I need one now

[@michaelvance1838]

That looks so empowering to play. Would be great for all kinds of things: drum circles, trance work, stage/street performance, festivals. You might want to look into manufacturing and patenting if that is your vibe (I’m assuming you came up with the idea).

You probably can do some sick pen beats on it

Is there a mic with some reverb, or is all that resonation from the drum?

[@WilliamJohnsonmusic]

There is a mic under there and some reverb yes. There is quite a big sound from it without it however.

@@WilliamJohnsonmusic thank you for sharing the information. I love the sound of this.
