Features: The clay construction of LP Udu Drums is based upon centuries-old African traditions. The name “Udu” has been derived from the Nigerian Ibo language, meaning “pottery”. Each LP Udu Drum offers individual tonal values. They can be played by hitting any part of the drum with the palm of the hand or the finger tips. The textured surfaces provide additional tonal variations by creating rubbing sounds. Model: LP1400HG Manufacturer: LP

 Hadgini Udu, By

Verified Purchase(What’s this?)
This review is from: LP Udu Drum Hadgini
Well made…like any piece of pottery it is fragile. Be prepared to mic the drum to get good results. External mics are ok but it really takes internal, miniature mics to fully use this (and most others) to its potential. These mics and the associated electronics(preamp,EQ,amp,spkrs/headphones etc) could be a substantial investment. One good quality mic (you need two) can cost as much…even up to five times the cost of the Udu.(*see note) This is a very cool drum. The possibilities are endless. Once mic’ed the range of sounds and subtle nuances make it extremely addicting.
*Note: check out my reviews on 2000s wireless mic system and Behringer mixer. You need to adapt a bit for the mics, but for less than 0 I got good results! feel free to email me tl1255@yahoo.com for details. …and the beat goes on… 0 |
