General Description

From the factory this unique drum (by Meinl) features a rawhide playing surface, a hole in the side, and an extra thin bottom that can be used as a third playing surface. The shell is constructed from shock resistent fiberglass.

The air chamber is very easy to control and has a very nice warm bottom end to it. With proper technique and practice any percussionist can and will open their ears to endless possibilites. And additionally this instrument is GREAT for polyrhythms.

There is a hole for a microphone in the side of the shell. This can be used for street performance and busking. For stage work you'll want to mic the Udu as demonstrated in the photos above.

Brane Powered

Each Udu we sell is outfitted with a full accompaniment of CQR Crystal Quantum Radio devices -- three in total. These help the drummer open the space creating a fully functional vortex -- perfect for invocational drumming.

One word of advice, don't let the name Tri Drum mislead you. As you experiment you will find dozens of completely different sounds in this instrument.

Accessories

The MEINL Bag fits this Tri-Drum perfectly. It is an excellent solution for storage or transporting these amazing instruments.

The MEINL Ibo Holder securely supports most common ibo drums in a comfortable position while enabling you to play the ibo with both hands.
