Birch shells in combination with new innovative Sound Sustainer technology form the basis of a drum series with extraordinary sound characteristics. Together with exclusive matte lacquer finishes, a professional drum concept for live performance and studio recording was developed. Made in Germany.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eWhen SONOR designs drums, their intention is to continuously improve the acoustic quality in any given situation. For SQ1, SONOR worked closely with Chris Coleman and other SONOR artists in the development of this new drum series. The SQ1 series snare features the same advanced design technology as the shell packs.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe Shell choice for SQ1 was birch because of its characteristic high end frequencies and clearly defined low-end. In blindfold tests SONOR tried many different types of shell construction, from pure birch to hybrid versions. The pure birch shell came out as a clear winner in all test situations.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eWith the combination of the 100% Birch shell construction and SONOR's latest invention, the \"Sound Sustainer\" mounting solution you can feel the difference. The Sound Sustainer extends sustain, produces a clean overtone spectrum and a clearly defined fundamental tone compared to traditional mounting methods.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cb\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eBirch - The Secret Behind Acoustic Versatility\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/b\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eSQ1 drum shells are made of 100% European Birch. Because of its sound characteristics - balanced in low, mid and high - the Birch drum sound is very popular for studio recordings as well as live performances. When developing SQ1, Sonor tested several combinations of Birch-based shell materials. Sonor's conclusion was that pure Birch provided the most versatile sounding drum.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eSonor's unique CLTF \"Cross Lamination Tension Free\" and OSM \"Optimum Shell Measurement\" process (slightly narrowed outside shell measurement) provide excellent sustain and easy tuning.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cb\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eSound Sustainer - the Intelligent Drum Mount\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/b\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eFor decades Sonor has cooperated with scientific institutes to optimize the acoustic performance of their drums. Numerous pioneering concepts for the improvement of drum mounting systems have been developed. The new Sound Sustainer technology is based on concepts applied in the automotive industry. A 2-component connection (rubber to metal) enables complete isolation of the metal mount and the wooden shell. This guarantees a particularly long lasting and clean decaying sustain, not just for tom toms but also all floor toms in the SQ1 series.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cb\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eAnd The Sound Goes On\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/b\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe new Sound Sustainer technology enables complete isolation of the metal mount and the wooden shell.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cb\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eHear The Difference\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/b\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eAs a next step we wanted to find a drum mounting solution that would affect the resonance and sustain of a drum as little as possible while having a small footprint and great stability. Inspiration came from the automotive industry where vibration-control technology is used for engine mounting systems among others. What we developed was a unique concept of mounting toms and floor toms that ­integrates rubber insulation within the mount to avoid any shell-to-mount contact. Scientific re­search shows the considerable improvement in extended sustain compared to traditional mounting methods. This guarantees a particularly long lasting and clean decaying sustain.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cb\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eCLTF - Cross Lamination Tension Free\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/b\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eDrum shells need to act as solid acoustic unities as the foundation for a great drum sound. We use cross-laminated plies of birch to form a perfectly round shell with great stability. Each ply is laminated at a 90° angle to allow for a shell that is tension-free. Sonor's tension-free shells would their shape even if they were cut in half from the batter side to the resonant side.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cb\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eOSM - Optimum Shell Measurement\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/b\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eOur OSM shell construction (Optimum Shell Measurement) utilizes slightly undersized shell diameters to give the drum head the space to float freely, allowing unrestricted contact between the bearing edge and the drum head.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cb\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eSQ1 Look \u0026amp; Feel - Inspired By Classic Cars\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/b\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe colors and styles of legendary car classics were the inspiration for the color selection of the SQ1 series.
