A marching percussion bass drum carrier with revolutionary back support technology.
The Monoposto Bass Drum Carrier with ABS by Randall May is a new marching percussion solution designed for unrestricted movement and reduced physical strain. Featuring Randall May's innovative Articulating Back Support system and contour hinge, this Monoposto carrier transfers torque load away from the ab plate to its aluminum vest tubes for a stable feel during dynamic performances. Its auto-release mechanism also allows percussionists to quickly detach their instrument in seconds for instant relief after a performance.
The Monoposto Bass Drum Carrier's Articulating Back Support system utilizes adjustable, pivoting shoulder pads to redirect weight from the lower back and abdomen to the upper torso. This significantly decreases discomfort from extended rehearsals and performances, allowing percussionists to achieve their full creative potential without physical hindrance.
Featuring a pivoting bridge and hinge, the Monoposto carrier frame moves as percussionists do for complete freedom of motion. The hinge's range of rotation conforms to natural body movements, while the bridge transfers load away from the belly plate to produce a light, mobile feel. This combination of an unrestricted yet supported design allows performers to focus on their craft rather than discomfort from their equipment.
After an intense performance, the Monoposto carrier's auto-release feature enables percussionists to remove their drum in seconds without complicated adjustments or equipment removal. A single squeeze of the release mechanism detaches the drum from the carrier for fast pack-up, transport, and storage between performances. This also allows performers to quickly detach their drum if needed for solo features or visual elements within a performance.
With its range of adjustment and accommodation of various bass drum sizes, the Monoposto carrier suits percussionists of all body types for any application. Its adaptability to different performers and instruments makes it ideal for high school and college marching bands, drum corps, winter guards, and any other marching ensemble.
