Meet electroacoustics from RAV! The electroacoustic drum allows you to play with the headphones on, output sound to speakers and perform on stage without a microphone. The instrument opens up wide possibilities for creativity. You can use various additional effects that will only enhance the rich sound of the steel tongue drum.
G Pygmy (G2 C3 D3 D#3 G3 A#3 C4 D4 F4) has its roots in the African savannas, where wild tribes use their music to connect with the gods. Your listeners will definitely feel something mystical.
The melodies composed with the G Pygmy are full of heavy rainy clouds and the smell of ozone before a storm. This RAV drum is made of 1.5 mm special steel that provides a deep acoustic sound with a great number of harmonious overtones to this musical instrument.
The main purpose of electroacoustics is undoubtedly the direct sound output to the speakers. Acoustic instruments equipped with piezo sensors can easily connect the amplifier through a standard wire without needing an additional microphone. Piezo elements are located in the body of the instrument under each tongue. Due to this, the sound of each tongue is reproduced accurately.
The electroacoustic steel drum opens up a wide range of creative possibilities. You will be able to play loudly to a large audience without fear of external noise. You can record tracks directly to the recorder, both via cable and microphones, if you want to combine RAV Vast and the sounds of the environment. It is a great chance to get into sound design. Yes, a RAV Vast already has an inimitable sound, but by using effect pedals, processors or plugins you will only enrich the palette. For example, reverb or delay will add to the scale and profoundness of the original sound.

Please note
We admit that it was not easy to connect RAV Vast and electroacoustics. The thing is that the RAV Vast drum is a unique instrument, with its particularities. The hardest part was to position and set up the sensors correctly. All the details were taken into account – their number, size and suitable location. We needed high-quality sound copying, as close as possible to the authentic sound. It took us six months of hard work and constant experiments. And our talented engineers managed it! The built-in sensors capture the beauty of the RAV while removing the unpleasant metallic twang. Now musicians can record their melodies without fear of extraneous sounds.
The instrument requires a preamplifier to strengthen the signal. It is not included with the instrument, and must be purchased separately if you want to get a line-level signal. It can be a preamp in a sound card, a preamp in a zoom, or a pedal-type preamp. You can connect RAV Vast electroacoustics to, for example, a guitar combo amplifier without a preamp, but the sound will be weaker in this case. We recommend using any preamps or mixers of your choice. The main thing is to have the possibility of frequency adjustment.
