Adams  REVOLUTION Timpani
Adams are very proud to present the brand new REVOLUTION range of timpani.  An innovative  pedal system  keeps the Adams REVOLUTION timpani always perfectly in balance.

 The new, REVOLUTION timpani is the very first Balanced Action System timpani on which you can use natural calf skins. A number of patented developments make this timpani a world leader. 

Patented tension mechanism

Adams have developed a system that automatically spreads the tension of the head over all of the tuning screws. This means your timpani head is always equally in balance giving you a perfect and even tone. Now replacing or tuning a timpani head couldn't be simpler!

Patented height adjustable system

This new system allows you to adjust your timpani height (the complete new balance system included) from 80 to 90 cm. Ideal for younger musicians.

Patented (fine)tuning

The new fine-tuner allows you to play over 1 octave per timpani. with or without the pedal being fitted. This allows greater flexibility and  you can play e.g. a low G on both your 29”and 26” timpani.

Patented Balanced Pedal  system

The new Balanced Pedal Action  that Adams have developed, makes it  possible, for the first time, to play with natural skins on a balanced action system timpani.

Patented Un-coupling System and Frame Folding System

These new systems make the  Adams REVOLUTION timpani very easy to transport. With one simple click you take off the kettle. As each timpani is fitted  with a fine-tuner as standard, it is also possible to play the timpani without the pedal mechanism. Ideal for Baroque music when calf heads are fitted.

After placing the kettle back on the frame again, it is locked  by pushing the pedal down and you can play with the pedal again.

The complete frame of the Adams Revolution timpani  folds together making  this timpani even easier to transport. An integrated handle makes this folded frame  very easy to carry by hand.

Available in Fibreglass, Copper and Hand-hammered copper bowls.

With the introduction of this new timpani,  Adams  once again shows they lead the field in timpani development. The Adams REVOLUTION  timpani is available from September 2008.
