The Porter & Davies BC2 drum throne will change your drumming experience forever. When you're performing and you can't hear yourself, you play harder, lose dynamics, have trouble staying in the pocket, and get exhausted. But when you sit on this innovative drum throne, its built-in amplified Tactile Generator Monitor System transmits the sound of your drums to your inner ear through your bones, so you feel it in your whole body. Butt-kicking triggers and thumping subs can't give you a visceral experience like this. And if you play electronic drums, the BC2 will add an astonishing sense of realism to your performance. The BC2 has become a vital addition to Sweetwater Productions' drum room, and it will be a must-have addition to your kit!Porter & Davies BC2 Drum Throne at a Glance:

Tactile Generator Monitor System lets you feel and hear your drums
Although most of the sound we hear reaches our ears via airborne vibrations, we also perceive acoustic energy (especially low frequencies) through bone conduction. Utilizing this principle, the Porter & Davies BC2 drum throne transmits your drum sounds to your inner ear through your pelvis, spine, and skull, letting you feel and hear their tone, intricacies, and impact internally. This isn't like the feeling you get when vibrations hit your skin (such as from a large subwoofer). That's external. This actually happens inside of your body, for an immersive, visceral experience unlike anything you've ever felt before. In fact, the BC2 is so sensitive, you'll even be able to feel ghosted double-stroke snare rolls!Improves your feel and dynamics by lowering stage volume
Rather than forcing you to rely on wedges or subs that operate at dangerously loud volumes, the Porter & Davies BC2 drum throne lets you hear and feel the placement and balance of every drum stroke, improving your feel and dynamics, all while letting you monitor at a safe volume or with in-ear monitors (or no monitors). Even in situations when you need to play quietly, the BC2 gives you a feeling of security, keeps you in the pocket, and gives you the confidence you need to dig in without holding back. And because this happens inside of your body, nobody else can hear it, making the BC2 suitable for both loud and quiet stages, as well as in the studio. On top of that, the BC2 is a must-have add-on for electronic drums, alleviating that disconnected feeling and providing you with a whole new level of realistic playability.Integrates with your sound system to maximize your experience
The Porter & Davies BC2 drum throne is a two-unit system consisting of the Engine - a unit that contains an amp, preamp, inputs, outputs, protection circuitry, and volume and tone controls - and the throne top. Setup is a breeze - you simply set up the throne, put a mic in your kick drum, connect the mic to the BC2, connect the supplied speakON cable, then turn the BC2 on. Next you feed in your toms and snare drum, (or bass guitar or keyboard, if you're feeling creative) thanks to the BC2's line input. There's also a mic output that can send your kick drum's signal to a mixing desk while leaving it completely unaffected by the BC2's controls.Porter & Davies BC2 Drum Throne Features:
