Frequently Asked Questions
The liquid dampens some of the higher frequencies, creating a more sustained and shimmering tone, and slightly alters the attack.
While playable by anyone, the nuanced tones are best appreciated and controlled by more experienced percussionists who understand dynamics and articulation.
The Liquid Triangle generally produces a slightly quieter, more controlled sound than a solid triangle of the same size, though the sustain is considerably longer.
