Frequently Asked Questions

The Stage Master hardware is a step above basic, but expect to replace individual components if you play aggressively or transport the kit frequently.
Yes, the Omnisphere system is designed to be adaptable, allowing for a good range of tom sizes and angles to suit your preferred configuration.
