Five Drums in One: Zikit System with British Drum Co. | Snare Spotlight

We’re always excited to experiment with new developments in drum technology so when the opportunity came up to work with Zikit in demoing their unique system, we couldn’t wait to dive in. The idea of being able to access “presets” for five different snare drums simply by rotating a single lever was mind-blowing. While we’re demoing the system within a British Drum Co. Birch snare drum that’s available with the Zikit product pre-installed, you can also purchase the system an install it yourself on virtually any 14” snare drum.
