The Emperor SMT is two plies, 7.5-mil Ebony over 5-mil clear. More material means more durability, a slightly shorter decay and more weight in the low end.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch2\u003eWhat Does the External Dampening Profile Do?\u003c\/h2\u003e\u003cp\u003eIt carries free-floating acoustic foam on the outside of the head, controlling high and mid frequencies while leaving deep low tones intact. Because it is external, the drum shell is not filled with muffling and keeps its full character.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch2\u003eIs It Suitable for Recording?\u003c\/h2\u003e\u003cp\u003eRemo positions the SMT range for both live and recording work. The controlled highs and mids with intact low end is exactly what a close bass drum mic wants.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch2\u003eWhy Remo\u003c\/h2\u003e\u003cp\u003eRemo has made drumheads in the United States since 1957, when Remo Belli replaced calfskin with Mylar and ended the problem that had defined drumming until then: a head that changed pitch with the weather. Every major head design since has come out of that company, and the Ambassador remains the most widely used drumhead in the world. Remo also builds world percussion, marching heads and the Acousticon shells used across its drum circle range.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Remo","offers":[{"title":"16\"","offer_id":44798679613491,"sku":"BB-1016-ES-SMT","price":60.95,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true},{"title":"18\"","offer_id":44798679646259,"sku":"BB-1018-ES-SMT","price":62.95,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true},{"title":"20\"","offer_id":44798679679027,"sku":"BB-1020-ES-SMT","price":67.45,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true},{"title":"22\"","offer_id":44798679711795,"sku":"BB-1022-ES-SMT","price":69.45,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true},{"title":"24\"","offer_id":44798679744563,"sku":"BB-1024-ES-SMT","price":72.45,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/1768\/9095\/files\/02075872_1z.jpg?v=1788120249","url":"https:\/\/www.victorymusical.com\/products\/remo-emperor-smt-ebony-bass-drumhead","provider":"Victory Musical Instruments","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
