Meinl ID4BKO

Este udú (ibo drum) de Meinl, está muy bien. Tiene varios sonidos repartidos por toda la superficie, de graves a agudos. Incluye en el pack, el soporte en forma de disco de espuma, perfecto para apoyar en la mesa o en el suelo. El único problema que le veo es que el agujero para poner un micrófono es demasiado pequeño y se necesita un modelo de micrófono especial para que pueda caber en el pequeño agujero del cuello del instrumento.
También se puede llenar parcialmente (máximo hasta el agujero principal) para descubrir sonoridades nuevas con el movimiento de vaivén del líquido contenido.

The possibilities of sound in this drum is very broad. But its main feature which I love - it is a deep, hypnotic bass. At home recording as a hook I use it mainly just as a bass instrument.
This model of the drum is made of fiberglass. The apparent advantage of fiberglass is its strength, allowing the drums to do with thinner walls and to achieve a more powerful and confident sound in the game. In addition, fiberglass weigh less and you are not forced to worry about accidental bumps during transport.
There is also an interesting technique of playing when the properties of the cavity changes with the help of water poured into the pot. This drum takes a truly mystical sound with water inside. Due to the greater density fiberglass drum gives more responsive to changes in the level of water in the cavity, opening the almost fantastic possibilities of the instrument.

Having read the numerous five-star reviews of this product, I was very excited about receiving it. And while the instrument looks quality to the naked eye, I found it to be lacking in many areas.
One of the reasons that I bought this was that I figured fibreglass would be much tougher than ceramic or clay, and thus the udu would last much longer. However, I had neglected to think about the most important factor with any instrument – the sound. The instrument sounds awful to my ear. It has an almost plastic sound to it (which is understandable I guess) and has very poor resonance and a disappointing bass. As a result, it was not at all fun to play.
While the finish looks good from the outside, if you hold it up to a source of light and look inside, there are several random patches where the material is quite thin, and others where it is thicker.
It also has a terrible, chemical smell which adds to the feeling that you are playing a lump of plastic.
So, to sum up: Robust, but sounds rubbish and smells just as bad.
