The Porter & Davies BC Gigster is an amplified Tactile Generator Monitor System which transmits the full bass drum signal and sound (or any other drum) physically up through the drum stool. This signal is registered mainly through bone conduction with all of the tone and intricacies of the bass drum sound and impact are felt and heard internally. This silent bass drum monitoring system allows you to feel, hear and experience your bass drum like you never felt or heard it before.
Ideal for use with in ear monitors, or in the studio, the Porter & Davies BC Gigster brings back the feel that you've been missing.
The Gigster is made from the same superior components as the BC2, and although it has slightly fewer features to meet its more affordable price point, it has similar power and performance, giving you great connectivity to your drum kit whilst playing and recording. Although Porter & Davies designed the new Gigster with the working musician in mind making it lightweight and ultra-compact, it is also the weapon of choice for many top pros who enjoy its extreme portability.
It is literally designed as a ‘plug in and play’ and is astounding with both acoustic & electronic drums.
