What is the Porter & Davies BC2 Tactile Drum Monitor and who is it designed for?

The BC2 is a unique tactile drum monitor that allows musicians to feel their sound rather than just hear it. It transmits low-end frequencies directly through the drum throne, providing a powerful, immersive experience. This system is ideal for drummers, bassists, keyboardists, cellists, and other musicians who want to improve their monitoring on stage or in the studio. It helps reduce ear fatigue and enhances their connection to the groove, offering a more impactful and precise monitoring solution for anyone seeking to truly feel their sound.

How does the BC2 Tactile Drum Monitor deliver sound to the drummer?

Unlike traditional monitors that use speakers, the BC2 system uses a specialized transducer built into the saddle throne top. This transducer converts audio signals into vibrations that are felt directly through your body. This allows you to experience the kick drum, bass guitar, and other low-frequency instruments with incredible clarity and impact, even at lower stage volumes.

What are the connectivity options for the Porter & Davies BC2?

The BC2 offers versatile connectivity for various setups. It features two XLR inputs, which can accept either mic or line-level signals, allowing you to connect a mixer, drum module, or even a microphone. For outputs, it includes one XLR output for sending a signal to a front-of-house mixer or another monitor, and one SpeakON output to connect to the tactile throne.

What is the power output of the BC2 Tactile Drum Monitor?

The Porter & Davies BC2 delivers a robust 150 watts RMS of power. This ample power ensures that the tactile transducer in the saddle throne top can accurately and powerfully reproduce low-frequency vibrations, giving you a clear and impactful feel of your drum mix. This power output is designed to provide a consistent and reliable monitoring experience for drummers in any performance or studio setting.

What are the main advantages of using a tactile monitor like the BC2 over traditional stage monitors?

The BC2 offers several key advantages. By allowing you to feel the low frequencies, it provides a more accurate and immersive monitoring experience, reducing the need for high stage volumes and protecting your hearing. It also helps you lock into the groove more effectively, improving timing and performance. Plus, it eliminates stage clutter and feedback issues often associated with traditional wedge monitors.
