2-ply Hybrid Bass Drum Resonant Head

The Attack Orbit2 bass drum head brings a compelling new look and sound to your favorite classic kick drum. The Orbit2's hybrid 2-ply construction — comprised of a solid 10mil Dynaflex clear outer film with an "orbs" 10mil Dynaflex black under layer — delivers a response that sits somewhere between traditional 2-ply and single-ply heads in terms of punch and sustain. This gives you a quick, defined attack with a powerful low end and a wide-open bloom that is tailored specifically to kick drums. Not to mention — those symmetrical staggered orbs just looks great. Throw some LED lights inside and treat yourself and your listeners to a visual treat every time you play out. Integrated right into the Orbit2 is a 4" Holz brand bass drum port for easy microphone access. If you've been looking for an alternative to the traditional bass drum resonant head, you've got to check out the Attack Orbit2 bass drum head from Sweetwater.

The Orbit2: how does it work?

According to Attack, the Orbit 2 bass drum reso head is "the perfect hybrid of double-ply and single-ply bass drumheads." By "removing strategically selected sections of the head's under-ply," Attack allows the head to sing without sacrificing that crucial, clean low end. This gives you "the beautiful open sound of a single-ply head" with more control and greater durability. But don't take our (or Attack's) word for it; order your Orbit2 resonant head through Sweetwater today and try one for yourself.

Reviews

Can't recommend these enough
These make for great sound. Muffle some the sound on a bass drum but leave just enough boom.
It attacks the outer limits of my bass drum tone and definition!
I like this head because it functions like I desire it to.I kick it with out mercy for extended periods of time under my control!It has a really controlled low end without much in the way of ringing too much.I like this because it does not require much dampening at all.Over all I think it is a great resonant head! I like the looks of it better than I thought that I would. I am very pleased with it!

Surprised and Happy
At first I thought this was a strange Gimmick. But then I realized after purchasing one, that it is in fact two ply. Meaning the side with the holes, is in the inside. Which is interesting because as far as the tone is concerned, very full, but also very cutting and dry.

Not what I expected from the Reso head.
Bought the bundle pack of this Orbit batter and resonant head. The batter head is fine and sounds great with one
of my other reso heads. It feels and sounds.
Was not impressed with the reso head. Installed it, went finger tight on all the lugs, then did a half turn
like I usually do and it had a lot of wrinkles. So I did another half turn, then another
and still had wrinkles at the top lugs. By this time the head was tighter than I like and it didn't sound that great to my ears. Someone else might like that sound but I sure didn't.
I either got a faulty head or this is just the way this Orbit reso head is. I might purchase another one down the road
just to see if I have better luck.
