THIS GUY!
@@drumcenternh this should be pinned!
@@cadben lol 2 days still not pinned. duuuuumb DCP.
Thanks for the information
With the metal drums it mentions that they're seamed. Apart from the hammered bronze drum. Does this mean it has a spun shell??
I'm actually in love with the Persuader..The low and medium tunings are just beautiful, Not to mention it looks really badass.
In my opinion mapex are one of the best value manufacturers out there.
I used to put myself off of mapex as I thought they were all thrown together , cheap China made drums. But it turns out all of the other companies are now making their drums in China/Taiwan with a healthy profit Margin on their premium priced kits. And every couple of years they stick a ‘revolutionary’ new piece of hardware on them to keep the prices nice and high. I’m going to be going with mapex from now on as their prices are competitive , like all drums should be!
def mapex drums always have great tone. I may get a set one day.
I've had my Mapex "V" series kit since I was a Junior in high school (I'm 33 now) and it's been on so many recordings, played so many shows. After all these years I'm finally upgrading to a Saturn 🙂
you guys are the best and I think Shane is a vampire. he doesnt age.
#daywalker
lol
The metallion is straight up, no doubt, a goddamn masterpiece.
I'm still in love with the Mapex Sledgehammer.
I just got the persuader and it’s amazing,,, closest thing to the sledgehammer
@@bryandrums32 just listened to a demo and congrats! It’s so dry and crispy I love the way it sounds.
@@BWJR89 heck ya!!!! I’m happy it helped you out!!!! Your awesome bud!!!!
The low tuning on the Nucleus has that Acrolite tone. I like it!!
Mapex delivers again! Great new lineup of Black Panther snares.
Your video editing has gone to a new level haha
Thanks, Todd. Let's just say the video guy has some extra time on his hands these days.
Your edits with the funny inserts are on a whole new level!
Nucleus sounds solid in all tuning ranges. Love it!
I'm in love with Hydra, very beautiful and great sounding snare.. ❤️
I absolutely love the persuader
As always, great, and informative presentation.
Shane: "10 years...you haven't changed a bit.....your cymbal trees however truly have benefitted from ™'Miracle Grow' known as great service, super product offerings, and excellent staff and improved video reviews. I have never been there, but sometime after my wedding later this year I am planning to stop by with my new wife and check it out all the way from upstate(Rochester)New York,--a 600 mile pilgrimage to percussion heaven. Looking very forward to meeting you all and your incredible store from what I can see online over the last few years... Long live Ludwig and Gretsch!"🥁🥁
Cyrus sounds really good too! Very impressed with all of them!
Yes man!
The Persuader sounds great!
all sound like very nice drums. I really enjoy the Black Panther line of drums.
I’ve been checking TH-cam for a new Black Panther video everyday since NAMM. THANK YOU!!!!!
Love the low tune on the Hydra!
Mapex is the most underrated brand. I have the complete Mapex kit with hardware and it`s perfect.
I am a Huge fan of BP snares. Thanks for the demo of beautiful new flavors!
Thanks for watching, Sean!
These all sound really good -- for me the three that stood out for my taste were the Hydra, Nucleus and the Persuader. I also liked the uniqueness of the Wasp -- would come in handy for different recording situations. Great job guys.
I have never paid attention to Mapex Drums so I must admit these snare drums sounded better than I thought, especially for the price. If I had to pick one that sounded like it was versatile enough to be on the snare stand for the entire gig it would be the Atomizer.
I'm a Tama fanboy through and through, but I have more Mapex snares in my collection than anything else. I normally use a 13x6 brass master but I just picked up the (recently discontinued) Matt Halpern signature and was promptly blown away by it. Never had such an easy time dialing in such a delicious tone before.
Got the Mapex Saturn V back in 2015 and I have never thought about switching it out or buying another one since
I appreciate the comprehensive look (sound of each snare) Surprisingly enough for me, I liked the aluminum the best. Thanks again!
me too. Mapex sounds clean, articulate and consistent. :)
I appreciate how you play the whole kit but put the focus on the snare
1. Thanks for this video. The level of work and love to detail you guys put into your content is second to none. 🙏
2. Mapex snares seem to become a go-to choice. And they really show that you don’t need to spend much more than 400-600$ on a pro sounding snare nowadays. Everything above like all those Sonor, Gretsch or DW are truly amazing, but in the end more a level of collector’s items.
3. This video again showcases that the drum
head and the tuning contribute so much more to a sound than the shell or material itself.
4. Having said that, I often find myself to like snares that are tuned counterintuitive to get best results: tuning a small drum rather low and fat, big snares rather high.
4. This is not really counterintuitive at all, there's more to a snare than just size. I own a Persuader like the one in the video and it just works so much better in medium-high range. It just sits there SO nicely. I find myself going to the 14x5.5 aluminium for the low end if i need it.
Which is the opposite for a very similar hammered brass snares, such as the Gregg Bisonette dixon one, i tried it in a shop and it was an absolute monster tuned low, but quite bad high. Both same sizes, both hammered brass with nickel on top. Guess the rims and extra ventillation that the Persuader has made all that difference.
The Nucleus Is amazing, never thought I'd like a 5.5 snare
Beautiful snares...
Snares are all great, but the real star of the video is that kick. Man... 🤤
I like the Nucleus and Metallion. Both amazing sounding across the board.
Ooh that Hydra sounds so nice! Nucleus sounds great in all three tunings. Persuader also sounds really good. Awesome snares!
Beautiful Sonor Hilite tom-tom and beautiful, sweet Cyrus cat. 😻
I'm only one minute in... but im gonna watch the whole thing!!!
The Cyrus and the shadow sounds amazing
Agreed, they sound incredible.
The Shadow and Cyrus for me... the room mics are a great comparison tool. not evryone will have moxing ability so it gives a clear raw sound.
Nice line of snares have a flavor for everyone it seems. Great video thx
Those Hydra, Solidus and the Aluminum one are going straight to my wishlist as soon as we get out of this sh** here in Italy.
Thank you for the video guys!
Thanks for watching. Be well!
@@drumcenternh We will! Thanks guys🙏
I have an older 13X6 Maple/ Walnut Black Panther. Killer snare.
I really liked that Metallion brass snare. Just sounded so good.
I own a hand hammered Persuader and I love it!!
Wowww...Thanks a million for this video!! Always great vids posted by your team! What I like is that you show it with PA and room-mics which gives me the best image on how it will sound acoustically and through in ears over the PA. I was intended to go check out the DW Black nickel over Brass before seeing this vid. That made me doubt cause the Metallion sounds amazing. Yesterday went for a test in store and...bought the Mapex which I preferred above the DW. Mapex does it again!! They're real competitors against the big brands with their price/ value! Now they have to work on their image! Cause...they've been making great sounding stuff for years (had an Orion set which sounded sublime!) but their marketing and esthetics....arrgghhhhh... that big black logo..especially with the suspension type on the toms on the new Saturn...that's a bigggg NOOOO imo!!!
Great video. Love that you included room micing.
Glad you liked it!
for me, definitely persuader and predator ...the visual and sound were badass...🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥
The copper PREDATOR and brass METALLION , are two great snares in this Mapex range.
Shane was diving or snorkeling :D
Great video, keep them coming!
Opeth Deliverance drumbeat after the intro!!!
Playing Mapex for years with mainly the maple/walnut snare. The Persuader and the Preditor (tuned high) are now on the Wish List. The high tuning with Mapex snares are where they breathe and sound best imho.
mmmmmmmmm 13X7 is my sweet spot and that Hydra did not disappoint!
Finally Mapex reintroduces the aluminum snare!!!!! Bout time!!!!!
Couple thoughts..
1. Atomizer in high tuning is very reminiscent of the Jimmy Chamberlain sig snare used by Chad Smith on many RHCP records. Sounds excellent
2. Mapex is pretty proud of that wasp at over $400
3. Nice mixes Tony
pacificdrumma thank you sir 😉
100% was gonna say the same about the Atomizer, great chad smith'esk sound! got to say thought i loved the shadow in high tuning, the birch/walnut has such a depth to it!
The Mapex Daisy Cutter was the absolute best value snare I've ever played, and the Persuader seems like a like update on that!
I think you meant to type Sledgehammer
😉
@@stephenchesterjr1364 They're both great. But the Daisy Cutter costs VERY little.
That Atomizer sounds friggin ace!
Helpful video !!!!!
Nice !! Thank you !!!
Great review on lots of snares lol.. you guys at DCP have definitely come a long way with your drum demos. Also agree with earlier comments about Shane’s drumming .. nice work!!👌
Would love love to have one, great sound!
cool snares!
i´m in love with heritage, hydra nucleus and predator... I have some black panther snares include a complete kit of BP Blaster drum.... but i´m in love witch the bassdrum and floortom of these saturn kit... Is the most musically that i ever heard
Love the drum outro from Deliverance at 0:20 !
Thanks for the great insightful video!! My Favorites are for the wood snares: Hydra And for the Metal snares: Persuader
I currently own 9 Mapex BP snares and a birch/walnut Saturn that matches with one of my kits. Most of which are similar to some of the new snares. The Phatbob, Heartbreaker, Wraith, 13” Cherrybomb, and Stinger. Then I have some older ones with die cast hoops. 14x5.5 Birdseye maple, 14x6.5 Aluminum, 13x5.5 Brass and a 13x5.5 Phosphor Bronze. I love the Mapex sounds and can’t wait to get my hands on my two new favorites lol.
I could use your help identifying the model I own, I am not able to find another of the exact snare. Let me know if you could aid me in this pursuit, thnx!
Do you have the BP Sledgehammer? If so, how does it compare to the Persuader?
Great work from DCP and Mapex.
I have played Mapex kits for 20 years starting with a Mars 5 piece and now a 6piece MPro. The bass drums and toms are killer but the stock snares and floor toms not so much. I went with a Yamaha Tour Custom snare instead. Mapex do best bang for the buck imho. Of this new range I like the first versatile classic snare and the copper one.
I just can't get on with those hairless cats or dogs, they freak me out, even though I am bald too😆
I like the Cyrus the best! What a great drum! They all sound good though. I have an older Mapex "Brass Cat" snare, which is similar to these. I really like it because it's very solidly built. I like the snare throw off a lot, and the extra tensioner on the other side. That's a useful thing to have. I like the Sonic Saver hoop too. It's kind of like a die cast hoop in that it focuses the sound a bit and makes for a nice rim shot without biting into your sticks. Overall, I like my drum because it sounds great and has some high end features but doesn't cost an arm and a leg.
Pegasus tuned high, my fave 👍
atomizer is KILLER. aluminum makes loudness and sensitivity.
Kinda off topic but that kick sounds awesome, super focused attack but it still has a good bit of low end!
It's a Saturn kit, so it's kind of on topic!
Predator at medium tuning is really nice!
love this video, I really apreciate, that you recorded sound of drums not only with mix but also with room mics - i am looking for cool sounding snare and it helps a lot to hear what actually would sound well in live situations. Greetings :D
Awesome, thank you!
Wow that Hydra snare! Im usually not into 13 snare, but this one...👀👌🏼
I see ya Shane with those big ole rock sticks!! Those big ole 2B's from the 80's!!👀
I am not into Mapex drums at all but I enjoyed this video anyway! Thanks!
At one point I owned a black panther mapex blaster kit with its corresponding snare ( 12 × 6 ), the Machette smoked black ( 14 × 6.5 ) and the Sledgehammer hand hammered brass. ( 14 × 6.5 )
They were some of the best sounding snares at half the price. No lie.
That kick sound though.
I just ordered that Solidus from you guys today , what a beast ! Fat !
Just purchased a Cyrus. Went for something similar to my Black Panther Blade.
I really hope the lugs hold up on the new range of BP snares. ❤
At low, medium and high Pegasus will fly.
It Sounds a lot thicker than what it is, I don't know about in person but on video it's the winner. Anyway as a drum nut myself I want to say, Thanks for the time an effort you guys put into making these videos. Rock on Brother 🤟
Metallion and Predator sounded amazing for the metal drums! Again, solid in all tuning ranges. The copper shell of the Predator was drier sounding than the Metallion.
Just ordered the Atomizer from you guys!! Should go great with the Machete and the Heartbreaker. Thanks for the great vids.
Thanks for your support, Aaron! You're gonna love the Atomizer.
in love with the predator:)
That drum is a beast!
These new Black Panther snares are 🔥🔥🔥. But let’s not get twisted the Current Black Panther Snares are still killn. There was nothing “tired” about the Black Panther Snare Drum line. I’m just making a reference to the comment you at the :35 mark. They still nice. #facts 💯
The Shadow looks interesting.
28:40 That's how a snare should sound. Close to perfection to my ears
I like the Persuader!

Yikes! This was obviously a labor of love. Well done, folks.
I don't think you know what "YIKES" means.
@@totigerus This bothers you? Seriously? Sad. Okay, so if I'd said "Yikes! My wife used to work in TV, so I know you had to shoot a lot of footage to get 45 minutes worth of usable video and I know you had to spend a considerable amount of time in post production editing it and all that, so this was a labor of love," that would have been acceptable to you? Or "Yikes! I can't believe an obviously approving comment on a great video somehow raised the hackles of someone who is, apparently, overly-sensitive?" Stay safe and healthy, Totigerus.
my favorites are the cyrus and the nucleus.
I am a Ludwig guy but that Heritage Maple and Pegasus sounded nice and Shane you have to rock those sideburns again.
Cyrus at medium tuning is really nice.
I own and love the equinox snare from mapex, sold an old black widow snare and regret it. These sound great
Man... it's hard to beat brass shells if you're looking for a metal snare. I love the sound of those brass snares in the medium tuning range. The copper snare was killer in the high tuning range. In fact... it sounds very similar to my Mapex hammered stainless steel snare from about 10 years ago. I have no clue why they stopped making those precious metal snares. Mine is phenomenal.
I have a Mapex snare that no one seems to be able to identify. it is a fifteen by 3 1/2 inch, hammered finish, chrome finished snare. I took it to the guitar center, and sam ash and the only thing that I learned was that according to the serial numbers they thought it may be an early production model or a prototype.. it was no series name on it, only the Mapex badge with a serial number. any clues?
@@brotherhubbardmusic... no... I have no clue. I don't think I've ever seen a 15" in person. That's pretty cool though. How do you buy snare wires for it? That's not something you see every day.
Nothing beats brass
Veramente alta qualità ,è molto difficile scegliere tra questi rullanti, sono tutti belli e hanno un suono eccezionale, penso che con tutti questi modelli si potrà soddisfare i gusti di tutti i batteristi.
watching this with a black panther snare under my desk at work
The Predator and the shadow are the best !
The Hydra is also incredible ! The new blaster snare
I knew that drum intro in the beginning sounded super familiar, it's definitely Deliverance by Opeth. Anyway, the black panther snares are absolutely some of my favorite snares ever, they are super crisp and just sound incredible.
I've been hunting for an aluminum shell snare alternative to the overpriced Supraphonic LM402. Heard that Mapex came out with the "Atomizer" and was intrigued. Watched this video and thought "wow - that's a very good sounding drum!" And its not even a spun-aluminum shell like most of its competitors (Pearl Sensitone, Yamaha Recording Custom, Tama Starphonic). Now I'm torn between the Yamaha Recording Custom and this Mapex Atomizer. I already own a Mapex Black Widow 14"x5" maple snare and I'm convinced that Mapex's secret sauce is their 3.0mm thick Sonic Saver hoops, which are nearly as rigid as diecast but much easier on the wrists and really make snare drums sound amazing.
Awesome video! Since I really liked (or still like) the Sledgehammer from the older Mapex Black Panther series, I'm really digging the Persuader. But I noticed that the only things that changed are the Hardware and the fact that there are more vents, am I right? It's the same material, same shell depth, diameter and thickness.
I was surprised by how Razor sounded full bodied even though it's a shallow depth size snare.
Atomizer at high tuning was really nice!
Agreed, awesome sounding snare.
Persuader all day. 😍
Man, those metal snare drums!!! Wasn’t a bad one in the bunch!!! I want them all!!!
Hey just glad to see shane.!!! Where you been? It's been along time since we seen ya.You ok?
