Grover Pro's proprietary ITaP™ technology. It’s like 3D for your ears.
The revolutionary “Independent Tension and Pressure” (ITaP) technology was developed by drummer, author, and percussion innovator Libor Hadrava. The patent-pending system is built around an independent snare depth control. Drummers could always adjust the tension on their snares, but the result was always a compromise between sound and sensitivity. The ITaP system allows you to easily adjust the distance of the snare cables from the snare head. This means that the snare pressure (or sound quality) can be adjusted independent of the snare tension (or sensitivity). The ITaP system provides you—for the first time—complete control of your sound to optimize every performance.
Unlike “multi-tonal” drums that focus on creating different snare sounds, Grover Pro's line of G3 snare drums is conceived around the scientific acoustic principles of snare response theory. As the graphic below demonstrates, each type of snare responds optimally within a finite dynamic range. Clearly, one size can not fit all in today’s expanding genres.
After exhaustive in-lab testing as well as hours of performance analysis, Grover Pro has identified and created the optimal combinations of snare materials and manufacturing methods. The result: a snare drum experience unlike any other, one that will precisely and consistently express the optimal tones, colors, and timbres that performers and conductors demand—at every dynamic level in any performance environment.
The remarkably responsive G3T drums deliver a clean, focused sound from pppp to ffff, from jazz to contemporary classical, from your studio to the world’s finest concert halls. You will never sound better.
Your many years of lessons and countless hours of practicing represent significant investments in your professional career. When you perform, many people have high expectations: your section mates, your fellow musicians, your conductor, your audience. But none is as demanding as you. For that reason alone, you deserve to have an instrument that meets your expectations. That is the overarching philosophy that drives Grover Pro's innovation and demanding standards in design, manufacturing, and customer service.
