Key Features
The Mapex Saturn Evolution LTD Edition 5pc Shell Pack in Maple Burl Blaze Veneer is a versatile, high-performance kit designed for drummers seeking exceptional resonance and visual impact. Featuring Mapex's renowned Maple/Walnut hybrid shells, this kit combines the warmth of maple with the clarity of walnut, delivering a rich, balanced tone suitable for diverse playing styles. The Chamber Specific Design optimises shell thickness and bearing edges by drum size, ensuring each drum resonates with precision. Paired with the SoniClear Attenuation System and Halo Mounting System, this kit produces open, controlled tones with minimal interference. Built with Sonic Saver hoops and innovative Sonic Pedestal floor tom feet, the Saturn Evolution ensures maximum resonance and stability, perfect for studio or stage performances.
Please Note: Snare, Hardware and Cymbals not included

Equipped with a Sustain Adjustment Knob, the Saturn Evolution gives drummers control over the resonance of each tom. This feature allows you to adjust the resonance by tightening or loosening the rubber gasket inside the mount, so you can dial in a short, controlled decay or a wide, open tone. Ideal for studio work, this pre-EQ functionality can save time by shaping the drum sound before it even hits your plug-ins.
The Sonic Pedestal Floor Tom Feet elevate resonance and minimise vibration transfer by isolating the tom from direct contact with the ground. Supported by a cotter pin, each floor tom essentially, on springy rubber feet, producing a fuller, richer sound that's noticeable in both live and studio settings. This design, along with the SAS Static 90 degree legs, reduces sound loss and maximises sustain.
The Halo Mounting System on all toms unlocks full resonance potential by providing a stable but unrestricted fit. This lateral suspension system, located under the lug line, enables the shell to vibrate freely without mounting interference, resulting in an open, natural tone that other systems may restrict. It's a game-changer for capturing a drum's true sound on recordings.
Mapex's Chamber Specific Design means that each drum in the Saturn Evolution kit has a tailored build, with shell plies, depths, and bearing edges customised to each drum size. This attention to detail creates a cohesive sound across the entire kit, ensuring a harmonious blend and optimal tonal depth from the smallest tom to the kick drum. Whether you're performing live or recording, this design provides consistent, high-quality tones across your set.
