Up until today and ever since the early days, when makeshift kits, foot stomps and handclaps served as rhythm sections in churches, the beat has been central in every syllable, bar and phrase of worship music. Simply put: rhythm is instilled in each fiber of gospel as we know it.
The Gospel EZX celebrates just that: the power of rhythm and the legacy of a genre whose DNA over the course of history has seeped through to almost any facet of music imaginable. With branches arching into anything from R&B and soul to rock, hip-hop and fusion, gospel is the literal definition of width. With its four fundamentally different sets of tonal characteristics, this EZX covers the entire scope and paints an impressive sonic image – from the open-sounding tones of the early 1940s and the dry, muffled and tight ones of the 1960s to the punchy, distinct and crystal clear sound of today.
Add to that the ear and craftsmanship of Danny Duncan – seven-time Grammy Award-winning engineer/producer with a longstanding gospel merit – the breathtaking aura of the Paragon Studios A-room, the magic stroke of drummer Calvin Rodgers as well as custom presets, MIDI, percussion, handclaps, snaps and foot stomps and you have the ultimate gospel battery.
If words are the lifeblood of gospel music, rhythm is the heartbeat upon which they thrive. Welcome to a collection of drums that encapsulates the essence of one of the most powerful and uniting forms of musical expression: gospel.
直到今天，从早期开始，当临时工具包、跺脚和拍手作为教堂的节奏部分时，节拍一直是礼拜音乐的每个音节、小节和短语的核心。简单地说：节奏被灌输到我们所知道的福音的每一根纤维中。
福音EZX就是这样庆祝的：节奏的力量和一种流派的遗产，这种流派的DNA在历史的长河中渗透到了几乎所有可以想象的音乐方面。从R&B、灵魂乐到摇滚、嘻哈和融合，福音是宽度的字面定义。凭借其四组根本不同的音调特征，这款EZX涵盖了整个范围，并描绘了一幅令人印象深刻的声音图像——从20世纪40年代初的开放式音调到20世纪60年代的干燥、低沉和紧绷的音调，再到今天强烈、独特和清澈的声音。
除此之外，七次获得格莱美奖的工程师/制作人丹尼·邓肯（Danny Duncan）的耳朵和工艺还有长期的福音功绩，Paragon Studios a室令人惊叹的氛围，鼓手卡尔文·罗杰斯（Calvin Rodgers）的神奇一击，以及自定义预设、MIDI、打击乐、拍手、按扣和跺脚，你就拥有了终极的福音电池。
如果说言语是福音音乐的命脉，那么节奏就是它们茁壮成长的心跳。欢迎来到鼓集，它概括了最强大、最团结的音乐表达形式之一的精髓：福音。 |
