I’ ve always wanted a Miller Machine, but I never needed one before now. I am very happy with the Miller Machine, the service from Billy, and the shipping time!

The mark of a great idea is that once discovered, it seems obvious. This is a brilliant device that serves as a solution to a long standing problem!

I play a lot of musical theater and The Miller Machine is a centerpiece of my drum/percussion setup. It’s a simple yet ingenious and well crafted instrument, which is why I have five of them!

The Miller Machine is a must have for any show production, drumset or percussion, and makes those hard to get to triangle notes possible! Awesome product and love
Using mine!

Got busy with playing a show and starting a set up at home for a new production. Miller Machine is so important to most of my set ups now I purchased another triangle machine.
Now have 2 triangle (one brass and one steel beater) and 1 finger cymbal machine.
The best orchestrators know what is possible when you have a Miller Machine and always write passages that would be unplayable without the Miller.
Thanks Billy for such a perfect invention. Cheers!

Kia ora from NZ! I came across the Miller Machine from a musician friend and I knew I needed one for pit work! I wasn’t expecting it to arrive as quickly as it did (super fast), nor the super cute extra stickers (who doesn’t love stickers!?). I’m really pleased with my machine and have two musical theatre gigs coming up in the next three months and know it will get used, and make my life just a bit easier.

I received my first Miller Machine quite a few years ago as a gift. Shortly thereafter, I bought another one for a finger cymbal. Both have served me well for all of the time I’ve owned them. Recently, I had the opportunity to play a show that required 3 separate triangles as well as finger cymbal so of course I bought 2 more. They worked flawlessly as they always do. The craftsmanship is always on point and the machines have become a permanent part of my theatrical percussion setup. In addition, Billy’s service is impeccable. I received my order quickly and Billy even checked in to see if my older machines were still working. Class act all the way around.

The best and ONLY product of its kind. High quality parts, easy to use, and the best way to get great sounds in complex percussion set ups.

Exactly what I hoped for with helpful service from Billy himself!

The Triangle Machine is a live savior, especially when you are playing for a musical or opera, and there’s quick instrument change. Very convenient and easy to use!

Amazing!

It’s a great tool for pit work. Quick access to the triangle, I must say.

An absolute must for any percussionist/drummer that wants/needs triangle in their setup!

Billy sent me exactly what I needed. The new parts worked great, holds the finger cymbal exactly where I need it, and lets it ring out so much better than before.

What a great company who makes the best products, with a genuinely great guy with great customer support running the thing… what more could you want in a company? The Beater is perfect.

I recently received my fourth Miller Machine. If you play percussion, and especially musical theater, the Miller Machine is indispensable. Why would you hold a triangle in one hand or hang it from a music stand when you can do everything you need to with The Machine? I use mine for finger cymbals as well, and with Billy’s new beaters, rolls are a piece of cake.

I bought the finger cymbal machine to use with crotales recently. Works great! Easy to adjust, consistent sound. I like the option to be able to pick different beaters. Billy is the man! Friendly, professional. 100% do recommend.

The Tibetan finger cymbal is the best thing I added to my percussion section.

This device is such a game changer when you are playing either in a pit orchestra or shorthanded in the percussion section in an ensemble. And Billy is just purely amazing to work with. Thank you!

The day after I received the Miller machine, I started using it for "Into the Woods" That show uses a lot of triangle and this machine has made it so easy to move between the triangle and other percussion instruments. What's most impressive is the control that can be achieved with this machine. The pivot mechanisim is designed beautifully for this purpose. I highly recommend this machine to any percussionist.

Thank you for your support and providing a great machine and idea.

As a session and touring percussionist, looking for the next best thing is a daily habit. I found this machine and now it goes with me everywhere! The Miller Machine is worth every penny and then some!!!

A very helpful add on and tool to use with my bongos and conga set.

It is absolutely perfect for every percussionist. It is so amazing and it can be played very differently in attack and dynamic.
Just perfect!
