Unboxing & Setting Up

Finger Cymbal Machine for the Win!

"I’m also using my finger cymbal machine for a number of solo cues on the Broadway show 'Lempicka' this spring. The finger cymbal has become an important sound to the show, and Billy’s machine makes my life 100x easier!"

Finger Cymbal Arm

"Why didn’t I think of that."

"No questions, just wanted to tell you what a great idea you had. I played most of the National Tours that came through Orlando and Tampa from 1990 thru 2020. I first heard it when Mary Poppins came through. I couldn’t figure how the drummer made the mallet switch and played 16th notes, he used two. It was a 'why didn’t I think of that moment'. I’m glad you did!"
