"Miller Machine is the Best."

Hi - my name is Dave M., I'm a drummer in Toronto Canada and I recently bought a Miller Machine at Soul Drums here in town.

It's saving my life right now, I'm playing in the pit for a production of William Finn's "Falsettos" and it was a scary amount of choreography before I got the Miller Machine.

Great idea, easy to mount and play, totally awesome.

Thanks, Dave M.

Exactly what I hoped it would be and more!

I’m a pit musician for a Middle school theater group and as a once a year gig, it’s not typically a high pressure situation but this year it crept up on me and I needed a solution for a show with a lot of triangle/snare/hi hat combos and the Miller Machine delivered perfectly. Precise 8th notes with brushes or sticks; I never missed a beat. I highly recommend it! You won’t be disappointed!

Thank you David! I really appreciate your support! Billy
