I highly recommend this product!"

"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.

How did you hear about The Miller Machine?: Google
Awesome!

We purchased two Miller Machines for our pit orchestra. One for Drum Set and another for our percussionist! What a great tool to make for quick transitions while still getting a pure triangle sound!

Wonderful, thank you Mark!

An essential piece of gearl

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!

Shannon! Great to hear from you, and thank you for the review! Bily
