The Triangle Machine + (Plus) comes from a collaboration between Billy Miller, and Neil Grover of Grover Pro Percussion.

Beater angle adjusts from 90 degrees, for a focused sound (ideal for pit work) to 135 degrees, for creating a nice spread of overtones (great for orchestral and contemporary settings).

The position of the beater slides, side to side, to find the optimal beater balance for your particular setup.

Includes the new custom made 5/16" Solid-Body Brass Beater. Length, weight, and balance (fulcrum) all optimized to get a great sound from your triangle.

Side to Side

The solid-body brass beater slides, side to side, to find the optimal position for your particular setup.

Most helpful when the Machine is set to 135 degrees.

New Suspension Mount

"I really like this update.

There’s a safety loop just in case you have a failure mid-show and the increased stability of the hang lets your triangle stay still for manual and fast playing.

Solid improvements on an already great product."

"Damn Smart"

Just got the new machine. Thanks for incorporating the beater change I had in the back of my head, and the tilt function is damn smart.

None of the shows I'm doing this season call for a machine (Wicked and Beautiful) but I'm super glad to have it in my hands!

Great Percussion Hack

I love my Miller Machine! I use it all the times for Musicals, concert band performances, and percussion ensemble pieces. Its a great part of any aspiring percussionists’ toolkit.

Worth Every Penny!

I first heard about this machine back during my undergrad, and just now got one for a pit drum set gig. Materials are very high quality, and it worked perfectly. If you haven't used one before, it does take a little practice to effectively play different dynamics, but it's awesome that this device is capable of that!

Hi Nathan, thank you for leaving a review for the Plus Machine! And thanks for your feedback on playing different dynamics, glad you were able to sort it out. Billy

Love the New Version!

I have used Miller Machines for years (original Miller Machine with the silver colored upright rod) and the finger cymbal machine. The new machine with the updated beater and tilting ability is outstanding. I’ve used it in two musical since I received it and it’s perfect. Shipping was fast - communication with Billy was great. I highly recommend.

Tim! Thank you for your wonderful review of the Plus Machine, and glad you like the new updates! Billy

Versatile, reliable and easy to use

I love my set of Miller Machines. I can use my horizontal mount to fit four finger cymbals, and the triangle machines are fantastic for the fast triangle changes in Sweeney Todd! Thank you, Billy!

Thank you Hamish! So glad the Horizontal Mount worked with four finger cymbals. Very cool, and thanks for sending the photo! Billy
