Using your Evans Strata Timpani drumhead is easy. First, make sure the drum is clean and dry before installing the drumhead. When tuning, use the pre - tensioned feature to get consistent results. You'll notice the smooth, calf - coloured coating helps reduce mallet wear and enhances the sound. For best performance, play with appropriate timpani mallets. As for maintenance, keep the drumhead away from direct sunlight and extreme temperatures. If it gets dirty, use a soft, dry cloth to gently wipe it. Avoid using harsh chemicals or abrasive materials as they can damage the coating. With proper care, your Evans drumhead will last a long time and keep producing great sounds.
