N A Protean 3 Med - Soft/Hard

The articulation of the interpreter increase the sound possibilities of this model because of the multitone character, from round sounds in the lowest part of the instrument, to clear sounds in the high part. This is a perfect model to start when working on the attack control, to let the students feel how many different sounds they can get with the same set of mallets playing with a different articulations.

Nuno Aroso says:

"These mallets are positioned half way in between the softest and the hardest models of the entire series. They offers the artist the best of the concept behind Protean invention- a full coverage of the instrument without any loss both in amount and sound quality. Delicate, malleable and all terrain tool for the most demanding solo or chamber music percussionists."
