Innovative Soloist Series IP240 Medium Birch Marimba Mallets - Product Information

The Innovative Percussion IP240 Soloist Series Medium Marimba Mallets are designed for use in the middle 3 octaves of a 5 octave marimba but offer more articulation than the IP200 model. The IP240 mallets feature 100% wool yarn, birch handles and hard rubber cores that help to create a full, rich tone and warm fundamental.

Designed with the marimba virtuoso in mind, the Soloist Series is constructed using hard rubber cores covered in a series of latex combinations. The mallets are wrapped in a 100% wool wrap, custom manufactured specifically for Innovative Percussion, which delivers a brilliant, rich tone with the warmest fundamental possible in all registers of the marimba. The series is offered on birch handles that are polished for the smoothest natural finish. Each step of production ensures a mallet designed to meet the highest standards of today's most demanding marimbists.

Specifications:

  • Yarn Wrapped
  • Medium Hardness
  • Birch Shafts

Great for solos, not for ensembles

Comments:

These mallets have earned their popularity for sure. They have a very warm sound and feel great to play on marimbas or xylophone as an extra-soft or rolling mallet. 4-mallet feels great because they aren't too top-heavy and the polish makes the shafts smooth but not slippery. Excellent mallet for solo & percussion ensemble work However, they fall short during larger ensemble playing. Despite being more top-heavy, they're still lighter than most other marimba mallets, and struggle to project through a strong brass section or into larger performance halls. I've purchased almost the entire line (IP200-400) but I always find myself reaching for a Zivkovic or Mark Ford model during ensemble rehearsal.

Excellent mallets!

Comments:

These mallets create such a beautiful sonority from our marimba...not too much attack with clear resonance that projects through the ensemble. Would purchase again!
