Are these stands compatible with Pearl drums and carriers? If not, is there a conversion that I can buy?
Yamaha Modular Stadium Hardware for Snare Drums, model RM-MASH-S, is made by May Products and features the AIRlift system which enables the player to effortlessly set the right height for their playing needs.
With Stadium Hardware promoting correct playing technique, your drumline will literally elevate to a higher level of sound and visual performance. Yamaha's Stadium Hardware by May is an instrument suspension system that will save wear and tear on your marching percussion, and the marching percussionist.
A unique tripod system allows one of the legs to adjust independently of the other two. This ensures stable support of the instruments, even when used in bleachers. What does this mean? Percussionists can easily go from carrier to bleacher to band room without sacrificing playing technique or sound quality. Now, marching percussion can be used on carriers and stands in every situation, both inside and outside. This translates into less wear and tear on the gear, and less money coming out of the instrument repair budget.
Stadium Hardware is height adjustable to encourage proper playing technique for all players regardless of the setting: drumline rehearsals, standstill performances, football bleachers and basketball pep band performances.
When set up on a flat surface, the snare, tom and bell/xylophone stands are intentionally tilted back to bring the center of gravity over the base of the stand. This brings the instrument closer to the player and prevents the stand from tipping over. With the ATS technology, the same concept can be applied when used in bleachers.

These stands are good. Yes they have a lot of areas for adjustment which can be an issue, but if you keep up with your stand and maintain it, very sturdy and easy to use. I have used many different brands and this holds up with them too.
All these Yamaha stands by Randall May are just so poorly made without players in mind. Flimsy legs and too many screws makes them difficult to set up. Parts go missing which is never OK when it comes to marching drums, otherwise it is practically unusable. It's very disappointing that Yamaha who doesn't make that bad of a drum uses such poor mounting hardware. Randall May and Yamaha needs to do serious rethinking with their mounting hardware for their drums, specifically the stands. Very disappointed.
