The Docking Station represents a new step forward in the possibilities of what a drum rack is, or can be. As part of the Stealth line of drum racks, the Docking Station offers a low profile, compact system to mount your drums, cymbals and electronics without taking up too much floor space, in a design that’s low mass, functional, and has a decidedly unique look.
What is the Docking Station?
Unlike most drum racks that feature cross bars over the bass drum and in front of the tom toms, the Docking Station features a U-shaped bar that hugs the contour of the bass drum. Designed to work with bass drums up to 24”, the Docking Station offers drummers a solution for mounting drums and cymbals all on the same bar by using adjustable multi clamps, standard multi clamps, tom arms and cymbal boom arms. The U Bar is secured in two horizontal T leg assemblies for a rock solid foundation.
Transporting Docking Station
Extremely low profile, the Docking Station eliminates tripod clutter, and omits two of the cross connector clamps of a traditional drum rack. With less hardware to carry, the Docking Station offers a quick set-up and tear down. The Docking Station Carry Bag is the perfect companion to transport this rack. It easily fits the entire system, plus three to four cymbal boom arms.
Customizing Docking Station
As with all Stealth Rack systems, all parts are compatible for customization to build your personal setup. For example, eliminate the tripod from the traditional hi-hat stand and snare stand by using a no-leg stand. Or add side extensions or wings for additional mounting space.
It’s easy to add more toms and cymbals to the Docking Station by using the Multi Angle Multi Clamp which allows unlimited angle adjustments for tom holders or cymbal arms. With the addition of cymbal stackers, you have an unlimited choice of how to build a custom setup that is truly your own unique design.
Create your own custom design and integrate with other rack setups. The Docking Station can be used for low profile setups, as well as combined with other components to accommodate larger drum and cymbal set ups.
