Hammerax is an American percussion and cymbal manufacturer, launched in 2006 headed by Audio engineer John Stannard. [1] [2] Hammerax is known for their unique percussive creations and unusual instrument designs, [3] which have received mixed reviews from customers. [4] [5]
Notable users of their cymbals include Terry Bozzio [6] and Danny Carey. [7]
Its cymbals, which have been crafted in many unique and patented or patent pending forms, are particularly noted. [8] Hammerax's private collection includes at least 50 instruments, some of which were experimental test prototypes. [8]
Head-turning effects to make all hell break loose
Liquicy 'vibrato' cymbals signify an innovative step in cymbal making. Hammerax's patent-pending technology creates a constantly phase-shifting vibrato in which tones are always moving and sweeping. A wild yet smooth effect. Crash the Liquicy's edge or ride the sweet spot with light sticks.
Hammerax Liquicy cymbals were unveiled in 2007 after research into developing a cymbal of increased flex which yielded a deep vibrato style wobble. Early Liquicy cymbals were crashes geared toward max depth of wobble with a slow deep wave. Research continued and after years of work, Hammerax utilized a greater variety of shapes, hammer patterns and heat treating to expand the possibilities of Liquicy. These later tests were handmade at great expense and a few surprising features emerged- Some had a bell-like cup ping.
