REMO Buffalo Synthetic Vegan Frame Drums

Deep tone. Consistent response.

The REMO Buffalo drums offer a stable and accessible entry into working with frame drum sound.

Made with synthetic heads, they provide a reliable tone that remains consistent across environments—allowing the focus to remain on practice rather than adjustment.

A Full and Resonant Voice

Across sizes, these drums carry a deep, steady tone.

The sound can feel both grounding and expansive, with a clear fundamental supported by natural vibration through the frame.

Larger sizes allow the tone to open more fully.

Smaller sizes offer ease and mobility.

Consistent in All Conditions

The synthetic head is not affected in the same way as natural hide.

The tone remains stable in dry air, humidity, or outdoor environments. There is no need to adjust or prepare the drum before use.

You can simply pick it up and begin.

Choosing a Size

Each size offers a slightly different relationship with sound and form:

14" — lighter, easier to hold for extended periods, with a softer low tone
16" — balanced size, offering both depth and manageability
22" — fuller resonance, wider tonal range, and more expansive sound field
16" Black Bahia — a more focused bass tone, with minimal overtone and strong low presence

Over time, the differences are felt directly through practice.

Use in Practice

These drums can be approached simply.

In practice, they may support:

• developing a steady and consistent rhythm
  
• working with low-frequency grounding tones
  
• playing in varied environments without adjustment
  
• building a long-term relationship with a dependable instrument
  

They are often used in group settings, personal practice, and shared spaces.
