WHAT’S INSIDE

QUANTUM SERIES ORIGINS

The “Quantum Marching Project” was initiated in 2006 with the sole intention of delivering the first complete range of marching instruments specifically designed to provide a cohesive and powerful ensemble sound. As a demonstration of confidence and ambition, marketing of this new approach began with the “Taking the Field” campaign in 2007. 2008 marked the initial manifestation of these early visions, with the launch of Jupiter, Mapex and Majestic Quantum Series instruments. This new series quickly garnered favor among many of the world’s elite drum corps, marching bands and indoor ensembles. Meanwhile, the Quantum Project continued as the vehicle to seek ongoing advancements to meet the rapidly evolving needs of the competitive marching arts activity.


WHAT IS QUANTUM?

A “Quantum Leap� refers to something Sudden, Spectacular or of Vital Importance. This spirit of PROGRESS is central the Quantum Project and the Quantum Series of instruments. Just as Quantum serves to unify the Jupiter, Mapex and Majestic brands, we recognize the powerful UNITY that exists within the strongest musical marching units. Success is dependent on individual contribution to a highly-synchronized whole. In order to maximize the power of their ensemble concept, the evolution of Quantum series instruments remains focused not only on the performance of each individual voice, but also on its contribution to the timbre of the ensemble. Each instrument is carefully designed to fit sonically with the others, creating unprecedented balance and blend.

Quantum Mark II brings next generation features and technology to the Quantum series of marching instruments, focusing strongly on the pressures that modern visual demands place on performers. Much like participants in the marching arts, our brands strive for perfection. The continuous evolution of the Quantum series aims to facilitate the ever-increasing challenges of modern marching. The time has come for a new range of instruments that carefully balances accommodation of both musical and visual needs to redefine the state of the art. Recent advancements to every Quantum marching instrument ensure an elevated level of comfort and playability for the individual musician. The innovative Mark II designs remain unique in their vision of a cohesive ensemble result, helping to elevate your ensemble to the next level of performance.


QUANTUM MARK II LOGO DESIGN CONCEPT

The bold parallel lines of the Quantum Mark II logo convey strength, precision and unity. These relate directly to the durability, quality of manufacturing and ensemble concept of Quantum Mark II instruments, while also representing the power, dedication and harmony that exists within the best marching arts ensembles.

THE LOOK The Mapex lifestyle imagery captures today’s drum world using high-contrast black and white photography taken from the drummer’s perspective. We want to put the viewer in the drummer’s chair, because that’s who they are and that’s where they want to be. Never be the crowd.

Product as the hero Jupiter product photography displays the product in its most pristine condition. It’s a photo the reader can get lost in as they imagine themselves using one, owning one. From a technical stand point, shoot the instrument from a slightly lower angle to give the instrument a slightly taller stature. Not too low, around 1/3 the height of the instrument is plenty to give the instrument life.

Product as the hero Whether showing off the snare drums or bass drums or tenors, hardware or accessories, the photography should always display the product in its most pristine condition. The marching drums logo should be visible whenever possible. And makes drummers want to play and feel the dynamic responsiveness and articulation prevail.
