Horizontal Machine
Andy S. (West Sacramento, CA, US)
Awesome piece of equipment

Awesome piece of equipment. Allows me to get my triangles at the same relative height under the cymbal using a 10 in triangle. I love my triangle and finger cymbal machines.

Andy, thank you for being such an awesome customer. I really appreciate your continued support. Billy

Triangle Machine

The Miller Machine is a life (and job) saver!!

I bought it specifically for musical where I had to play drumset and percussion. Some of the percussion was acoustic but the most of it (timpani, bell tree, mark tree, castanets, etc) were electronic using a midi keyboard and MainStage software. I had a hard time switching channels between the timpani and percussion which included the triangle and I kept missing cues where the triangle was really important and exposed. Long story short, being able to mount the triangle and not have to worry about switching from sticks to a triangle beater ensures that I played the triangle on time (and saved me from crazy looks from the MD 😂). The only issue with the Miller Machine so far is figuring out how far in and out to position the beater in order to play the right dynamic. There were even a few times where I was supposed to play at a piano or mezzo piano level and in trying to not hit it too hard, it wasn’t quiet enough for the beater to contact the triangle. I’m sure I’ll figure that out over time with more use.

Hi DeShawndre,
Thank you so much for taking the time to share your Triangle Machine review! I do appreciate your feedback on how to control the dynamics, and am confident that over time, you'll become more comfortable with it. If you do have any questions, don't hesitate to reach out. Billy

Great addition to my collection.

The Horizontal Mount is wonderful. Things a great option to mount a triangle and finger cymbal (if I’m not using a machine for the FC). It’s also a great option for a larger triangle.
Looking forward to using it in upcoming gigs.

Hi Ivan, thank you for taking the time to leave a Horizontal Machine review! Glad it's working out for you. Billy

Just what I needed

I needed to play a finger cymbal within a multi instrument set up. I found the perfect solution in this Miller Machine. It is sensitive to the touch so dynamics are easy. The bright red handle makes it easy to see peripherally. I’m very happy to have found this triangle/ finger cymbal trigger.

Thank you for this wonderful review Bobby! I'm glad the Machine worked out for you. Billy

I recently purchased the finger cymbal machine from Billy Miller and used it along with the triangle machine for “ Sunday in the Park with George”. Highly recommend both machines. Customer service is terrific!

Very Versatile!

I have been using the Finger Cymbal Machine in many different situation! It is such a useful instrument in my toolbox! Here are three different scenarios where I have used it.
1. Obviously, it is a must have for any Pit percussion setting. I most recently used it for a local version of Mean Girls. I was hired for the auxiliary book. I also used the triangle machine for this set up.
2. I used it on stage in a concert setting when I was hired to play Tatarian Dances by Elena Roussanova Lucas. The finger cymbal part was easily heard over the orchestra.
3. Finally, I use it when my band performs acoustic gigs. I play congas and always have it set up on my right side. It really adds a lot to this type of setting.

Cool, love this, thank you Larry! Billy

The beaters that beat all

Hands down the best triangle beaters out there.

Thank you Jeff! Have fun on the Wicked Tour. Billy

The Triangle Machine Plus has been a solid addition to my setup. It’s made transitions in the pit much smoother, and I really appreciate how adjustable it is—you can easily find the sweet spot for sound and technique. Whether I’m playing with a stick or hand, it’s reliable and easy to control. It’s a well-designed tool that fits seamlessly into busy setups. Definitely a 5-star product.

Bringing both of my machines up to current spec with the upgrade kits and they arrived fast (even across the pond) and were easy to retrofit and swap over. Thanks Billy!

Awesome!

We purchased two Miller Machines for our pit orchestra. One for Drum Set and another for our percussionist! What a great tool to make for quick transitions while still getting a pure triangle sound!

Wonderful, thank you Mark!
