EFNOTE PRO 706 Progressive 6pc Electronic Stage Drum Kit

Born from the desire to advance the development of electronic drums and pursue flexible ideas that aren’t restricted by cost, EFNOTE PRO drums are designed to digitise your drum riser and elevate your performance. This full-sized drum setup is built around a 20 x 15″ kick drum – perfect on stage, or in studio, delivering an immersive visual and musical experience to your audience!

Description

With EFNOTE PRO, you no longer need to worry about mic choice or placement, drum tuning, head replacement, or maintenance before your gig. Simply assign it's 12-channel balanced outputs as you please, using stereo or mono sends for signals like kick, snare, toms, cymbals, click, and even an external sampling pad. Each channel boasts a High Pass Filter, 2-band EQ, dedicated compressors for Bus 1-6, and ground lift switches, giving you an incredible amount of control over your sounds. The stage box also features a 2-channel XLR balanced Monitor In connector for a monitoring return from FOH, and a 2-channel TS balanced Line In for connecting an external sampling/percussion pad.

No More Acrylic Panel

EFNOTE PRO drums negate the need to isolate your drummer from the rest of the band on stage, leaving them to freely engage with their bandmates and audience - eliminating mic bleed and feedback issues on stage to deliver sounds to FOH with impressive articulation, balance, and control.

Flexibility for All Music

Capable of supporting up to 7 shells and 8 cymbals, all pads of the EFNOTE PRO are individually wired, so users can adapt to any musical environment or situation. Save and load all sound settings quickly and easily to suit changes in player or set-lists at any time, and with 12-channel multitrack USB audio and 16-channel USB MIDI running simultaneously, you get convenient and instant access to editing for writing and production sessions, or perfecting your performance. Bluetooth connectivity provides convenient wireless connection for you to jam along to your favorite songs in your music library.

Design

The innovative sound module boasts a two-piece design that delivers unmatched performance and expandability for working professionals. The robust floor-standing base unit features a heavy-duty construction and rugged, reliable cable connections, and the compact, low-profile touch screen LCD features a streamlined, high-definition interface design that's bright enough to navigate on even the darkest of stages. The underneath of the control surface is equipped with a discrete foot stage light with adjustable brightness to assist with the setup and adjustment of the stage box - perfect for setting up on dark stages.

Sound

EFNOTE PRO drums features a collection of iconic drum sets, which faithfully recreate every nuance and subtlety of aged shells with raw and organic sounds that don't sound synthetic or electronic. With shell sounds like Maple, Birch, acrylic, steel, aluminum, brass, titanium, and even a towel-muted shell sound, and a diverse library of cymbals that range from bright and modern, to dark and vintage, EFNOTE drums cover a lot of sonic ground. With modern trash, effect, and stacked cymbal sounds, and the ability to layer elements such as tambourines and EDM drums over the fundamental drum sounds, you can reinforce the attack of your drums, or create immersive new textures for your songs to live in.

The high-powered headphone amplifier features both a ¼" and a ⅛" headphone jack, which can be used simultaneously, with a dedicated 2x headphone amp circuit for increased loudness and a high-quality DA converter and audio circuit to provide drummers with pristine audio to play along with.

Playability

With five 2-zone inputs for toms, six 3-zone and two 2-zone inputs for cymbals, and individual traditional TRS connectors for triggers, the EFNOTE PRO drums let you build custom configurations to suit any style or stage. The Birch shells employ 2-ply mesh drum heads for a silent stroke and gratifying playing experience, and feature multi-sensors to deliver realistic, high-fidelity sound. EFNOTE PRO drums also feature a full lineup of cutting-edge cymbals, ranging from 8" to 20", with a new 18" china cymbal and 17" effect cymbal with stackable STAK mount - the first of their kind.

Driven by an evolved version of the exclusive ELISE Sensing Processor 2.0, EFNOTE PRO drums deliver greater sensitivity for capturing every nuance and detail of your playing. Featuring a groundbreaking multi-optical design, the three dimensional movement of the hi-hats are captured using Tru-Motion technology and a 360° free-swinging top and bottom cymbal design - providing drummers with an unparalleled level of expressiveness.

Operation

Using the high-definition LCD touch screen, you get instant control over drum tuning and muffling and cymbal pitch and sustain - even while playing - and you even have the ability to change kits completely with a simple swipe of the screen. Pad levels are displayed in decibels for easy adjustment, and Global Pan gives you total control over your stereo image. With One-Touch Recording and Playback, you can effortlessly record grooves and fills as you please - an incredibly handy feature during sound check - allowing you to record a beat, and then play it back to check the sound out front, or store/recall recorded drum-play data to a USB flash drive.

The versatile metronome is adjustable in 0.1 bpm increments, and features 7 different click sounds to find one that works for you. The convenient Set-List feature allows you to configure kits and tempo for each song, with customizable descriptions and colors for easy navigation. Finally, an intuitive Trigger adjustment gives you a streamlined graphical interface to find the perfect sensitivity for your triggers.
