Mic'ing up and recording drums has always been something of a dark art. From the type and number of microphones you're supposed to use, to where you're supposed to put them, every producer or sound engineer is likely to give you a slightly different answer - and there's no guarantee the sound you'll end up with is the sound you want.
Our new EAD Electro-Acoustic Drum system changes everything. Combining advanced digital signal processing (DSP) with top-quality effects and samples, the EAD module and sensor turn your live playing into a production-ready track in realtime - and you can change the sound and effect as wanted.
It's perfect for recording, practising and gigging - and it's super-easy to setup.
Join us instore on 7th December when top drummer and EAD expert Simon Edgoose will be in store to put the EAD through its paces, answer your questions and let you try it first hand.
