EFNOTE

The new Efnote Pro series - presented for the first time at the NAMM Show 2023 in Los Angeles - sets new standards in professional drum kit use on stage and in studios. For the first time, a stage box is included with the new PRO module. With its open system architecture, the module enables a variety of configurations to meet the individual requirements of drummers.The system consists of an e-drum module and a separate stage box, which together form a single unit. This offers trigger inputs for up to eight drums and seven cymbals as well as 12 individual XLR outputs, monitor inputs and headphone connections. With the bus mixer in the module, a pad or group can be freely assigned to each of the 12 outputs. In addition, each bus channel is equipped with a 2-band equaliser and a compressor, which ensures flexible adjustment of the sound. Of course, all sounds can also be edited in advance using pitch adjustment, equaliser or muffling. In addition, three ground lift switches are built into the stage box, one each for outputs 1-6, 7-12 and the monitor input.As you would expect from the Japanese manufacturer Efnote, the e-drum sets are confusingly similar to an acoustic drum kit. All drums are made of 6-ply birch wood and equipped with a special multi-trigger technology. This means that not only the look, but above all the feel, response and sound behaviour are absolutely realistic. This also applies to the cymbal pads, as they can be played on the entire surface and have a natural vibration behaviour.

The 4-piece Efnote 7 sets new standards with its excellent sound, multi-trigger technology and acoustic drum design.The extraordinarily lifelike sound is provided by elaborately produced multilayer samples. Each of the 101 factory sounds consists of a large number of individual samples, resulting in exceptionally high dynamics and realistic sound behaviour.The compact sound module has a sturdy metal housing and is operated via a touchscreen LC display. With its clearly structured menu, even inexperienced users can quickly access all functions and settings.All sounds can be edited and stored in the user memory according to personal preferences using functions such as tuning, muffling and EQ. A total of 128 memory locations are available for this purpose. The volume of the sounds can be individually adjusted via a virtual mixing console and routed to the outputs as required.The integrated metronome and rhythm box are ideal for practising. Songs and play-alongs can also be streamed into the module via an input socket and Bluetooth. The Efnote 7 module is also equipped with a USB audio interface that can be used to transfer 8 tracks digitally to the computer. In addition, up to four analogue outputs can be used. The Efnote 7 is equally suitable for live and studio use as well as for teaching purposes.The bass drum, snare and toms are made from high-quality, 6-ply birch shells and covered with double-layer mesh heads. To ensure unrivalled sensitivity and extremely precise response, all toms have a total of 3 trigger sensors and the snare has 4. The snare also has a third playing surface. This enables a 100% precise separation between cross stick and rim shot. Incorrect triggering of the triggers is therefore absolutely impossible. The 20" bass drum is equipped with 2 triggers and thus guarantees a consistent response, regardless of whether a single or double foot machine is used.All cymbal pads, including the hi-hat, can be played 360° from all sides and can be stopped via a choke sensor. A device that prevents the cymbals from twisting is therefore superfluous. The crash and ride cymbals are generally triple zone pads that can be played on the edge, the face and the bell.Thanks to the optical multi-trigger sensors, the hi-hat has an exceptionally fine sampling rate and extremely precise playing behaviour. This means that even complex playing figures at high speeds can be realised without any problems.Last but not least, the newly developed Elise sensor processor ensures a wide dynamic range as well as consistent and stable sampling with absolutely low latency.

The new Efnote 3B brings the proven quality of the EFNOTE 3 to an even more flexible format. With a larger 12" kick pad and a 12" hi-hat, it offers a realistic playing feel for beginners and advanced players. Ideal for playing at home, in the rehearsal room or at small gigs, the EFNOTE 3B remains just as powerful and user-friendly as its predecessor thanks to the tried-and-tested sound module.

The 5-piece Efnote 5X sets new standards with its excellent sound, multi-trigger technology and acoustic drum design.Elaborately produced multilayer samples ensure the outstandingly lifelike sound. Each of the 98 factory sounds consists of a large number of individual samples, resulting in an exceptionally high dynamic range and lifelike sound behaviour.The compact sound module has a sturdy metal housing and is operated via a touch screen LC display. With its clearly structured menu, even inexperienced users can quickly access all functions and settings.All sounds can be edited and stored in the user memory using functions such as tuning, muffling and EQ. A total of 128 memory locations are available for this purpose. There is also a virtual mixer that can be used to adjust the volume of the sounds individually and route them to the outputs as required.The integrated metronome and rhythm box are ideal for practising. Songs and play-alongs can also be streamed to the module via Bluetooth. The EFNOTE 5 module is also equipped with a USB audio interface that can be used to transfer 8 tracks digitally to the computer. In addition, up to four analogue outputs can be used. The Efnote 5X is equally suitable for live and studio use as well as for teaching purposes.The bass drum, snare and toms are made from high-quality, 6-ply birch shells and covered with double-layer mesh heads. To ensure unrivalled sensitivity and extremely precise response, all toms and the snare have a total of 3 trigger sensors. The snare also has a third playing surface. This enables a 100% precise separation between cross stick and rim shot. Incorrect triggering of the triggers is therefore absolutely impossible. The 16 bass drum is equipped with 2 triggers and thus guarantees a consistent response, regardless of whether a single or double foot machine is used.All cymbal pads, including the hi-hat, can be played 360° from all sides and can be stopped via a choke sensor. This means that a device that prevents the cymbals from turning is no longer necessary. The crash and ride cymbals are generally triple zone pads that can be played on the rim, the top and the bell.Thanks to the optical multi-trigger sensors, the hi-hat has an exceptionally fine sampling rate and extremely precise playing behaviour. This means that even complex playing figures at high speeds can be realised without any problems.Last but not least, the newly developed Elise sensor processor ensures a wide dynamic range as well as consistent and stable sampling with absolutely low latency.

Unveiled at NAMM 2024, the new EFNOTE mini is a breath of fresh air on the e-drum market and makes drummers' hearts beat faster. This small but mighty set will delight young and old alike and is ideal for practising in small spaces. Whether in the children's room, living room or rehearsal room - with this compact e-drum set, the days of lack of space are a thing of the past.With a footprint of just 115 x 70 cm, the electronic drum kit offers everything you need. A module with multilayer samples in the usual quality of the Japanese manufacturer. These can of course be adjusted with an equaliser, muffling, tuning or the 8 ambience effects. In addition to a metronome, the module also offers an integrated audio and MIDI interface, which can also be used to record with a sequencer on a computer or to control other drum tools. The Bluetooth receiver can be used to transfer music to the module for practice purposes.With the 14" bass drum, a 10" snare with three zones, the 12" hi-hat and the 16" ride, also with three zones, and the 8" splash, 8" tom tom and 10" stand tom with two zones, the set is the most compact of its kind.The set can also be extended with an additional cymbal pad or a tom.

Once again, Efnote sets new standards and launches the world's first effect crash pad and cymbal staker for electric drums with the 7X set.All 241 sounds consist of a large number of individual samples, the so-called multilayer samples, which are distributed over a total of 101 instrument presets and guarantee an exceptionally high dynamic range as well as an unmistakably realistic sound behaviour.The compact sound module has a sturdy metal housing and is operated via a touchscreen LC display.

The Efnote Pro is a professional e-drum set that has caused quite a stir, not least because of the module and the accompanying stage box. For the first time worldwide, the special needs of musicians, sound engineers and music producers were taken into account and realised during development.With its open system architecture, the module enables a variety of configurations to meet the individual requirements of drummers.The system consists of an e-drum module and a separate stagebox, which together form a single unit. This offers trigger inputs for up to eight drums and seven cymbals as well as 12 individual XLR outputs, monitor inputs and headphone connections.With the bus mixer in the module, a pad or group can be freely assigned to each of the 12 outputs.

This means that not only the acoustics but above all the playing feel, response and sound behaviour are absolutely realistic. This also applies to the cymbal pads, as they can be played on the entire surface and have a natural vibration behaviour.This makes the Pro 500 and Pro 700 series sets particularly suitable for professional applications at live concerts on stages and recordings in recording studios. In order to cover the widest possible range of applications, the sets from the 500 series are more suitable for club gigs, rehearsal rooms or hobby rooms due to their smaller shell sizes, such as the 16" kick drum. In the 700 series, on the other hand, the sets are based on a 20" kick drum, which is why they are particularly advantageous for use on larger stages.Ultimately, artistic freedom determines which set or configuration is used in the respective situation.The flexibility required for this is ensured by the extensive range on offer. In addition to the pre-configured sets, two expansion packs and all drum pads are also available individually.
