Mic your drums in seconds
Attach the EAD10 sensor to any acoustic drum set and you will have a high-quality, stereo image of your entire kit in seconds. You can instantly hear studio-quality sound from your headphones or PA system. Also, you can record the sound to a module, smart device, USB flash drive or computer.
Make your drums do more
The EAD10 module is intuitive to operate and it can instantly transform your acoustic drum sound. You can also easily make it a hybrid drum kit by connecting additional triggers or pads. Combining EAD10 with a low-volume drum kit using mesh heads and low-volume cymbals leads to the birth of an entirely new kit. Playing PCM sound with triggers attached to each drum and capturing the raw sound of the cymbal from the sensor allows a low-volume experience while realistic drum sounds are output through the headphones and/or speakers.
Play with the world, share with the world
EAD10 allows you to play along with your favorite artists from your music library – just connect your smart device via an aux cable or over USB. The free iOS/Android Rec'n'Share app allows you to create stunning audio and video and easily share it directly from your mobile device. You can also use the app for practice by adding a metronome to your favorite music.
Add triggers and pads
EAD10 can connect to a maximum of six triggers and pads, including the bass drum trigger of the sensor, to augment your kit with percussion, electronic sounds and loops and expand your range of expression.
Sensor unit
The sensor unit of EAD10 comprises a specially-developed X-Y stereo microphone sensor and trigger sensors, allowing you to capture a balanced recording of the entire kit by placing this at the center of the kit itself.
Microphone capsule
The microphone capsule is a newly-developed microphone that comes equipped with the ultra-high sound pressure resistance and strong noise resistance suitable for recording drums. The entire sensor unit, including the grill that covers the microphone capsule, incorporates an acoustical design that allows for the adjustment of directivity and frequency characteristics. The preamplifier is equipped with custom parts and the mic itself is designed to draw out the maximum dynamic range of a drum kit while achieving the balance ideal for recording, allowing for clear, dynamic sounds.
The module
The main unit of EAD10 is designed with ease of use in mind. The left side of the main unit comes equipped with large knobs that can easily be adjusted mid-performance, so that the main control functions like volume and preset scene can be accessed easily. LED indicators have been added to the preset scene controls of reverb, effect and trigger to make them more visible. This allows for quick and intuitive adjustment on even the darkest of stages. The buttons and LCD display on the right allow for even more detailed adjustments. It also comes equipped with many high-quality effects and PCM sound sources used in Yamaha electronic musical instruments.
Headphone amp
A high-performance headphone amplifier was developed specifically for this unit and delivers power and performance that cannot be outdone by the dynamic sounds of acoustic drums.
Talkback function
A player's voice can be captured by the microphone of the unit sensor by operating the mic button on the module or by using a footswitch (sold separately), making it perfect for video creation and web lessons. The talkback feature instantly changes the mic gain to a level that makes your voice easy to hear, and when recording using the Rec'n'Share app it also enables you to hear your voice on video when you stop playing. Turning off talkback returns the mic gain to its original setting.
Click output assignment
Being able to work with a click track is an important skill for any drummer. EAD10 provides several options for routing the click, with destinations including headphones, main outputs and USB so you can hear it in live performance as well as while recording. Since the click is the tempo guide, being able to hear it clearly creates a solid audio reference for your groove. The click output assignment feature makes it easy for you to ascertain whether your performance is in sync with the click, or if you're ahead of or behind the beat, vital for improving your drumming skills.
Noise gate
If you're recording in a noisy environment, EAD10's microphone noise gate can be used to filter out background noise by setting a threshold that ensures the noise will be filtered out but your drums will still come through loud and clear. This is a great way to prevent background stage noise or audience chatter from sneaking into your performance between songs. It's also useful in situations where you need to filter out environmental sounds like the 'whoosh' coming from an air conditioner and other sounds you might not hear while playing but will definitely hear once you stop.
Mesh heads and low-volume drum sets
EAD10 supports an optional data file that includes 42 scene presets designed for consistent, accurate triggering from mesh heads. They allow you to construct an incredibly realistic, low-volume practice or performance drum set while preserving all the other functions of EAD10.
