Historical Context and Positioning in the Range
Part of the Evans Hybrid ecosystem, this additional sensor fits within the Sensory Percussion philosophy: transforming an acoustic drum kit into a highly nuanced hybrid instrument without losing the playing feel. It complements the Sensory Percussion Sound System by allowing you to equip more drums and refine your setup according to your studio or touring needs.
Who This Drum/Sensor Is For
This sensor is aimed at intermediate to expert drummers seeking control, precision, and new textures, whether in electronic music, pop, rock, metal, experimental genres, or for sound design in the studio. Ideal if you want to assign different sounds, articulations, and behaviors depending on the striking zones.
Features and Innovations
Each sensor is designed for quick installation and reliable use in real-world conditions. It measures detailed playing information (including velocity and timbre) to achieve more nuanced performances than ever before, while remaining compatible with almost all toms, snares, and bass drums. Up to 7 sensors can be used simultaneously with the Evans Hybrid Portal audio interface within a Sensory Percussion setup.
Sound Character
Rather than influencing the sound through the wood, this sensor acts as a "gesture microphone": it finely translates your attack, dynamics, and striking color to control sounds and effects with realism. The result: more variation, nuance, and precision while maintaining the natural feel of your acoustic drum kit.
