Drums, Cymbals and Percussion Instrument at Drum Center of Portsmouth

If you can afford the price tag, the EF Note Pro is the drum set to get.

The 12-Channel Balanced XLR Stage Box is the bomb when it comes to live performances... trust me, your sound engineer will be suddenly become your best friend. For live gigs, my band uses a Soundcraft Ui24R 24-Channel Digital Mixer. Since I'm play a EF Note 501 set, I only use use 10 channels, but that's 10 discrete channels for each drum pad/cymbal.

For multi-track recording, the 12-channel USB audio straight into a DAW is awesome. The EF Note Pro unit has a lot of customizability to adjust the bus mix for each channel including a MIDI dump track (in addition to the audio tracks). This allows the ability to use Toontrack Superior Drummer 3 with the EF Note tracks. Lots of options in the post production recording stage.

The latest firmware update allows custom samples to be imported into the stage box. I don't need to explain why that is a great addition.

Finally, the real birch wood shells are wonderful to play with. They look great on stage and provide the mental comfortability of a real drum set.

At this price range, you have a few choices (Roland VAD516)... but overall I think the EF Note is a great fit.

Beautiful kit! Sounds great, looks great, and very versatile. Only issue is the floor tom leg locks slip off easy, so be careful. Price has went way up compared to original price.

really great sounding cymbal

GREAT sticks! Love the feel, comfort and response in my hands. Looking forward to using them on my upcoming new kit!

I bought this top hat cymba to pair with a Sabian Fusion bottom, and let me tell you I enjoy playing on it. This top feels like melted butter when playing it, the fusion bottom with the air holes on the bell don't get airlock just crisp nice sticking.

I needed a new 18" crash but since I'm not gigging anymore I didn't want to spend a lot of money. It took me a long time to decide which Avenir line to purchase from. Very happy with this Vantage. It sounds fantastic and blends nicely with my old Zildjian A's. It is bright but low pitched and could fit any style of music. I plan on getting a 20 inch crash soon.

It's functional and had some great advice at the store by a sales advisor who used one previously.

It was great. 😎

Solid strong hoops

It is awesome! It's just what I was looking for, it explodes quickly and decay is really fast! Love it!

This small part totally transforms the Cobra pedal into a smooth effortless wonder.

This sounds every bit as good as any other high end China I’ve had, and I would say it sounds very similar to the Zildjian K 19” I had over 20 years ago. Killer cymbal! I was hesitant to give these cymbals a try… glad I did, and the 2 year warranty is a big bonus.

10 OUT OF 10!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Perfect set of Tama Drums Beautiful in every way! Got to Love the Tama sound . Like Thunder if you want or a steady snappy beat if it is needed. Sabbathdrummer Tucson Az

My new Meinl Hand Bale is a great sounding timbale style drum that can be mounted easily for Hand or stick playing,in which the rim of this cool drum has a section where the rim is sunken in for Hand playing or a good portion for stick playing. Thank you : Drum Center Of Portsmouth!!
