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. 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 7X 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 7X is convincing in the rehearsal room and on stage, but is also an eye-catcher in any large living room. 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 therefore 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.
