With the BT8 8-piece wireless electronic drum set, the E-Flex series from ddrum is back and better than ever. Powered by its unobtrusive and easy-to-navigate module, the BT8 supplies 20 diverse preset drum kits to choose from, plus a metronome for practicing your time and Bluetooth connectivity for your smart device so you can jam out to your favorite tunes. This package comprises three rubber-edged 9-inch cymbal pads, three mesh-padded 6-inch toms, a dual-zone mesh 6-inch snare, and a sturdy kick tower with an accompanying double-chain-drive kick pedal. You’ll also receive a wireless hi-hat foot controller, drum throne, drumstick holder, and a pair of drumsticks to help you get drumming right out of the box. Plus, given all facets of the BT8 link via Bluetooth, you won’t have to worry about the clutter and undependability of complex cabling. A perfect kit for beginners, practice time, quiet drumming, and smaller spaces, the ddrum E-Flex BT8 electronic drum set is a top pick among timekeepers here at Sweetwater.





Engineered for stable, accurate play





The BT8 supplies the 8-piece versatility to give drummers that balanced kit feel, even within its compact package. Its 6-inch mesh drum pads make for not only quieter play, but a response that is truer to drumheads than its rubber counterparts. The dual-zone snare drum adds an extra degree of realism to your backbeats and even permits tension adjustment to customize a feel that’s right for your playing style. Included cymbal pads for hi-hat, crash, and ride applications all feature rubber striking surfaces to better simulate the rebound of bronze. Also, the crash and ride feature choking capabilities (plus a bell zone for the ride), enabling quick cutoffs and fast decaying effects that stop on a dime. Schemed in ddrum’s iconic black and red finish, this is one electronic drum set you can count on to look the part.





You’ll quickly discover that the E-Flex was devised with stability in mind. Braced with dual crossbars for the drum and cymbal pads and sturdily reinforced at the base with longer horizontal legs, the E-Flex remains unwaveringly upright, even at the disposal of heavy-handed drummers. This reinforcement rings true at the kick tower as well, ensuring that you can pattern to your heart’s content without worrying about your passion outplaying the kit.





Dutifully wireless 20-kit module





All-Bluetooth operation via integrated receivers on each pad means you can say goodbye to all the complexities of cable routing and poor connection points. The brain of the BT8 itself houses a diverse palette of 20 preset kits to give every drummer a solid starting point for their rhythms. In addition to these 20 kits, drummers are also afforded a conveniently built-in metronome for detailed time practice between tunes. Additionally, thanks to its universal Bluetooth operation, the BT8 module allows players to connect their smart devices for streaming and playing along to their favorite tracks and practice songs. A master volume leveler with an enlarged dial also makes it easy to adjust your headphone volume to keep things at a perfectly comfortable level.





The BT8’s brain has one more trick up its sleeve: Double Bass Mode! Switch to this function, and your hi-hat’s foot controller instantly becomes a second bass drum pedal. Perfect for metal and hard-rock players or the drummer just looking to improve their chops, Double Bass Mode is an exciting, value-packed mod that has percussionists at Sweetwater rejoicing.





All-inclusive extras





On top of its navigable interface and streamlined wireless operation, the BT8 comes loaded with essentials that will get you up-and-drumming, right from day one. First of all, pedals are provided, including a wireless foot controller for opening and closing the hi-hats as well as an authoritative and ultra-responsive dual-chain-drive kick drum pedal. A double-braced, ddrum-branded throne gives you a nice seat right off the bat, while an included drumstick holder finds VIP seating for your sticks. And speaking of sticks, ddrum tossed in a free pair to get you grooving instantly!





E-Flex: an eDrum for everyone





Are your drum sessions limited to the confines of an apartment, bedroom, dorm room, or crowded corner of the studio? A series as optimized and compact as the E-Flex makes the perfect percussive solution for drummers working in smaller spaces. But even if space isn’t a concern, the comprehensive nature of the E-Flex series makes it an enticement for all players to hop behind and start drumming. Whether you’re seeking a stellar starter set, a quiet practice alternative to your acoustic kit, or simply a down-sized groove station for jamming on your own terms, the E-Flex series is ready when you are.
