Description

The Pearl e/Merge Hybrid Electronic Drum Kit marks a major step forward in electronic drumming, bringing together Pearlโ€™s acoustic heritage with Korgโ€™s electronic innovation. Designed by a true drum manufacturer, the e/Merge delivers an authentic, acoustic-like playing experience that feels immediately familiar under the sticks. The MDL1 module provides a deep library of natural Pearl drum sounds and the system is built to perform equally well in professional studios, rehearsal environments and live performance settings.

What truly sets the e/Merge apart is the combination of Korgโ€™s Wave Trigger Technology, Pearlโ€™s acoustic-style PUREtouch pads and full-size playing surfaces. With a 14โ€ณ snare, 10โ€ณ, 12โ€ณ and 14โ€ณ toms, an 18โ€ณ x 12โ€ณ kick and expressive PUREtouch cymbals, the kit reacts musically to every nuance of your playing. The 18โ€ณ three-zone ride, 15โ€ณ two-zone crash and 14โ€ณ two-zone hi-hats deliver realistic articulation and choke response, all mounted securely on Pearlโ€™s chrome-plated Icon e/Rack for a professional, road-ready setup.
