DruML S1 - 14” Digital Snare | Early Adopter Edition

The Early Adopter Edition is being made in limited quantities for reviewers, influencers, and folks wanting to live on the bleeding edge.  We will do our best to keep restocking weekly.

While the hardware configuration could evolve as feedback comes in, this is a fully working high-speed MIDI device that is great to play through a VST, but also holds its own as a purely analog drum.

The DruML S1 14" comes packed with features at an affordable price.

Under the hood, we're using state-of-the-art neural networks that have been trained to segment waveform peaks, detect articulation types,  and  positions.  Our goal is an architecture that is fun to play, hyper-realistic, and highly generalizable to new hardware types (and new instruments entirely).  

We will be continually updating the firmware with re-trained models, new features, and support for additional VSTs as time goes on.

Primary Specs:

• Fully configurable over MIDI via your browser with no drivers required
• Positional sensing and multi-zone support
• Hand Sensing (For cross-stick, etc)
• Supports all major articulations (Positional mesh sensing, rim shot, rim click, rim strike, cross stick, flam, muted mesh)
• Custom MIDI mappings to work with any VST
• Sub-1ms waveform classification and ultra-low-latency USB
  
• On-board quantized 8-bit neural networks for real-time strike detection and classification
• 5x 35mm sensors across the mesh head to minimize hotspots and ensure realistic feel
  
• Analog pass-through port so you can use it like a regular dual zone Snare if you want to just practice or aren’t ready to use a VST/digital module
• Support for Superior Drummer 3 / Steven Slate presets out of the box
• Capable of software updates over USB
