DW Drums | DWe Drum Kits + DWe Cymbal Packs
Drummers everywhere can now shop DW’s first-ever acoustic and electronic convertible drum set to feature wireless technology at Chicago Drum Exchange!
Blending authentic DW shells with innovative electronics, DWe drum kits and cymbals are engineered for expression with the aim of providing the most natural feel of any electronic cymbals available.
DW Drums, Electrified
Designed and manufactured in the DW Drums factory in California, DWe platforms are built using handcrafted acoustic shells and a proprietary wireless ecosystem, letting drummers decide how they want to play given any situation.
Leveraging five decades of American-made craftsmanship and innovation, DWe offers the same premium quality you expect from Drum Workshop and can be played as a Pure Maple acoustic drum set. Or, DWe can be played as a completely wireless electronic kit!
Wireless Percussion Made Simple
DWe drums are ready to play straight out of the box with no wires or cables required. Just sit down and play to connect your drums to your included wireless DrumLink hub that connects to your computer or audio interface.
Powered by the included DW Soundworks software, DWe drums connect to your computer through a low-latency wireless connection via the provided DrumLink USB hub. Connect DW Soundworks to any DAW, provide multi-channel outputs, or hook it up to your favorite module. Whatever way you connect to DW Soundworks, this proprietary software provides complete sound customization and creation using advanced trigger settings and editing capabilities, providing up to 18 layers of multi-articulation definition per instrument.
DWe Cymbal Packs
Designed to provide a natural feel, DWe cymbals provide an authentic metal playing surface, so they are not silent. DWe 4-piece wireless DWe Cymbal Pack includes a full setup of electronic DWe cymbals, all of which feature 3 playing zones (edge, bow, bell), edge choke, and 360-degree playing surfaces.
The Crash/Ride cymbals can all be choked like a traditional cymbal simply by squeezing the edge, meanwhile also fitting any traditional cymbal stand and offering a cable-free profile.
