The Simplest Drum PA Solution Ever
Drummers have always found it hard to keep their sound the same from venue to venue. Different rooms, engineers and stage setups can all change how the drums sound. With the EAD50 and its sensor unit (DSU50), you can bring your sound with you wherever you play.
The Sensor unit uses a pair of custom microphones that capture the entire drum set from a single position. These use technology normally found in high-end studio mics, giving you a clean, accurate drum sound while reducing the sound of the room which is normally picked up by traditional drum microphones.
The EAD50 takes the audio from the sensor unit and processes for use with PAs or recording setups. You can blend the natural mic sound with samples, and add effects to create the tone you want. You can use the presets to get started or customise everything depending on your knowledge.
Because everything is done in one box, setup is quick, simple and fully repeatable. Your sound stays the same every time you play.
From small clubs to large stages, the EAD50 changes how drum miking works. It’s an easy, reliable way to get a great drum sound anywhere.

Unleash the Drummer's Full Expression
The EAD50 let you shape your sound how you want. Just as guitarists use amps and pedals, drummers can now create anything from subtle room sounds to powerful, studio-style effects in seconds.
For hands-on control, the six assignable Modifier knobs let you adjust almost any settings to suit you. You can fine-tune your sound quickly and easily, even while you play.
The EAD Touch editor app (Android, iOS and Mac) lets you edit everything on a familiar touch screen. You can connect wirelessly from your own devices for maximum ease.
The EAD50 lets you plug in pads and/or triggers so you can add or layer sounds or build a hybrid kit that suits the way you play.
The EAD50 greatly expands your creative and sonic options and opens up new ways to shape your drum sound.
Expand Your Activities and Enjoyment
Capture multitrack audio via USB, sample or loop your own playing, and connect wirelessly through Bluetooth to work seamlessly with the EAD Touch App and Rec’n’Share.
It supports not only live PA operation, but also home practice, online lessons, studio recording, social media content creation, workshops, and seminars with equal flexibility.
Studio Quality Sound From Your Acoustic Drums
EAD (Electronic Acoustic Drum) is Yamaha’s unique system that brings electronic expandability to acoustic drums.
By simply attaching a dedicated sensor containing two microphone capsules and a trigger to your bass drum, you can capture the sound of your entire kit in high-quality stereo and combine it with built-in effects and sound sources for greater expression.
The EAD50’s studio-grade preamp and advanced digital engine refine these signals into a clear, powerful mix that fits any PA environment. By integrating additional microphones, triggers, effects, mixer functions, and more into one compact unit, the EAD50 dramatically reduces setup complexity and gives drummers stable, reliable control over their sound.
Practice/Online lesson
The EAD50 supports everything from daily practice to online lessons in one compact, easy-to-use system.
You can play along with your favourite songs from your phone or tablet via Bluetooth, or use a USB thumb drive with your full music library. Whether you’re having a relaxed practice session or working on your technique, the EAD50 adjusts to your needs.
It’s also excellent for online lessons. The Talk function lets you switch easily between your drum sound and your speaking voice, so communication stays clear for both teacher and student.
With the Rec’n’Share app, you can film yourself or students with great audio straight from a smartphone—no complicated setup needed.
The EAD50 brings practice, teaching and content creation together in one place, with professional sound quality wherever you are.
