Gewa G9 Drum Workstation

GEWA began developing the G9 digital drumset almost 8 years ago. The brief was to develop something outstanding, setting a new benchmark in sound quality, playability, and useability. Technology “Made in Germany” with software developed across Europe!

A great collaboration between some of the world's leading engineers has led them BEYOND DIGITAL DRUMS.

The beating heart of the G9 is undoubtedly the Drum Workstation. This 10" touch screen module is incredibly powerful yet surprisingly intuitive. The multi-chip architecture designates specific processing power to sound generation, trigger detection, and the touch screen user interface. Each chip has its own purpose and can therefore perform its task with consummate ease. This class-leading technology means you're able to configure your drums in ways that have been previously unattainable. Real acoustic drums were sampled at the famous Funkhaus Studios in Berlin, but not just close up. The ambient sounds of the room were also recorded and these can be dialed in with ease. This functionality allows you to easily add an incredible natural ambient sound to your drums with just one fader!

There are almost endless possibilities to record your drumming with the G9 Workstation. You can use the two master outputs, the eight direct out channels, or connect the G9 via USB directly to your PC or Mac. You can easily use it as a plug `n play sound interface with 8 channels plus MIDI functionality. Thanks to the touch screen, every function is right at your fingertips and you can set up your own configuration within seconds!
