The Zildjian ALCHEM-E Series Gold EX Drum Kit (ZAGEX)

The World’s Most Immersive Electronic Drumming Experience, 400 Years In The Making:
Introducing the ALL-NEW lineup of Zildjian ALCHEM-E Series drum kits. Zildjian set out to create the most realistic, authentic, immersive playing experience for drummers of nearly every level with a full range of electronic hybrid kits, from our more compact ALCHEM-E Bronze and Bronze EX, to our flagship ALCHEM-E Gold and Gold EX, all kits showcase the revolutionary Zildjian E-Family cymbals and the feature-filled Zildjian E-Vault (ZEV1) drum module. Zildjian ALCHEM-E Series drums use the industry’s most responsive triggering configuration, allowing you to play with sticks, mallets, and even brushes! Whether you’re an aspiring drummer looking to level up your experience or a seasoned pro wanting the ultimate in authenticity, or anywhere in between, the lineup of Zildjian ALCHEM-E Series kits has you covered.

Welcome to the Zildjian E-FAMILY:
Bridging the gap between acoustic and electronic, the new Zildjian E-Family is a series of foundationally superior electronic cymbals that give drummers a completely immersive drumming experience. Combining centuries of cymbal making knowledge with decades of electronic percussion development expertise, the Zildjian E-Family of cymbals offers the most authentic acoustic cymbal feel, response, and aesthetic with never-before experienced triggering accuracy and sensitivity, allowing drummers to truly express themselves on their instrument. Rubber pads don’t feel like cymbals, they don’t respond like cymbals, they don’t look like cymbals, and they simply cannot match the dynamic range and natural nuance of the Zildjian E-Family.

Using proprietary algorithm-driven technology known as the Zildjian Trigger System, Zildjian E-FAMILY cymbals provide vastly superior sensitivity and response compared to any traditional rubber or metal cymbal pad on the market. These L80 alloy cymbals are crafted in Zildjian’s Norwell, MA foundry and are available in true-to-life sizes featuring advanced sensor technology to give drummers an experience unlike anything available on the market today, and something many never even thought possible! All cymbals (Crashes, Rides, and Hi-Hats) feature 3-zone playability (bell, bow, and edge), consistent 360-degree triggering, and adjustable, touch-sensitive 360-degree top and bottom cymbal choking. These cymbals (NOT CYMBAL PADS!) have the look, feel, and responsiveness of acoustic cymbals, but without the volume, and a blasted traditional finish that is simply stunning. These cymbals offer the industry’s most dynamic, realistic, and responsive electronic cymbal solution. This in combination with access to a vast range of sounds in the Zildjian Sound Library with the Zildjian module, will equip you with everything necessary to craft the perfect cymbal or percussive sound for any musical context.

Unlock the Zildjian E-VAULT:
The new Zildjian E-VAULT drum module creates a level of authenticity of sound that completely immerses you into the playing experience. Making advances on time-tested sampling techniques, the Zildjian E-VAULT sound library offers an expansive collection of carefully curated, useful, high-quality drum, cymbal, and percussion sounds. Nothing overly processed, nothing gimmicky, just pure acoustic tone and feel. Best of all, you’ll have access to nearly the full catalog of Zildjian cymbals (past, present, and future) to create and update your dream set up and dial in your personal sound. All of this is accessible through intuitive navigation and a premium 5.5” color touch display.
