Pearl once again redefines the electronic percussion experience by introducing the revolutionary EM1 malletSTATION adjustable range electronic mallet controller. The EM1 malletSTATION is a 3.0 octave adjustable range electronic mallet controller designed for all levels of player, from the beginning student through the gigging professional. The adjustable range function allows you to set the fundamental diatonic note of the instrument to what you need—low D xylophone? No problem! Powered exclusively by USB Bus Power, the malletSTATION is designed to be used with Mac, PC, iPad, iPhone,
and Android devices, making it the first truly portable mallet percussion controller on the market. Designed in collaboration with Keith McMillen Instruments, malletSTATION’s tech-forward design features KMI’s Smart Fabric Sensor technology allowing the silicone bar material to have an extremely sensitive, natural response, including mallet dampening and aftertouch control, and all can be easily tailored to your individual playing style. The EM1 features a master control section, with 3 programmable faders, 4 programmable buttons, and the fixed function low note and octave shift buttons. In
addition, three assignable pedal inputs allow for flexibility in performance such as sustain, expression, or any MIDI parameter of your choice. These controls are fully programmable through a software editor so changing your configuration is as easy as clicking a mouse. This is the controller that will grow with you throughout your playing career—from music apps on your phone or tablet, to professional digital audio workstations and sound libraries— your sounds and even the instruments you play are only limited by the software you run.
Optional Dual Module Mounts allow malletSTATION to easily mount on racks, stands, and field frames
