EFNOTE Mini – The Cutest e-Drum Kit Ever?

Size isn’t everything, or so they say, and the new EFNOTE Mini certainly supports that claim. How cute can an e-Drum kit be? Very, if this is anything to go by!
In previous features here on the Gearnews Drum channel, we’ve looked at kits for beginners. These are often cut-down kits with small pads. Kits that don’t take up a lot of room or budget. But why should one compromise on style simply to take up less room? Why can’t we have both? Well, according to EFNOTE, we now can…

Even smaller than their EFMOTE 5 compact kit, the EFNOTE Mini takes things even further. Still weighing in with a kick, snare, mounted tom and floor tom, everything looks like it got stuck in the tumble dryer at the wrong heat. There are even two cymbals and a hi-hat of equally minimal stature!
Furthermore, there’s no cutting back on the metalwork either. Double-braced stands are all in attendance. So what do you get in the Mini? Drums are as follows:
- 14×10″ kick drum
- 10×4.5″ snare drum (head/rim/side-rim)
- 8×6.5″ rack tom (head/rim)
- 10×10″ floor tom (head/rim)
These are all made using real birch shells.
And as far as cymbals go, you get a 12″ Hi-Hat, 8″ Splash/Crash and a 16″ Ride. All of these feature 360º bow and edge sensors and the ride also has a bell trigger. There’s also room for expansion by adding a 14″ Crash or 18″ Ride and an extra tom. All in all, this kit occupies a mere 0.8m²!

What the kit doesn’t come with is a kick pedal, Hi-Hat stand and drum throne.
Mini Size, Maxi Sound
The included EFD Mini Sound Module supports triple-zoned snares and rides, dual-zoned toms and a single-zone kick. It comes with 12 editable preset kits, space for 18 of your own creations and a multitude of drum samples built in. It also doubles up as an audio interface with both USB-C and Bluetooth audio/MIDI connectivity. There’s even room for EQ and FX.
Whether you’re looking for a kit for the ‘Mini Me’ in your life, or simply something small to practice on at home, the EFNOTE Mini will tick all the boxes.
