Future Drumkit

Writer: Dr Richard HelmerDr Richard Helmer
Helmer Innovation are excited to announce the Future Drumkit initative with the latest innovative music technology DRUMCOBRA™


The 21st Century is a convergence of digital and analogue, DRUMCOBRA makes it easy to mix and switch between acoustic and digital drumming.


The DRUMCOBRA technology's unique approach to detecting the vibration of a drumhead has superior signal quality, robustness and practical utility for various strength hits, from very soft ghost piano to full force forte, across drum types and sizes incuding excellent separation of head and rim events. From snares, to tom-toms, and even large bass drums (perhaps the most difficult of all!), all excel with DRUMCOBRA technology.



The DRUMCOBRA signal is compatible with a wide range of market leading drum modules, trigger to MIDI interfaces, and triggering and virtual instrument software.


DRUMCOBRA’s sensing specificity and utility across many drum types and sizes allows great flexibility and customisation of drumkit configuration, including conventional multi-mounting of toms and cymbals on bass drums. A solid performer at home, in the studio, and live, DRUMCOBRA is set to unlock new sonic performance for drummers all over the world.
