Zildjian Alchem-E Gold EX
You know Zildjian undoubtedly as one of the best known brands of cymbals. In 2024, Zildjian shows a completely different side of himself with the release of the Alchem-E series: the latest innovation in electronic drum sets.

Next level electronic drum set
With the Zildjian Alchem-E Gold EX, the brand brings acoustic and electronic drumming surprisingly close together. This kit has the look and feel of an acoustic kit, but saves you the... noise disturbance of an acoustic kit.
What is immediately noticeable is that the cymbals have the same color as real cymbals. Where most electronic kits have black cymbal pads (or in the case of Efnote: gray), Zildjian's cymbals are also indistinguishable from the real thing.
In addition, the Zildjian Alchem-E Gold EX comes with Pearl's high-quality tripods, which are known for their strength and stability.
Full size toms and cymbals
Zildjian has clearly paid attention to the fantastic design, making the Zildjian Alchem-E Gold EX perfect to shine on stage.
All shells are full size, with the two “Gold” versions featuring the most realistic size of toms compared to “Bronze”.
High-end E-Vault Module with Bluetooth
The module that these kits come with, the Zildjian E-Vault, has a premium and high-end appearance. With its black housing and gold buttons, the module fits nicely with the rest of the design.
The E-Vault is equipped with Bluetooth so you can easily connect your smartphone. The module contains a rich range of sounds including, of course, the iconic sound of Zildjian cymbals.
Expanding the Zildjian Alchem-E Gold EX is easy and offers sufficient options with up to 6 tom inputs and 6 cymbal inputs.
