Yamaha DSU50 - Electronic Acoustic Drum Sensor Unit

The DSU50 sensor unit is engineered specifically for acoustic drums, combining Yamahas decades of acoustic expertise with advanced sensing technology. Each component is carefully voiced under Yamahas sound direction and refined with input from a respected recording engineer known for his work with leading artists.

Its custom matched-pair condenser capsules, arranged in an XY configuration, are tuned for the complex dynamics of drums. They deliver a natural, balanced stereo sound that captures both power and subtle detail.

Inside the housing, the microphone and sensor sections are physically isolated in a low-noise structure that reduces vibration and mechanical interference, ensuring clean, stable stereo performance in a wide range of environments.

The newly developed trigger sensor accurately detects the bass-drum attack, making expressive hybrid performance possible when paired with the EAD50.

With depth, clarity and musical nuance in every stroke, the DSU50 provides a sensor system that supports a natural, expressive playing experience for every drummer.
