Product Info
* Prices may vary. Check retailer for current pricing and availability.
The Pearl EM1 is a really interesting controller, especially for composers and sound designers who want a tactile, expressive way to trigger samples or manipulate virtual instruments. It’s a great way to get that mallet instrument feel without the acoustic space. It's a premium-priced piece of kit, but the build quality and responsiveness are top-notch.
