DW DWe Wireless Acoustic/Electronic Convertible Snare Drum 14 x 6.5 in. Finish Ply White Marine Pearl

The DWe wireless acoustic-electronic convertible snare drum pioneers the ability to switch seamlessly between acoustic and electronic drumming. This first-of-its-kind snare from DW Drums blends the brand’s signature quality with groundbreaking functionality. With the DWe snare, you get the rich, resonant tone of an authentic DW drum shell that can convert to a low-volume electronic drum just by changing the head and dropping in the trigger.

Crafted With Legendary DW Maple Shells

At the core of the DWe snare’s design is a meticulously constructed, nine-ply maple shell. DW’s patented 333 configuration leverages over 50 years of drum-making expertise for maximum resonance and sustain. The shell produces a subtle, natural tone when played electronically. Fitted with DW’s signature true bearing edge, the DWe shell delivers the stellar attack and depth you expect from DW drums when played acoustically. The snare’s VLT design reduces tension while boosting low-end punch.

Innovative Wireless Triggers for Expressive Playing

The DWe snare drum pioneers the use of proprietary, wireless triggers with a wide dynamic range to capture your playing nuance. Combined with DW’s STM suspension mounts and graduated steel hoops, the triggers make the DWe snare remarkably responsive. The triggers connect wirelessly to your computer via the DrumLink hub, providing low-latency audio powered by DW Soundworks software. With capacity for up to 30 instruments, the hub converts signals into MIDI data.

Effortless Acoustic to Electronic Conversion

Thanks to the included acoustic and electronic drum heads, you can convert the DWe snare from acoustic to electronic mode in seconds. The electronic mesh head provides natural rebound while keeping volume low. Switch to the acoustic Mylar head when you want to unleash the drum’s booming tone. The snare comes with additional accessories for personalizing your setup, including snare wires and a DW Soundworks software license.
