The Roland EC-10 EL Electronic Layered Cajon is a unique hybrid instrument that combines an authentic acoustic cajon with Roland’s electronic percussion technology. It allows players to easily enhance their music with layered electronic sounds. The EC-10 is a self-contained instrument with battery power and onboard amplification, making it accessible for every cajon enthusiast.
Thanks to its compact size and versatility, the cajon has become a popular instrument for on-the-go percussion. The EC-10 extends the cajon’s simplicity by incorporating a built-in Roland sound module and independent head and edge sensors. This allows for new dimensions of expression and versatility. You can spice up performances by adding layered tambourine or djembe sounds, backbeats with an acoustic or TR-808 snare, or even electronic kick sounds. The EC-10 also includes studio-optimized cajon sounds for more depth and punch.
The top-mounted sound controls of the EC-10 are designed for easy operation while playing. Dedicated buttons allow you to scroll through the sound categories and select variations within a category. The rear-panel Volume knob controls the level of the layered sound, and the Trigger Balance knob adjusts the balance between the head and edge sounds.
While the EC-10 contains high-tech electronics, it maintains the organic and portable nature of a cajon. It is self-contained and uncomplicated, with an integrated amp and coaxial speaker that provide high-quality sound. The EC-10 can be powered by six AA batteries for up to 12 hours of playing time. It also includes an input for playing music from a smartphone or song player.
The EC-10 can be played like any regular cajon by turning off the electronics. It even functions as an extra seat in a music room or family space when not being played. The instrument features 30 built-in electronic kits for layering with the acoustic cajon sounds. Each kit includes two independent sounds that can be triggered from the head and edge of the playing surface.
The Roland EC-10 EL Cajon is a versatile instrument that supports a wide range of music styles. It is intuitive to operate while performing, and it is designed to enhance the acoustic cajon sound with studio-optimized sounds. With its unique features and portability, the EC-10 is a must-have for any cajon player.
