Product description

The EMAD Design

The EMAD series bass drum head is named for the externally mounted adjustable damping system. This system allows each player to control the attack and focus of the drum head by choosing one of two removable foam damping rings. Choosing the thinner foam ring allows for punch and focus without sacrificing resonance, while choosing the wider foam ring maximizes the low end and attack of any bass drum. The EMAD system is available in a variety of options including single and two ply, and clear and coated versions to accommodate each drummer’s preferences.

Level 360 Innovation

Evans is now offering the EMAD series of bass heads with its revolutionary Level 360 technology. With Level 360, Evans has made it easier to tune and get a wider tonal range from your drums than ever before. Applying this new collar shape to our EMAD bass drum head allows it to seat itself properly and in turn provides a head that is easy to tune and a sound that is studio ready.

EMAD Options

The EMAD line is comprised of a variety of options with varying thicknesses, plies, and coatings. The original EMAD is comprised of a single 10 mil ply and is available in clear, coated, and the Evans Onyx choices. The EMAD2 is made up of a 6.5 mil ply and a 10 mil ply for added durability and is available in a clear option. The GMAD series takes the single ply construction of the EMAD and adds extra strength by using a 12 mil ply. The Evans EMAD Heavyweight rounds out the line with 2 clear high-performance 10 mil plies. The EMAD Heavyweight is designed to withstand heavy hitting and provide maximum attack.


EMAD Features
  • Adjustable damping caters to all bass drum tones
  • Revolutionary Evans Level 360 collar
  • Two different foam damping ring options for different sound options
  • Multiple sizes, thicknesses, and coatings
  • Available in sizes 18” to 26”

I was blown away at how much this changed the sound of my bass drum. With the Evans Heavy snare head it 's the sound I have been looking for my entire life. I had a B3 Batter head years ago. This is a huge improvement.

I just replaced an existing EMAD but this is a version 2. This one is much quieter and more punchy/Bassey. I will have to switch out my pillow and definitely recommend the smaller damper.

the tone of this skin is perfect for rock and pop
defined punchy attack and full deep power that sound amazing when mike’s and going through a big PA with decent subs
use with the evans eq pads to dampen and u have the perfect combination
my opinion as a pro drummer and music producer this is the King of bass drum skins

Reviewed in Spain on December 1, 2022
Size: 22-inchVerified Purchase
Este parche para bombo es muy bueno, pues al ser de doble capa, si la capa externa, durante un transporte o por accidente se te raja, no pierdes su punch, Puede ser un poco más caro que otros, pero lo justifica.
