Simmons

Description

Built around an all-new sound module, a positional-sensing snare and a moving hi-hat system, the Simmons Titan 90 Electronic Drum Kit delivers an advanced electronic drumming experience with a layout designed to feel familiar to acoustic players. This comprehensive 6-piece electronic drum kit features a 12" Zone Intelligence mesh snare, four 10" dual-zone mesh toms, a 7" kick tower, a 12" triple-zone moving hi-hat, two 12" triple-zone crash cymbals and a 14" triple-zone ride cymbal. At the heart of the system is the Titan 90 module with a 5" color display, 100 drum kits, 672 sounds and deep editing tools that make it easy to customize tones and workflows. Bluetooth audio and MIDI, sample-import capability and app integration further expand the kit's versatility for practice, recording and performance, making the Titan 90 a compelling option for drummers seeking a more expressive and customizable electronic drum set.

Note: Kick pedal and hi-hat stand are not included.

Titan 90 Module Streamlines Sound Creation

Anchoring the kit is the Titan 90 module, which combines a 5" color display with an intuitive interface designed to make sound customization fast and approachable. Drummers can explore 100 onboard kits and 672 drum sounds spanning everything from traditional acoustic drum sets and studio-ready rock kits to progressive voices, electronic percussion and vintage Simmons-inspired sounds. Multi Edit and Zone Edit workflows make it easy to swap an entire drum voice or fine-tune individual zones, while dedicated faders provide hands-on control of key mix parameters. Meanwhile, the sound engine prioritizes realism through natural sample decay, stereo ambience and detailed velocity response, and onboard EQ, reverb and compression processing provide additional tools for shaping sounds for practice, recording and performance. Users can also import custom samples from a computer, USB flash drive or the Simmons mobile app, expanding the module's sound palette beyond its onboard library.

Zone Intelligence Snare Enhances Dynamic Expression

The Titan 90's 12" mesh snare introduces Simmons' Zone Intelligence technology, which is designed to respond more like an acoustic snare drum. Multiple sensing zones across the playing surface allow the module to trigger different sounds and characteristics depending on where the drum is struck, while a dedicated rimshot zone adds further realism. Sounds become thinner and more resonant as playing moves closer to the edge of the head, creating a more natural transition across the drum. Individual zone sensitivity can be adjusted to match playing style, and each zone can transmit its own MIDI note for compatibility with supported virtual instruments and software-based drum libraries.

True Motion Hi-Hat Delivers Natural Performance Feel

Developed with input from Simmons founder Dave Simmons, the 12" True Motion hi-hat is engineered to provide smooth response and familiar acoustic-style operation. The moving hi-hat mounts to a standard hi-hat stand and uses a patent-pending magnetic sensing system designed for reliable tracking and consistent performance. Three trigger zones provide access to edge, bow and bell articulations, allowing drummers to perform techniques commonly associated with acoustic cymbals. Together with the responsive snare system, the hi-hat helps create a more connected playing experience that supports everything from detailed practice sessions to expressive live performance.

Modern Connectivity Supports Practice and Production

Designed to integrate easily into modern practice and recording environments, the Titan 90 offers Bluetooth audio and MIDI connectivity, USB audio and MIDI support, MIDI In and Out ports, stereo line outputs and an auxiliary input for playing along with external music sources. The module also supports sample import, allowing users to load custom sounds from a computer, USB flash drive or the Simmons app for iOS and Android devices. Two dual-zone expansion inputs provide support for additional pads and cymbals, giving drummers room to expand the kit as their needs evolve.

Full-Size Mesh Pads Create a Comfortable Layout

The Titan 90 pairs its advanced electronics with a full-featured playing surface built around dual-layer mesh drum pads and multi-zone cymbals. The kit includes a 12" snare, four 10" dual-zone toms, a 14" triple-zone ride cymbal, two 12" triple-zone crash cymbals and a 12" moving hi-hat. Open-bottom pad construction helps contribute to a more natural feel, while the rack system provides a stable foundation for practice and performance. Combined, the pad configuration and hardware layout create an electronic drum set that feels familiar to acoustic drummers while offering the advantages of a modern electronic platform.

Optimized by Simmons for Practice, Recording and Performance

From its Zone Intelligence snare and True Motion hi-hat to its powerful Titan 90 module and expandable architecture, the Titan 90 is designed to provide a more responsive and customizable electronic drumming experience. Available only at Guitar Center, the advanced Simmons Titan 90 electronic drum kit combines expressive triggering technology, extensive kit customization, onboard recording tools and modern connectivity to deliver a realistic playing experience that supports drummers from skill development through serious performance applications.
