Top-notch acoustic sounds combined with a Roland sound module





Already a top-notch acoustic instrument in its own right, the Roland EC-10 EL Cajon is loaded with a Roland sound module, providing you with a massive palate of sounds. You can supplement your rhythms with a layered tambourine and djembe, create a backbeat with acoustic or electronic snare sounds, or add low-end drama with an electronic kick. Enhance the EC-10 EL Cajon's natural sounds with studio-optimized cajon sounds. At Sweetwater, we're impressed by the realistic touch response provided by the EC-10 EL Cajon's quality sapele playing surface and independent head and edge sensors.





Straightforward controls make performing easy and natural





The Roland EC-10 EL Cajon's sound controls are top-mounted for quick access. Dedicated buttons scroll through sounds categories, while other buttons select individual instruments. A rear-mounted Volume knob controls your electronic sounds' levels, and a Trigger Balance knob adjusts the balance between head and edge sensors. Trigger sensitivity is also easily tweakable.





Battery-powered w/ built-in speaker for all-in-one performance





Just like a traditional cajon, the Roland EC-10 EL Cajon is self-contained and easily portable. An integrated amplifier and speaker deliver high-quality sound that's loud enough for acoustic gigs, and six AA batteries powers the EC-10 EL Cajon for up to 12 hours. An Electronic Sound Out jack lets you connect the EC-10 EL Cajon to a PA system for larger performances. A Mix In jack allows you to connect your smartphone or iPod for backing tracks or break music. Of course, you can always turn off the electronics for a traditional cajon experience!
