The DrumIt Three module has an open sound architecture and offers 15 independent trigger channels, 4 audio outs and 4 GB sound memory.
The original DrumIt concept was a truly ground breaking and new sensation in electronic drums when introduced. 2Box has taken this technology one step further and presents the DrumIt Three module with Open Sound Architecture and Universal Trigger Interface. Based on the same technology as the DrumIt Five, the newly added Universal Trigger Interface allows the user to connect any kind of pad/trigger to the module. The new DrumIt Three complies with all popular major drum pad manufacturers' pads, including cymbals and hi-hats.
A cost-effective alternative to update your current e-drum kit, you can use the e-drum kit hardware you already have. Connect the module, tune in the trigger settings to your particular pad system and off you go, it's as simple as that.
Open Sound Architecture
Enter the world of DrumIt sounds to enjoy the real playing feel, the expressive dynamics and the superior sound quality. Update your old e-drum kit with modern sounds. Be amazed to suddenly being able to play buzz rolls and crescendo cymbals closer to the real thing than you could imagine possible. But it is! The sound library holds tons of multilayered sounds recorded in top studios and carefully edited. As the sounds consist of many velocity layers, the gradual change between faint and hard hits is faithfully reproduced. The PC Editor for Windows and MAC offers the possibility to create new sounds and loops from Wave files and convert them to 2Box's sound format and download them into the Module via USB.
Memory locations (KITs)
If you like to practice with songs or backing tracks, you can load standard WAV files in CD quality (stereo, 16 Bit/44,1 kHz) into the module via USB and then assign them to a KIT. Alternatively, you can connect a CD or MP3 player to the line-in jack. Of course, you can also use this input for other instruments or a monitor mix (live resp. studio).
Metronome
The built-in metronome not only helps you with practicing and refining your technique, but can also be used for live performances. You can save one individually programmed metronome per KIT. There is a variety of time signatures and sounds available and the tempo can precisely be adjusted according to your specifications. The metronome can as well be used as a one- or two-bar count in: The Click - automatically stops in the respective mode.
PC / Mac Editor
With the DrumIt Three software editor you can easily manage your module from your computer, and even create your own sounds in DrumIt Three format. Once the DrumIt Three module is connected to your computer (Mac or PC) via USB, you can organize and manage the 100 internal KITs. Assign sounds from the extensive internal DrumIt library and make your personal settings (tuning, volume, pan). You can preview the sounds comfortably on the computer and edit settings with ease. In addition, you can create your own sounds in the specific DrumIt Three format. Create your own multilayered sound files from WAV files, eg. from recordings of your acoustic set or sounds from sample libraries.
e-DrumIt Three sound module provides 4 GB of sound memory space with 100 presets (KITs). In contrast to common practice, where memory slots are divided into factory-KITs and (blank) user-KITs in DrumIt Three all (!) KITs are already preconfigured at the factory and can nervertheless be modified and saved according to your needs. Of course you can rename and rearrange KITs to make access and handling on stage easier.
Play-Along function
If you like to practice with songs or backing tracks, you can load standard WAV files in CD quality (stereo, 16 Bit/44,1 kHz) into the module via USB and then assign them to a KIT. Alternatively, you can connect a CD or MP3 player to the line-in jack. Of course, you can also use this input for other instruments or a monitor mix (live resp. studio).
Boost your acoustic kit and enjoy the best of two worlds
Use the DrumIt Three with the TrigIt triggers to turn your acoustic kit into a hybrid drum set. Mount the acoustic triggers to your existing acoustic drums and maximize your sound with a combination of acoustic and sampled sounds powered by the DrumIt sound module. For muted acoustic sound, use the triggers with silent heads. The Open Sound Architecture allows you to record your acoustic drums, sample them and trigger them from the module.
Play the sounds of famous drummers
The DrumIt Three comes with stock sounds of Randy Black, Marco Minneman and Simon Phillips. If that is not enough for you there are plenty more sounds to be downloaded from the 2box website.
Use other sound sources - Your sound possibilities are endless
Third party software allows you to convert sounds from famous drum sound libraries and play those sounds in your DrumIt Three sound module instead of triggering sounds via MIDI to a PC. By playing the sounds from the module you will not experience any latency and time consuming compatibility issues. As the sounds are moved into the module, the playing feel is superior with ultra low latency and a great dynamic range.

An amazing piece of tech with a learning curve.
While not as easy as plug and play, it should only take about an hour to read through and understand the functions and how the module works. 2box also provides hundreds of free samples on their website.
A great lower priced module for upgrading either an older ekits module or to build an acoustic to ekit conversion around.
With a bit of a learning curve and some patience, this is one of the best modules out there, The ability to use with virtually any piece of drum equipment regardless of manufacture and a wide open source for loading samples etc.it far out performs more expensive offerings from both Roland and Yamaha.

I've taken a long time to use the module before sharing this review. I have had this module for almost a year at the time of writing.
The quick version of my review? There's no other module out there that is quite like this. It has near limitless potential, however be prepared for a VERY steep learning curve in order to achieve those heights. Some technical know-how is almost a "must have" (both hardware and software). It will go a long way to getting the most out of this module. The sounds that come with the module are "ok", but this might be a matter of personal taste. Chances are you will want to use your own sounds. The great thing is that there is knowledge and tools out there to help you do that. The downside is (once again) the learning curve.

Protect your investment with the Long & McQuade Performance Warranty
A warranty can be a very important factor when making a buying decision. Because repairs can be very expensive in terms of parts and labour costs, manufacturers usually only provide one year limited warranties that generally only cover items that malfunction due to a manufacturer’s defect. With an important purchase such as a musical
instrument or piece of studio gear, however, many people want to have the peace of mind in knowing that their investment will be protected should the product no longer be performing at 100%.
Because of this, Long & McQuade provides our customers with a FREE one-year Performance Warranty on most of our products. The Long & McQuade Performance Warranty supplements the manufacturer’s warranty to ensure that our customers receive complete “no hassle” warranty coverage within their first year.
How does the Long & McQuade Performance Warranty differ from most manufacturers' warranties?
- Performance Guarantee: Normal wear and tear is covered, so your product will be performing as well as the day you purchased it for the entire duration of the coverage. Band and Orchestral Performance Warranty does not include replacing pads or cleaning for woodwind instruments, unless deemed necessary by our repair staff. Ultrasonic cleaning for brass instruments will be provided if deemed necessary by our repair staff, but is not routinely offered under the Performance Warranty.
- Product Replacement: If your product cannot be fixed or costs too much to fix, we will replace it with the equivalent model for no additional charge. If this is not possible, a full refund will be provided.
- No Lemon Policy: Your product will be replaced should the same problem occur multiple times.
- Convenient: Easy drop off and pick up of the product at any Long & McQuade location.
- Guitar Setup: Guitars purchased at Long & McQuade come with 1 free setup, to be redeemed within 1 year for new guitars and 90 days for used guitars.
- Loaners Available: A loaner product may be given while the product is being repaired.
- Power Surge Protection: Your product is covered even if damaged from a power surge.
- Accessory Coverage: Any peripheral devices or accessories that come with your product (i.e. foot pedal, case) are also covered.
- Commercial Use Coverage: Music and recording professionals who purchase gear for “heavy-use” commercial purposes will still be covered.
Long & McQuade reserves the right to restrict the purchase of additional years of Performance Warranty. Used products come with a 3-month Long & McQuade Performance Warranty. Some products (i.e. computers, software, cymbals and other items) are covered only by the manufacturer‘s warranty. Consumables (i.e. strings, reeds, drum sticks, batteries, tubes, cross faders) are excluded as they are designed to be replaced. Cosmetic Damage, Accidental Damage, or problems caused by Humidity or Temperature Issues are not covered. Speakers damaged by overpowering are generally not covered. Our coverage does not provide compensation for loss of use. As of June 2018 the Performance Warranty is no longer transferable. The warranty is only valid in Canada.
Purchasing additional years of coverage
Some manufacturers provide warranties for longer than 1 year; however, these are usually limited warranties that do not provide the same coverage as the Long & McQuade Performance Warranty. Customers interested in more complete and convenient (but not necessarily longer) coverage are still able to purchase additional years of the Performance Warranty.
If you are interested in receiving this coverage for longer than one year, you have the option of purchasing additional years of the Performance Warranty. The pricing is as follows:
- NEW products: Starting at 4% of the current new selling price to double the warranty from 1 year to 2 years. Starting at 4% for each additional year.
- USED products: Starting at 4% of the current new selling price to increase the warranty from 3 months to 1 year. Starting at 4% for each additional year.
- GUITARS: 4% of the current new selling price to double the warranty from 1 year to 2 years. 4% for each additional year. $45 maximum. An additional free setup is not included with additional purchased years of Performance Warranty.
- BAND and ORCHESTRAL instruments: 4% of the current new selling price to double the warranty from 1 year to 2 years. 4% for each additional year.
