Leave the stock 8″–10″ pad behind. A full 14″ × 5.9″ shell with the look and feel of a real acoustic snare — without spending $1,500+ upgrading your entire module.
Authentic size, acoustic look, chrome hardware and a reso mesh bottom — a real snare build for your e-kit.
True snare shell dimensions — diameter and depth that match a real acoustic, not a compact practice pad.
The size, stick response and stage presence of a real snare drum on the kit you already own.
High-quality adjustable tension hoops and chrome-plated hardware for a professional finished look.
A reso mesh head on the bottom of the shell — quieter practice with near acoustic drum-like feel.
Authentic shell dimensions — a full 14″ diameter and 5.9″ depth, so your hands finally meet a real snare size.
Most e-kits ship with an 8″ or 10″ pad — too small for proper rimshots or stick work. Add a centre-cone trigger and you get harsh hot-spotting whenever you hit the middle of the head. Cosmos Pro fixes both: an authentic 14″ × 5.9″ shell with acoustic look and feel, chrome tension hoops, a bottom reso mesh, and a premium 4-point trigger that senses evenly across the head — so your technique stays natural and your dynamics stay linear.

Full dual-zone triggering for head and rim. Rimshots, cross-sticks and snare mapping work through a standard TRS input — no special cable or proprietary pad required.
Full dual-zone triggering for head and rim. Rimshots, cross-sticks and snare mapping work through a standard TRS input — no special cable or proprietary pad required.
A premium 3-ply white mesh head with natural rebound feel, very low intrinsic noise, and long service life. It keeps a natural acoustic look and stick feel, providing stable surface tension and durability that improve trigger accuracy.
Mounted in a laser-cut hardened steel chassis for rigidity. Four flat-top foam cylinders on a multi-spoke frame sense evenly across the head, so you get linear dynamics without a centre hot-spot.
Integrated 1/4″ TRS (stereo) stainless steel jack. No soldering, no drilling — plug into your module's snare input and go.
No surprises when it arrives. If a dimension matters to your setup, ask us before you order.
That means getting the look and feel exactly right. We built the Cosmos Pro to be as close to an acoustic snare as possible: a real 14″ × 5.9″ drum shell equipped with a high-end Jobeky multi-point trigger and a tri-ply mesh head. Handcrafted in Christchurch. Just connect it to your existing drum module and start playing.
You’ve spent years on a 14″ snare. You want that exact size in your acoustic or hybrid setup, with reliable triggering—not a downsized pad that forces you to compromise your technique.
The shell is a real acoustic drum. With true dual-zone head and rim triggering, rimshots stay rimshots.
You hit hard, and you do it often. The head has to hold up night after night.
The Cosmos Pro uses a tri-ply mesh head—three layers of heavy-duty woven mesh. It cuts the acoustic volume, eliminates the excessive bounce of thin dual-ply pads, and is built to last. Backed by a high-end Jobeky multi-point trigger inside a real shell, it guarantees you won’t drop notes during a heavy set.
You just want a proper snare without a steep learning curve. Simply plug it into your module and play.
The tri-ply head keeps the volume down for home practice, while providing a natural stick rebound that feels closer to an acoustic snare than a thin mesh pad.
I bought this to upgrade my TD-30 KV kit - its a significant improvement compared to the previous Roland snare! Highly recommended!
It feels just right. I replaced the PDX-12 on my TD-17 with this (the old pad became the floor tom). It is a joy to play.
Awesome snare! I upgraded the snare from the original pad in my TD-17 kit to the Cosmos Pro 14″ Snare. After adjusting the trigger settings on the module, I got right to playing. I was amazed at how much better it performs than the old Roland snare. I feel it actually gives me greater dynamics and precision. Plus, it looks great in the kit. Worth the money.
Very happy with the 14-inch snare from iDrum Dynamics. The response feels very natural, sensitive and accurate, and having a full 14-inch snare makes a noticeable difference when playing. It feels much closer to playing a real acoustic snare (compared to my old Roland PD125 pad, it is now used as my floor tom). What I like most is that I didn't need to replace my drum module or the whole kit. I could simply upgrade the snare and get a much better playing experience at a very reasonable price. It's made me enjoy my existing kit even more, and I'm glad I can keep using it for many years. Really happy with this!

What's included
If your module has a 1/4" TRS snare input — which covers virtually every Roland TD, Alesis, Millenium and 2Box module — yes. Plug into the snare input and select a dual-zone mesh pad as the trigger type. Our compatibility guide lists the recommended setting for each popular module.
No — that is the point of the design. The snare presents itself as a standard dual-zone mesh pad over a normal TRS cable, so it works with the module you already own. You get a true 14″ mesh feel without the digital-pad path that usually means a flagship module and roughly $1,500+ NZD all-in. Nothing proprietary, nothing else to buy.
Hot-spotting is the volume spike you get when you hit directly over a single centre-mounted cone. The Jobeky 4-point trigger spreads sensing across four flat-top foam cylinders on a steel spoke chassis, so the head responds evenly from centre to edge. Rimshots and ghost notes land where you expect them.
The mesh head has very low intrinsic noise — comparable to any 14" mesh-head pad, quieter than a rubber pad of the same size, and far quieter than an acoustic snare with a batter head. The shell is a real drum shell, so it has more body than a small pad, but it stays well inside home-practice levels.
Yes. It uses standard lugs and a standard drum key. Tuning the mesh head changes stick feel and rebound the same way it would on an acoustic drum; it does not change how the trigger reads velocity, so you can set the feel you want without recalibrating.
Neither is included. It mounts in any standard snare basket and connects with any standard 1/4" TRS (stereo) cable — the one already running to your current snare pad will do. We left both out rather than charge you for hardware you already own.
Each snare is built and calibrated to order in our Christchurch workshop, which takes 1 to 3 days. Tracked shipping within New Zealand is $25.00, and typically arrives one to three working days after dispatch. Pickup in Christchurch is free.
You have 3 days from delivery to return it for a refund, provided it comes back in original condition. The snare also carries a 24-month warranty against defects in materials and workmanship, and your rights under the Consumer Guarantees Act apply on top of that.
We ship to Australia at a flat rate. For anywhere else, get in touch before ordering and we will quote freight for your address.
We build a small number of these at a time. Leave your email and we will tell you when the next batch — or the next model — is ready.
