Hertz officially announces the discontinuation of the AEDAN-1 Electronic Drum Kit from its active product lineup. As the company’s first in-house electronic drum platform, the AEDAN-1 played a key role in establishing the foundation of the Hertz electronic percussion category. Since its introduction, the AEDAN-1 has been used across practice environments, educational setups, studios, and live performance applications, earning recognition for its compact form factor, mesh-pad configuration, and accessible feature set.
The AEDAN-1 represented an important step in the development of Hertz electronic instruments and helped shape the direction of future electronic drum products within the company.
Key highlights of the platform included:
The platform contributed to the growth of the Hertz electronic percussion segment and introduced a wider audience to the company’s evolving drum technology.
The discontinuation of the AEDAN-1 marks a transition toward newer electronic drum systems featuring upgraded triggering architecture, expanded connectivity, improved hardware construction, and enhanced module capabilities.
Hertz will continue supporting existing AEDAN-1 users through authorized service and distribution channels, subject to component and parts availability.
Hertz extends its appreciation to all musicians, educators, artists, dealers, and users who supported the AEDAN-1 throughout its lifecycle and contributed to the growth of the platform across the country.
