Phantom EVO 12-Inch Dual-Piece Electronic Hi-Hat

Real Hi-Hat Feel. Evolved.
Take your electronic drumming to the next level with the Phantom EVO — a 12” dual-piece electronic hi-hat built for drummers who demand the feel and performance of an acoustic hi-hat, with the reliability of high-end e-drum gear. Designed as a serious alternative to the Roland VH-12 and VH-13, the EVO delivers premium functionality at a more accessible price.

Key Features

True top and bottom cymbal setup allows natural movement and full hi-hat articulation — open, closed, foot splash, half-open, and everything in between.

Enhanced Sensor System:
Features an upgraded internal motion sensor for precise open/close tracking and fast, consistent response across all hi-hat states.

High-Performance Build:
Engineered for demanding playing conditions, the EVO combines a smooth, professional finish with rugged hardware and smart weight distribution to stay firmly in place.

No Compromise Feel:
From delicate foot splashes to aggressive open slosh, the EVO captures your expression with a wide dynamic range and responsive playability.
