The Ultimate Performance / The NexGen Standard

- Birth Story -

Want to create more valuable musical instruments with more free designs, with insane ideas.

In 2018, skilled engineers with a 20-year career who felt the limits of product development at a major electronic musical instrument manufacturer in Japan, gathered together pursuing flexible ideas that are not tied to cost, and the non-logical attraction of musical instruments.

No matter how much technology evolves, there are parts that do not change as musical instruments.
Redefine the original value of electronic musical instruments.

- Be a true musical instrument -

Musical instruments are something that will be loved forever.
It is worth not being swept away by the times.
It has beauty, and your skills are improved as you get closer.

Nowadays, musical instruments with electronic are losing their original values because of their priority on specs and price.

A musical instrument that can be loved for a long time.
A musical instrument that can be used safely in education.
EFNOTE sticks to true musical instruments.

- Philosophy -

Beauty + Quality + Originality

Every instrument has beauty. The beauty of materials. The beauty of shape.
In order to resonate the sound beautifully, in order to image a beautiful sound.
Beauty in electronic musical instruments.

A musical instrument has richness. There will be fun following practice period.
What is more important than the quantity of functions or sounds is the quality of the musical instrument.
Quality over number.

There is no musical instrument that everyone loves. Because people have different preferences and sensibilities.
Musical instruments without middle-of-the-road approach,
with unique ideas and technique, with originality that does not fade away.

For the everlasting value as the first note
