I was looking at the KZ AS10s, which has 5 drivers... Great list.. I added a Gon Bops Small Percussion Tray with Heavy-Duty Clamp to mount under my Mimic to put random stuff on!
Ooh yeah, that's a good one! I never used to think much about having a tray but after doing some sketchy shows, it became apparent that they're a great idea! 😅
Good video. I think no1- it is powerful monitor speaker, unable speaker, for example QSC12.2, what can give right sound and feel, not only to ears, but around to band members. It’s like: real drums on stage, with similar punch and volume.. I saw, most of PA sounds NOT, like I hear my module from studio headphones.. And good samples sounds tiny and different.. you never know, how it can be time to time, no matter what, kits sounds the same, but PA or monitors give different picture.. that’s why I think it number one, to play live different gigs confident..
@@TheeDrumWorkshop True, but i also can't ignore the fact that the large base plate confers stability, particularly on rug surfaces. I appreciate that. It's a bit of a trade-off.
I stopped using IEM's 6 months ago after getting some on and off again tinnitus. I saw an ENT and she told to me stop using them immediately, and I haven't had the problem since. I guess for some us the IEM's can be little hard on the ears. I now just use beyerdynamic dt770 pros headphones and haven't had the problem since. Just mentioning in case IEM's start to bother any of you. If they do, you might want to switch to regular headphones to prevent potential hearing loss.
What a shame! I've had tinnitus since college - originally thought it was a drumming thing but turned out to be related to hearing issues I'd had from birth. Fortunately the IEMs don't seem to aggrevate it for me, but if they ever did, I'd stop using them! Good shout looking out for the health of your ears and putting that first!
@@TheeDrumWorkshop I'm sorry you've been dealing it with it so long, it's quite frustrating. Very glad it hasn't stopped you from pursuing your passions. I'm about to get back into drumming with a roland td27kv, and am finding your content to be very useful. Thank you.
I have used the Evans Patch and they work great on my Alesis Command Mesh drum kit. I got to check out those KZ ZS10 Pro in Ear Monitor Headphone. They look sweet for the price. Thanks!
About the FD7 , the rubber inside it is much better than the ones comming with the FD8.... It doesnt stiffen and has a slippy material on top of it ( so no need for vaseline ) ... i have one from a TD5 kit and it is still responding perfectly ...
You can cut slots into the rubber actuator inside and it should flex and be supple like it was like new. Or you could just buy a new actuator which i may also do to see how it performs!
Carrying a spare rim mounted kick and snare/tom trigger is a must for me! I have a 2box Trigit kick and snare/tom just in case one of the piezo's fail mid gig. It doesn't often happen but it has and I haven't been prepared.
Yeah, that's one I would recommend to anyone gigging, for sure! I might have done so in a previous video, can't quite remember haha! I've been in the same position and it is not fun!
The eDrum Workshop sure. I’ve carried spared modules too! (Never has to use it and now I only have the one, you betcha I’m gonna need it on one of these gigs, when they start up again) but of course there’s a point where there’s enough spares to have a smaller secondary kit, perhaps that’s a little over kill?
Haha yeah, I guess there's a cut-off somewhere in there! I've never really had room for more than a spare drum and cymbal pad and one clip-on trigger but I have a priority in my head of what will be swapped around if necessary with some trigger banks saved to accommodate. I haven't gone with a spare module myself, fortunately not been an issue but you never know really!
Great job as always Luke. I picked up those in ears and they seem to lack bass out of my Mimic Pro. They sound great with my phone, laptop, ect. I also have a little higher end noise in them. I did accidently end up with the trrs cable for phone, not sure if that or the mini to quarter inch adaptor. Any thoughts? Thanks as always.
I usually buy the double kick pads and cut them into two equal semi circle shapes so l get two pads for the price of 1 , This obviously only works if you’re a single kick drum player but it saves me money and I always have a back up in my drum bag.
Can the SPD-SX software be connected directly to your drum module? I'm still hoping to find something to organize all the sounds and parameters of my my module. Currently have a Yamaha DTX Pro but would switch to Roland if I can get some software to better help manage all the hard to get at settings. Thanks.
3:45 I was negotiating a FD-8 today... and thanks to this video I did ask if he had an FD-7... he said, Yes, but why you want it over the FD-8?? for that oldie 23 USD :-)
I have an acoustic kit. It's to loud for me even tho my neighbors are a ways away. I'm thinking about getting the Roland td-17kvx2 to practice on. I would already have the high hit stand and kick pedal. The lick pedal is double sided. Felt and rubber. Can I just turn to the rubber side to use on the ekit? I also bought drum patches for the kick drum. I'm also getting nylon tips for the ekit. Anything else I should order right away?
Great vid! When I moved from acoustic to edrums, I left a lot behind apart from pedals, throne etc. But the best thing I went back for and use all the time is my drum dial. The Roland manual says to tension the heads before using them, but doesn’t say what tension or how to achieve it. The dial allows me to get even tension on each lug, and once I’ve found a tension I like it’s easy to get back to it. Correct head tension can be important in minimising hot spots, and is good practice anyway.
I have tuned my td20 using my drum dial. I sometimes use the set as a big practice pad, and it sounds better with the heads tuned. Definitely recommended
Ironically I learned how to tune drum heads after I bought my v drums. So I just use those RU-vid tutorials on how to tune drum heads and I apply the same thing to the meshes. Also nylon tips rule for electric and acoustic. For the acoustic it makes everything including the drum heads seem very much brighter. Heads up. Not very many tutorials on how the tune concert drums which is what I also have for my acoustic. I think I figured it out but there's no information in my opinion on the web.
@@jonpowell4157 the nylon tips dont leave marks on cymbals either. I noticed my brothers cymbals had marks from his wood tips that I dont get on mine. He has switched to nylon for his Roland kit now.
love your vids, but i have a DM10. and never had the manual. I've downloaded it but there is terminology in there that is Above me lol. is there any chance you could do a vid on all the capabilities of other modules? i also have a TD 6 withe pintech triggers. i haven't got into it yet. lol thanx for the awesome vids, and even if ya don't do my vid.. keep'em coming'! ( playing like a muppet) fantastic.'!! lol
Thanks! Ahh yeah, I understand. Unfortunately I have no experience of those modules so not sure I'd able to do something like that any justice. I could take a look at the manuals at some point though and see if there's anything worth bringing up in a video!
@@TheeDrumWorkshop any help would be appreciated. i think there are a lot of people out there struggling with non roland products. yeah i know there are other sites that deal with this sort of thing but, i like the way your so 'in depth' on the subject. it seems to me other sites just gloss over capabilities. thanx again for your time'!
Glad that the in depth approach works for you! I'll see what I can do - as I say, having no hands-on experience with them hinders what I can really say about them but maybe there could be something I could look at.
I was just saying that the "extra tight" pressure function isn't available in the VH-11. I'm not sure if the washer works with the VH-11, can't remember whether the plunger on it is the same size or shape as the Goedrum one. The documentation for the washer doesn't mention the VH-11 either so it would be best to check with the creator. Sorry for the confusion!
What's the difference between the KZ ZS10 pros from your link, and the Linsoul KZ ZS10 Pros, and several other brands that list as the same model on Amazon?
Glad you like them! Looks like they're popular amongst audiophiles, but I'm not sure if I could part with £700+ for in-ear monitors without them being custom mould ones, to be honest!
Ahh yeah, it's just a link to DRONE Trigger's FB page - they don't sell their products on Amazon, you have to contact them directly on FB to order. Sorry about that not being clear, I'll edit the description!
those inears are hella cheap even for us, slav broke squad. I would buy them because my sennheiser on-ear dont block hiting cymbals that good and it bothers me to be honest and with in ears i can always put those construction worker ear covers.
Yeah, to be fair, they're probably the one thing on this list that's been recommended by a LOT of different people. As I said, I bought them off another RU-vidr's recommendation and I very glad I did!
Used your links to buy the KZ ZS10 Pro IEM's, cable and New Bee tips. I've got a good array of options for my edrum kit: Sennheiser HD 280 Pro's, Shure SCL 425 with custom ear molds and JBL Eon monitors. The KZ ZS10 Pro's work much better for me than the Shures. I think the New Bee tips are a key reason these sound so good for the kit. Thanks for the links.
Thanks! Glad you're enjoying the KZ monitors! It's surprising how much better they are than a lot of expensive ones. And yeah, I think the seal is the most important thing when it comes to pretty much any in-ear system, and the New Bee foam tips are what got me the best seal. Great to hear they've worked for you too!
