I want to get into drumming but of course I don't want to spend a load on a kit nor do I have the space for simply learning so, iv'e been looking at these Air drum thingies lol This pocket drum 2 however seems like it would be annoying with all the aligning issues..One I saw that looks promising was Theodots Hyperdrum, tho at the same time I can't find too many videos on it, I like to watch at least 100 review videos on electronics before I buy something lol Update lol I actually did purchase HyperDrum a week ago, they are indeed pretty good and I'm having a good time learning :)
@@gowza5590 They are if you get the Bluetooth dongle as this greatly reduces the latency. Otherwise depending on you phone there could be a delay between when you strike (the virtual drum) to when you hear the drum sound. When I just used just my phone I found the delay very off putting.
@@gowza5590I’ve had this twice and sent it back twice.Its just too frustrating calibrating and missing drums.Dont waste your money and time on this.Get real drums you can see and hit.
Hyperdrums are not Aeroband Pocket drums. for one thing they do NOT need to be constantly recalibrated like Aeroband Pocket Drums do. but they also come with no software or app like Aeroband does.
Thank you so much, that is the first video to get a realistic impression. :) Does anyone know why they replaced the foot clips with foot pedals? Maybe due to latency or other issues? Is there a difference between the clips as shown and the pedals if latency is concerned?
I just received the Plus edition as a gift and I am definitely going to politely inform my fiancé that she can return them and save her money. I would feel horrible if I wasn’t honest as they are absolute rubbish and I’d never use them. Great thought poorly designed and way too expensive.
I have just received a Sealed box of the drumsticks 2, but I have no "conformation code" to create a login to use the different kit styles on the app, any advice on how to get one as the support messaging system they have doesn't seem to be replying at all 😔
I am looking for this drums and hyperdrum. What the latency in this drums? Is it comfortable to you to play with it? Is it possible to record a MIDI and export it?
I found the latency to high when just using my phone. This makes difficult to get the most out of it. When using the Bluetooth dongle and a speaker this greatly improves and reduces the latency which makes it more enjoyable. Not sure about using the midi function, I did see something about it using another app but haven't tried it.
Hi. Great for learning as a good starting point in getting into drums, rhythm and music. Easy to set up especially if using to Bluetooth adapter. Will benefit from tution.
I gave it a try. needed to be calibrated to the point of frustration. every 15 to 20 seconds of playing I had to press the buttons on the stick to re-calibrate. kind of ruined playing for me.
Hello. No it can,t. This is pre set by the company to match an average layout of a physical drum kit. Firmware updates have improved on this. To re calibrate, hold the sticks near the middle of the drum area (lap) and press both buttons together.
as some who wanted these things, they don’t seem that great at all. maybe if they were $100 cheaper. to anyone trying to get into drums, which appears to be many of the comments on videos featuring this product, DO NOT get these. get a pad. as far as someone like myself who plays drums (not particularly well 😅) these still have TERRIBLE sound samples. accuracy seems like it could be slightly better. i just don’t see these things being ready for market rn. maybe in the future it will be a nice portable kip i suppose, but this will never teach anyone how to become better at drum imho
@@notyouraveragetutor sorry for not mentioning this early, there are new updates of these air drums called "pocketdrums-2 plus" which consist of 2 foot pedals and "pocket drums-2 pro" which consist of 2 foot sensors
I have the same doubt becuse the released a little padals, like 2 buttons for the feet. I searched and the "Delay" and "Felling" it's different between the sensor. BUT the sensor it's more convenience
@@johnmgrover Thanks, I have seen Aeroband, Aerodrum and Freedrum provides a same function with using different technologies, can anyone let me know which is best in terms of sound and long lasting?
