It seems that there has been so much innovation and new technology developed for the world of electronic drum kits recently and I have only just stepped my toes into the ekit realm. Mainly because the ekits that were around when I started playing drums were total garbage and cost a million dollars... Thankfully those days seem to be coming to an end with the Zildjian Alchem-e being one of the kits to push the industry along. Electronic cymbals have never been the best when it comes to their feel. Electronic hihats are notorious for being unresponsive and sluggish and rubber pads feel nothing like real cymbals, but the Alchem-e cymbals seem to have solved the major issue of feel. These are based off the Zildjian L80 cymbals, or low volume cymbals, which use a special alloy along with numerous holes to make a cymbal that feels and acts like a normal cymbal but at a lower acoustic volume. Combine that with some crazy technology that Zildjian developed and bam, you got electronic cymbals that feel like real cymbals.

This is awesome. One problem though: From the tom hits I can tell right away that there is the same frustrating problem plaguing most every e-kit module: 'machine-gunning'. Frustrating because all it takes is a round-robin between even just 2 different sample sets for each pad zone- easily done through external MIDI.

@@steffenpanning2776 Exactly, what I found interesting is it seems like from the back of the module, in theory may be able to connect Roland drums to the Zildjian module because it's the same connector but you cannot add Zildjian E-cymbals to a Roland module. From a marketing perspective, that's pretty smart to stick it to Roland like that.

I don't have the budget for one, but I could definitely see this working for quite a few of the musical theater gigs I've had where the acoustics in the rooms were awful. It could be helpful for the sound engineer, rather than just adding mics to the kit, and getting the guitar amps picking up in the drum mics making it more of an annoyance.

I've played this kit and it's very expensive for what it is. It's great and the cymbals are very nice but it's not a total revolution like they market. I expected it to be some sort of system that picks up the actual sounds of the cymbals and through some technology, morph that into a 'real' cymbal sound but... no it's just kind of L80 cymbals with really decent triggering. The rest of the kit is nothing you can't make at home out of any old kit if you just buy some nice dedicated triggers and mesh heads.
@themetal2244
@themetal2244 Месяц назад
The cymbals are really cool and seem to have good module sounds, but for 7000$, you can build a custom e kit with full acrylic shells, real feel mesh heads, and a pearl mimic pro module. I know this because I've literally done that. This pricing is insane. It's really a shame that Zildjan has decided to go with digital connections for the cymbals, because I think it would generally make way more sense to have the option to sell cymbal packs in addition to the full e kit. The people who would be interested in these cymbals, like me, probably already have high end custom/Roland/DW ekits and wouldn't want to shell out ludicrous prices when they only want the cymbals. I doubt these will sell TBH.

Maybe I’m weird…If i take an e-kit out, its for portability as much as volume control…not sure I understand this trend of carrying around a full size drum kit/stands just to hold a bunch of triggers up in the air.

Extremely impressed with those e-cymbals to be quite honest. Very nice indeed. I've just recently embarked on the rather lengthy DIY endeavor of converting my old 80-90's era Mapex Mars Series acoustic 4pc shell pack into an E-kit. I've started with an old Roland TD-6v module, Remo silent stroke heads, Ddrum Redshot triggers, Lemon cymbals, and actually managed to snag an old Boom Theory Space Muffins 12" dual zone snare in great shape for just $70 off of Reverb! So far the project is going rather well aside from the endless parameter tweaking and so on, although the Redshot kick trigger leaves quite much to be desired IMO. I'm actually thinking about just getting a cheap $20 Pintech trigger and literally gluing it to the bass drum head a bit closer to the strike zone for more accuracy. Also, the Roland TD-6v came well before triple zone cymbals were common, so I've been pondering with possibly picking up an additional Roland TD-4 module on the cheap to exclusively handle my Vh-11 hi-hat controller, triple zone ride, and dual zone crashes. It's a work in progress, although I kind of knew that going in so... No worries. Great demo and content BTW dude! I've been aspiring to eventually start making my own content soon, although responsible adulting and being a parent takes center stage currently. Ha! Keep being awesome my dude! Cheers!

Good video as always from rdvaidr. Great looking product. Pricey to say the least. The big question for me is when the high hats are struck with a stick how many discrete states (sounds) can the module produce between fully closed and fully open? My Rolands TD17 module has 4. Acoustic hi hat cymbals of course are pretty much infinite in this regard. I'm kind of a Ringo guy and he was the master of slight variations in high hat ride IMO. I would like to have seen that question answered but aside from that, a very nice demo video.

The cymbals do indeed seem to be the best out there. Kudos to Zildjian for that. But it does seem the drums themselves haven't improved on what's already out there. And regarding tom sounds/behaviour, spending $6k on this or any of the top end kits doesn't get you anything better than spending $2k or less does. It'd be great if you could buy the cymbals separately to use with any other ekit.

It‘s not a CAT cable that moves around 1s and 0s; it‘s just an RJ45 plug and an 8 wire cable. They probably use it because that way you can connect 4 triggers with a single cable. There are 4xXLR to CAT adapters that use the same concept. The triggers are most likely not digital, they‘re piezo microphones basically.

Best of both worlds. I don't see the advantage or the technological leap of the Alchem-E approach, and can't see the justification of the huge price.

What happened to Gen 16s and that module? I used to play the original iteration, and it wasn’t terrible.

Inteface on the module seems really laggy, I assume this is still not the final version of that software? Not a big deal at the end of day but if the base is 45 hundos I hope they can iron out such kinks at release.

They're probably saving money on the module by using some cheap ARM SoC instead of something better. If they used something better, the whole thing would have to cost 10 grand.

Can I use these e-cymbals with my Roland TD-30KV module? Any issues?

David, I assume the answer is yes, but can you use these cymbals on a Roland module?

Magnatrack has had the solution for electronic low-volume cymbals available for years, at a much more affordable price point, and works with any brand of module or pads

This knocks the cocks off the Gen 16 dumpster fire. And probably most of what Roland has released since they evidently quit making significant progress in the vdrum world 15 years back. As cool as this looks, there's absolutely nothing wrong with accepting your poor status and rocking an Alesis Strata kit. Many thanks for the presentation!

@@TheSalPic your money minus 3500 equals you being poor (and having what appears to be a great sounding e-kit)

Hmm cymbal runs on cat5 meaning can't use those on a Roland kit (besides the proprietary processing it does, so maybe would never work anyways). A few months ago I had to upgrade my Roland e-drums (got neighbors too close) and I wanted another option because I had it with the Roland Cymbals. Would had loved to check these out before I purchased them.

Now we just need to wait till they are selling the modules and low volume cymbal conversion kits. And if you could plug in any shell pack e kit to the module that would be insane

i do respect the e-drum tech, if you can get it to emulate it to the bone why not, but there has to be a point where the wooden overtones of the snare can be distinguished by anyone digital or not, cymbals are just that reason, if you can emulate a cymbal to where it blows out my headphones instead of my ears. and not disturb anyone outside of a studio setting, awesome. but for now i do admire the hybrid setups, eBrass and a wooden snare is just so futurist i endear every aspect of it.
