Roland TD-50X Sound Demo on the VAD706 GN electronic drumkit 

Thank you very much! You can find more drumming/music on my personal channel over here if you like: ru-vid.com Kind regards!

Thank you very much! :)

Well, I can actually talk :-D, but I think really playing an instrument for a demonstration is much more fun & says more than a 1000 words. Maybe you would never have watched so many drum-tec videos if I actually talked in all of them, also my voice might sound like Kermit the frog, who knows??? ;-D ok, no it probably doesn't... Thanks for tuning in & kind regards!

:-D

You not kidding, he has prestigious technique. Always enjoy watching and hearing him put these kits through the paces

@@mattryan6886 Thank you Matt :)

@@drumtecTV You are most welcome. Very interested in what your thoughts are on the digital hihats performance. You are in very unique position to have damn near every major drum kit manufacturer on the market. Are they a big step forward in the technology that future closes the gap between acoustic drums and electronics similar to acoustic guitar/electric guitar??? Or maybe a slight improvement over what was currently Accepted a best on the market VH-13’s/ATV 14”??? Maybe 🤔 your own slightly different opinion or take?? Thank you so much!!!!! Keep making noise and videos of all the newest gear out there

@@mattryan6886 Hey Matt, I personally prefer playing feel of the VH-14D to all other hihat options actually :) the VH-13 always was a little too bulky for me, while the ATV still is a nice option for heavier rock drumming because of its harder surface/material. Kind regards!

Solo el modulo cuanto cuesta. Para dispararlos con el Spd 20

Hey Anthony, that's great to hear! The TD-50X is indeed a great module, what really makes it "shine" are the digital VH-14D hihat & CY-18DR ride :) you can find all available addons/options over here: www.drum-tec.com/pads/e-cymbal-pads Feel free to get in touch through experts@drum-tec.de for any further assistance and/or an individual quote including international shipping if you like. Kind regards!

Thank you so much Mark! You can find more drumming/music & sound demos on my personal channel too if you like: ru-vid.com Kind regards!

What do you think of digital hi hat??? Worth the wait/hype??? Bold step forward in drum technology or similar on par VH-13???? Barring some kind of financial miracle I’ll never own TD-50, TD-27 module more realistic goal, worth buying??? Can’t wait to try for myself at guitar center, however I know that maybe not best environment for evaluation: how many people bash the life out of floor model kits, settings maybe crazy messed with

@@mattryan6886 hi Matt. I honestly can’t tell the difference between the new digital hihats and the vh13, so in my opinion it is not worth the upgrade. Sorry Roland. The TD-27 is still a very good module, i actually use more samples in my TD50X than their built in sounds. So TD-27 would be better buy if you mainly use samples instead of their on board sounds. The thing i really like about the VAD706 is that it really feels like real drums when you hit it. You can’t go wrong with either, TD27 and the non digital hihat would work very well still.

The Wood Phonic kit is part of the upcoming drum-tec Live Sound Edition for the TD-50X (15 kits), which will be free of charge with the purchase of any TD-50X module/kit from drum-tec. Demo coming up next, kind regards!

Thank you very much Michael! :)

Just run it into your own samples. I run my Simmons sd600 into steven slate samples using midi. Sounds like a 4000 dollar kit.

Thank you so much :) you can find more drumming / music & sound demo videos ovr at my private channel digitalödrumming too if you like: www.youtube.com/@digitaldrumming Kind regards!

That’s why superior drummer is your friend connect to a laptop drums are flawless.

Thank you very much! Have you already checked out these demos of the Mimic Pro module with the drum-tec pro custom series: ru-vid.com/video/%D0%B2%D0%B8%D0%B4%D0%B5%D0%BE-k1jf3ysRp0M.html ru-vid.com/video/%D0%B2%D0%B8%D0%B4%D0%B5%D0%BE-10yC3-panY8.html ru-vid.com/video/%D0%B2%D0%B8%D0%B4%D0%B5%D0%BE-mMGE9IRFSrQ.html Kind regards!

@@drumtecTV hey did you do anything to get rid of machinegunning? Out of the box after the upgrade many of the sets have the machinegunning, so I have to dial it in. For some reason this was worse on X then the stock TD50 - but snares is way better now I guess

@@kbaeve Hey Kenneth, I actually just reduced the sensitivity settings on snare & toms a little, as they seemed to be set very high for my taste by default. This way you'll end up with less max level velocity, making the kit & dynamics sound more natural. But in the end these are very individual settings & up to personal taste. Kind regards!

@@drumtecTV Ralf, do the VAD series come with 3-side-triggering system like ATV or eFNote do? Or just the conventional center triggering like Roland always did?

@@galgogergo As far as I know the 12" & 14" toms have the 3-side-triggers, while the 10" pads only have one side trigger. But you might get in touch through experts@drum-tec.de to make sure :) kind regards!

Thank you Carlo! You can find more drumming / music / sound demo videos on my private channel digitaldrumming too if you like: www.youtube.com/@digitaldrumming Kind regards!

Thank you Jason! :)

Thanks Budhi! :)

Man thank you so much for your super nice feedback Kent, that's great to hear! 😀

Nick D'Virgilio isn't really technical in his demos, he plays pretty straightforward and tries to showcase each part of a kit. Also, a Roland kit like this should last as long as you want it to!

@@jaydoode15 That’s one train of thought lol.

Thank you so much for your kind feedback! :)

Unfortunately a top line acoustic kit doesn't come with the house that you need so as to play without disturbing your neighbors. If you don't already have one then you have a problem.

@@DarrenX9 Absolutely!

Yes they do :) you can find more info & pictures of the pads over here: www.drum-tec.com/pads Please feel free to get in touch through service@drum-tec.de for any further questions. Kind regards!

Thank you Brian! The playability is great as always, the sounds have definitely improved but there still is a difference between module sounds & a Toontrack sample library. While the sample libraries use tons of complex multilayer / round robin samples etc, the Roland modules as far as I know use much less basic samples and a modelling technology to transform/modify the sounds. This major difference is audible, but if you are working at home / in the studio you can hook up your midi easily and make use of the TD-50X great playability & triggering. Have you checked out the drum-tec Silent Studio Sessions yet btw: ru-vid.com/group/PLfdIgOnHCc5piPaMAnQ1mzLKPpWdzKVuq KInd regards!

@@drumtecTV thanks for the info. It’s what I thought. Seems this update is definitely much improved from a sound perspective. Yes I have checked out the silent sessions, which I have to say are awesome. 2 amazingly talented players. Joyful to watch! The drum kits sounded really really good too. Thanks for your help

Lemme break it down. Vad 706 has the digital hats, lacquered wood finish instead of sparkle wrap, a 16 inch crash instead of 14, a better module with I believe 2 more inputs, and the bigger bass drum. Upgrading the hi hat on a 27 would put you at 5800$ and there's no demonstration of how the hats work with the 27. If you sell the vh10 maybe 5600$ total. Honestly, not a bad idea, still 2400$ difference, the cost of a td 50x. There are some bundles for the 506 such as an extra floor tom that may sway you as well. Personally I'm looking for 0% interest financing and I'd probably get the 706 since with a 48 month deal its only 60$ more a month

Thank you very much! Unfortunately I haven't had a chance to play the VH-14 on a TD-27 yet, but there will hopefully be a demo some time soon. Kind regards!

Hey Bruce, there are actually 3 kits in the demo from the upcoming Live Sound Edition, which will be a free goodie with the purchase of a TD-50X module/kit from drum-tec. The Real Acoustic Sound Edition will probably follow a little later though. Kind regards!

@Ed I would but I have none friend. Also why the hi hat open synth sound on Reggae kit?

Alesis Strike Pro

@@ggotscha is it as good as for example a roland td 30/50 or idk

Probably this one with sound expansions and SD3! :D

@@prod_adrian 🤑

:-D Have you checked out the drum-tec Silent Studio Sessions yet with the drum-tec pro Series, Roland TD-50 / cymbals and Toontrack Superior Drummer / SSD5 sounds through midi? In my opinion that's pretty much as good as it gets in terms of ultra realistic playing feel & super authentic high end drum sounds: ru-vid.com/group/PLfdIgOnHCc5piPaMAnQ1mzLKPpWdzKVuq Kind regards!

I use my drums on the stage with my band, and i need a good and realistic sound. Thanks!

I know the roland module, i'm in love, but you have a more experience for and i would like sone advice from you

Playability/triggering of the TD-50X is great/unmatched and you can use the digital pads which are awesome. I think you can get pretty decent sounds out of it also! The Pearl Mimic on the other hand is a nice module if you are looking for rock sounds specifically. I'd personally go with the Roland (actually played a tour with a drum-tec pro kit & TD-50X this summer), also because it's so sturdy & reliable. You can find some nice drum-tec sound editions for both modules too, for example: ru-vid.com/video/%D0%B2%D0%B8%D0%B4%D0%B5%D0%BE-tONRLbOSNuA.html (-> comes FREE with the module from drum-tec) ru-vid.com/video/%D0%B2%D0%B8%D0%B4%D0%B5%D0%BE-ZYnINqesDGU.html ru-vid.com/video/%D0%B2%D0%B8%D0%B4%D0%B5%D0%BE-RFD8hgBO5go.html You'll find all modules over here: www.drum-tec.com/modules Feel free to get in touch through experts@drum-tec.de for further assistance and/or an individual quote including international shipping if you like.

Hi, the Roland VAD bass drums are rather loud and might be too much for appartment use: ru-vid.com/video/%D0%B2%D0%B8%D0%B4%D0%B5%D0%BE-J9Ig12wXESQ.html ru-vid.com/video/%D0%B2%D0%B8%D0%B4%D0%B5%D0%BE-rQcpY2VAuro.html Feel free to get in touch through service@drum-tec.de for further assistance, kind regards!

Hi Thomas, have you checked out the drum-tec Silent Studio Sessions yet: ru-vid.com/group/PLfdIgOnHCc5piPaMAnQ1mzLKPpWdzKVuq Kind regards!

@@drumtecTV I have, and they DO sound good but... using third party sounds. For a kit that costs so much it's weird that the Roland module sounds aren't top notch.
