Yamaha EAD10 Module and Mic/Trigger for Drums Demo 

here 2 years late to affirm that he really did.... great video though and great drummer

@@kyronnewbury lol

We seem to all agree. I think the Yamaha corp needs to put one on a basic kids kit in a bedroom!

Maybe get an iphone

When will the app come out for android?

@@isaactorres4062 Tell me!

spot on!

Blend it in with close mics and bam!!! You got a pro recording.. Especially if you don't have a room... This will work very well to give you that room sound you might be missing of you don't have a room

Yes

Don’t do it!!!!!. I was thinking the same thing for a live setting!!!!. This will NOT sound like this in a live setting!!! ALL of these type ☝️ videos you are hearing what they sound like through the head set mix… this is DEFINITELY more toward hearing yourself and making videos for up loading!!!. This thing SUX for live venues!!!!. I’m boxing mine up and selling on EBAY and going backing to the standard ole Shure 57’s and 52!☝️🤔 I’m VERY disappointed in this for live music!!!. It’s perfect if you wanna blast the house with a screaming ass loud RIDE CYMBAL!!!🤬!!!!

@@campbellmarty36Bravo! Finally someone…

I’ve used mine in a live setting and ironed out the balance issues. It’s great for small bar gigs but it’s not really going to cut it in big rooms. Saying that, if you’re playing big places then you’re either using the house rig and sound engineer or your own engineer and truck load of PA gear. I found the acoustic bass drum sound picked up to be quiet, so a sound check would consist of getting a sound with that mixed with trigger - very quick - then work on bringing up the level of the top mics. Yes, you can adjust the individual sensitivity of L&R mics and even take them down to a minus level. Yes, it is a ‘top heavy’ arrangement so I find opting for a triggered bass drum and then bringing up the top mics to a balance is the way to go. It seems to me Yamaha must have realised the bass drum was always going to be the loser in the way the kit got picked up, hence the trigger below. If you’re a purist who will only accept a pure acoustic bass drum sound then this isn’t really going to cut it. But if you’re prepared to use 90% trigger for the BD then you have the power to control the sensitivity of the top mics. If you’re a heavy player and lay into your Ride cymbal or it’s particularly ’washy’ then the spill into that side will be loud. But it will be possible to take down the level of the mic on the ride cymbal side to compensate. No, it’s not a replacement for a fully miked up kit scenario, but if you’re just doing bars and wedding type venues it’ll be fine and is less hassle than a full miking scenario. At that level of engagement the audience aren’t really going to be bothered because they’re only looking at the singer anyway!

@@thedrumdoctor Thank you! 🙌

SUPER hard to find ANY right now, because of covid. I called guitar center where I live, and they had FIFTY SEVEN backorders for them, with no expectations of when they might ship out next. Especially since it involves the Asian market. Here's a hint: find one remaining in a personal collection already in the states. I just bought one of the last new ones on eBay 4 days ago, that was in a mom and pop drum shop in Kansas City, called "ExplorersPercussion". I got their last one they had in stock, but saw another seller on ebay that had 8-10 left. They're going quick, especially with the lockdowns, gig cancelations, recording studios not booking ppl, etc. It's invaluable if you're puttsing around the home studio and want an easy way to record yourself or mic in live contexts. Ebay has been the only place I've found ppl still selling new ones unopened for 499. A bunch of other ppl are trying to get list price for them ($650), or are selling open box units for around 300-350. Good luck! Thing is a blast!

Yes... Ios closed systems sucks. I wanna use my freedom to record and share

The trigger is obviously for the kick drum. The mics are for the whole kit.

yes, you can do it all with 700 built ins, to any trigger, then control the mix and vol, even tap the source like a digital kit to re-assign. AND... we plugged in a Roland Kick SPD-1 percussion pad and it turned into a trigger

I do believe it is stereo. The mic is binaural

The Johnny the drummer guy is wrong. They made an update that works with mesh low volume heads and low volume cymbals. I use it with Remo silent stroke heads and zildjian L80’s

MattBdrums Official Thank you 👍🏽, you make my day 👍🏽

Guess so... and hope so! haha

Hey. You can use an audio cable for the auxin. Or you can connect the iPhone to the usb-host by using a camera connection kit and a standard usb-cable if you want to use the App rac'n'share. Android is coming later...

Thanks man..

Can you just record audio and no video to your phone?

No but you can record directly to an USB Stick each take can be up to 30min!!!

And overdub is possible!

The condenser mics on the trigger make it a bit different, and it is integrated with all that social media BS. But good plug on what looks like a cool product.

I wonder if it is just a gadget though.... 500 bucks is a bit for me

Would you recommend this instead of drum mics for live cover band?

Exactly!!!!

Well, no

I have a band and I wonder if this device can be used to record our drums for our music?

Brandon chaves villegas absolutely positive. I even use it in hybrid mode: recording drums through the regular microphones with the addition of the EAD10 for the extra spices.

Just turn the trigger knob down

I believe It's a Yamaha Tour Custom in Liquorice Satin
