Hi Nick! First of all, thnx for your Videos..i really appreciate wathing them... I would Love to see you get your Hands on the following E Drumsets: - Donner DED 200 Max - Millenium MPS 1000 ( that's the Name in Europe, the House Brand of "Thomann Music Germany") I'll guess in the States it's called "HXM XD 2000 KM" or something.. So, thanx again, Greetz from 🇦🇹 🥁🥁🥁🥁

how do you load oonrack ezdrummer as a module?

That beater looks like a cheap knock off of the old style Tama Iron Cobra beaters. Played with the real ones for years, way lighter than the DW ones for sure.

No doubt in 5 years every drum shell is going to have shell screens which change displayed skins as you change drum kits 😎

Excellent review. I’ve checked out many reviews on this kit and yours has proved the most useful and informative 👍. Curious when Bluetooth will actually be push out ?

Your snare is pure FIRE dude! Tuned to perfection, got me liking my ear lips🤤

Great Vid! Set the sensitivity to the tenderness maximum. The upticks/light ghostings in volume shouldn't be an issue philip donahue. They'd BETTER not be, anyway!

I would buy a PDP concept with 7 parts. The sound is practically the same.

This one is pretty robotic specifically in the snares imo, and the choke on the cymbals is dreadful. The zone response is there, but I would just run it through midi to solve all those problems to make it shine. Really cool budget kit from a pioneer of ekits. I wish more people knew there are a ton of these cheap kits that have robotic built-in sounds than can sound AMAZING through midi via your pc if the pad response is good. There's a few big programs people use. Do your own research and make your own choice. They all have their pros and cons. They all work well. Some better than others

I love drums

Interesting how the SPD-SX went from 2 FX knobs to 1 FX knob. A similar story with the Roland “Handsonic” HPD line: the HPD-15 had 3 knobs then the later HPD-20 has just 1.

Anyone know if you could load song-length wavs for backing tracks via USB thumbdrive and load them on this? Or do you have to used it as a MIDI controller with a laptop to do this?

I just bought this and am awaiting arrival. Can’t wait. Going to pack up my acoustic kit as I know the neighbors will like it.

just curious, is this better or those desktop e-drum sets/

Alesis recommends the HARD SIDE OF BEATER hits the pad, the felt will wear out the pad. Also, if you can you should make sure the wing nuts are facing down bottom and drum mounts on outside of kit not inside. Snares have been sagging and this helps mitigate that. 👀

also i don't know if you have it there. But are you able to review the Alesis Command Mesh kit SE?

Good video. Definitely gona pick one of these up.

NICK - i currently have simmons sd350 which is small and compact. I have a small room so i cant have a nice big ekit (i want roland td07 but that might be too big). I am debating between nitro nax n titan 50. Which one is smaller n more compact? Which one has better sounds? Which kit would u go with between nitro max n titan 50? I know nitro max has weak rack and must use a snare stand so i already have that covered its not an issue. Which ekit is closer to sd350 in size? Thanks!

You should do a video on the meinl dual knockoffs that they have.

Dude, your demos are great, but I would suggest that you stop playing the exact same groove for every single kit you're sampling. It would be awesome to see/hear you play something that matches the name/sound of the kit, like you did with that last metal kit!

I know absolutely nothing about proper drum sets; can you upload One-Shots or samples into each drum pad?

It's a wonderfull Sound. Can I use it as Standalone Drums (without DAW)? I Hope, anywhere can awnser me!? Thanks and musician greatings Peter Bengelmann

Broo puedes pasar el lik de esos platillos porfavor para probarlos 😊

I'm left-handed and looking to buy an e-kit. Could this kit be set-up lefty?

No electric drum set under $1,000.00 is really worth buying. Super good e-kits typically start at $3,000.00 and go up from there. Any e-kit under $1,000.00 is considered just a toy of a drum set. For $1,000.00+, you can get a decent e-kit to learn the basics on. For $3,000.00 on up, you can get an e-kit that is 99% like an accustic drum set. Simmons, unfortunately, is really not a good e-kit company anymore. In the 80s, Simmons was at the top of the e-kit game, and sadly, that is no longer true. Simmons, after I spoke to them, trying to decide on a new e-kit since the Simmons kit I had for over 10 years began to fail, is Simmons has no plans and does not see the need to come out with a more accustic like e-kit. An accustic like e-kit is what I was after. I wanted a hi-hat on a stand, and Simmons told me they do not see the point as they make electronic drum sets, and there are enough other companies making more accustic like e-kits that Simmons is only interested in making strictly electronic drum sets that function as an electric drum set and not one that emulate an accustic drum set. Simmons not doing more accustic like e-kits and using a bit cheaper plastic parts rather than metal keeps the price down. One of the problems with Simmons is if you are trying to learn to play drums and want to get good. Sadly, you can only play a Simmons or entry-level e-kits because if you try to play an accustic drum set or a higher-end e-kit, you will find you really can not play those as they are so different in feel, sensitivity, expression, number of zones, and sound, and you basically have to learn to play drums over again. Sure, you can have fun with a Simmons e-kit, but they will never let you learn how to really play drums as they just do not function like or even close to how an accustic drum set is played. Sorry, Simmons, you lost a customer. The e-kit I now have is a higher-end one, and it is 99% like playing my accustic drum set. If you want to learn to play guitar, do you start with a toy one? Then why go with a Simmons e-kit or any "beginner " entry-level e-kit only to have to spend even more money on upgrades to try and make the e-kit more accustic drum set like. In the long run, you will save money and be much happier if you just get a higher-end e-kit, and then you can truly learn to play drums correctly.

I prefer the acoustic convetion pads are small

Amazing 6pc. kit for money. Simmons has real winner here. Excellent demo & info.

I like 6 pc. drumset to have 3 toms up,1 down on your left. I wonder if longer left bar can be in front to accommodate 3 toms in front?

Love you vids👍🏾

We produce a similar drum with this, call Velocity-sensitive ED02, Cheap and good quality.

STOP ZOOMING IN AND OUT when you're not emphasizing a point

Still less expensive than Roland!

Excellent video showcasing this kit and your playing was admirable. Digging the sounds from the module even though im used to using VSTs like SD3 SSD etc its great right out of the box and the ammount of customizations you can layer onto each pad/trigger will keep us all busy fine tuning to our own liking. Ordered the expanded edition from Sweetwater and looking forward to combine it into the Strike Pro SE for a dream setup i have.

get some locktite for that rubber piece it will never come off again . ill be doin that when i purchase mine after watching this video , great stuff :D

The module is almost like my AKAI MPC Live. Hardware and software. Same corporation. If ALESIS also provides regular updates in the future including whole new features like AKAI does for the MPC this kit will stay up to date for a very long time - a touchdisplay and assignable knobs - it might become a completely different beast with only one update... Let's see...

Why??? where are all the kits at !! All I hear is Crap

Thank you for this overview. Very thorough. I bought the nitro mesh but this video I believe still applies as far as setup Thank you.

I'm asking you how you have the sensitivity settings for the pads since I can't find the way thanks!

Surge module is same as Nitro MESH. Not the MAX. Nitro MAX module has been updated

I have Simmons sd350 with kick tower. Im thinking about upgrading to alesis nitro max with expanded kit. I might save up more to get roland td07 which is really nice tho. Im only using ekit to record so i might be able to get by with alesis nitro max. Just wondering what everyones opinion is and what they would do. Thanks

How do you ensure the sound effects match the visuals so well?

Hello, great video... between this and the Titan 70, what do you like better?

Why didnt you connect the phone to the aux in to play along to music?

Wo ist der laut sprechr

Nick, whoever the hell you are, you got my attention straight away. Talk about presence. I'm on board. Push yourself forward and get into the public light wherever you can man. You got it - charisma.

Ah.. I just got this kit still setting it up, but I'm already second-guessing my decision.... i'm going to be using a kit for my TH-cam channel, but my return to get the Roland Great job with the video!

What speaker or earphones suggested to connect for best quality?

I bought this e drum kit just for rock band 4, and i DO NOT recommend that kit because it is too small, and the snare keep pulling down even though i tight it with a screwdriver. i believe it’s a good kit for the price, but it’s HORRIBLE for RB4

I like the kit. Took one of the velcro strap to tie the snare stainless part to the bar so it dosen't bend and act weird and always stays solid. I'm 6f2 and the kit is kinda small, it's wide enough if you set up your kit right but it's not tall at all, even with the poles set up at the tippity top it dosent come high enough between the legs. Might try that furniture idea. When I listen to a song in bluetooth to play along I can barely hear the ride and the crash for some reason. Maybe theres a wayu to make them louder in the module didn't check
