I just bought this online today, cant wait, as denis Hermans wrote i really cant belive the sound out from How it looks, since it looks a bit like my early 2010s toy edrums the sounds sound too good to be true, and with a midi program running through it as i plan to use it with sd3 on Mac this will sound and feel really Great i think, im a bit new to drumming and i have not enough space for a «real» e-kit so tabletop it is! Looks very promising:D
Awesome, I think you did great man. I have one too and it's a lot different/harder then paying a normal set. I'm not nearly as good as you are though. Keep it up and maybe do some covers.

Hey man, I love this video!! This may be a stupid question, but how do you get the direct audio over this video? I want to make some vids with this same kit but I know nothing about the technical aspects!
Heyo, thanks, and nah no question is stupid if you're trying to learn something! There are a few ways to go about but how I did it here was by recording the audio separately to the computer (via the line input to a usb soundcard/interface) from the kit's line outputs while I monitored through the kit's headphone output (you can also use a passive splitter on the kit's headphone out to do both things from the same output on the kit). Then in post editing I removed the camera mic audio from the video recording and inserted the direct kit recording in its place, carefully aligned to start in the right place. Other ways to do this would be recording the audio to a standalone digital audio recorder and transfer to the computer afterwards, or depending on your camera, feed the audio output to the camera's line/mic input if available. This option would save on having to edit the video to insert the direct line audio since it would already be encoded together with the video recording, but you'll have to carefully adjust certain settings on the camera to get the best audio, like disabling automatic gain control and setting the input volume to a safe level to prevent clipping (distortion) from hot signals (also a necessary step with the other methods by the way, you may have to play with both the input level of the recording device and the output level of the kit for best results).
Denis Hermans Thanks, glad you like it. Indeed, the Yamaha DD-65 is pretty nice for its portability and great selection of sounds, very professionally made which is to be expected from Yamaha. Also, I did make a little wooden mount for the kick drum pedal to be able to use it with a beater. ;)
+SonicYM2612 Thanks for your answer. I'm a hobby guitarist who also likes to do some homerecording. It would be cool if I could do some drumming. However Ihae limited space and don't want to spend to much. Yamaha dd 65 seems to be to good to be true! Do you still use it? How is the quality of the pads ? They don't wear out to fast ? BTW: YOU DON' T SEEM TO BE A NOVICE DRUMMER TO ME. Respect absolutely. How much time do you spend practicing? (sorry for all the questions) Denis from Belgium (Europe)
Denis Hermans Hey, no problem, I'm glad to answer any questions! :) It's a very high quality instrument all around. The pads are nice and tough, albeit a little bit noisy. They are gum rubber I believe. They definitely won't wear out any time soon. Of course, using sticks with nylon tips would be the correct choice for playing on electronic drums to avoid damaging them (at the time I only had these cheapy sticks that came with it). The sounds are great and there are plenty to use. You can create 3 custom kits by assigning a sound to each pad/pedal. Each pad plays at 3-4 different volume levels depending on how hard they are hit (also the kick pedal), which is not that dynamic but it's ok. I have since bought a more professional, larger drum kit, the Yamaha DTXplorer, though I still have the DD-65 stored away. The DD-65 is great for portability and ease of use, perfect as an entry level drum kit. Eventually though you might feel the need to upgrade, like I have. I say if you want to get into drums, the kit isn't bad. If you already know how to play and want something more serious though, I would skip the DD-65 and go with something else. There are lots of great electronic kits that aren't too expensive that I've seen on eBay, especially from Alesis and Yamaha. I could certainly point you to some if you want. In that video I did slip up on the timings a little bit which is why I said I'm a novice drummer. I have since improved on that though! I tend to practice generally when I'm in the mood, usually a few hours a few days of the week. ;) Best regards!
+SonicYM2612 Hey thanks again. Yes I know there are of course better e-drums but space is really limited. I can't leave it standing when I'm not playing. That will not be tolerated at home 😄😄 since I have already a lot of guitar gear. Regarding the limited levels, I'm planinng to use it (also) through midi out with software like ez-drummer or superior drummer so those may have more samples at different velocities. So this "problem" can be solved. As I see it now I have 2 choices : either this yamaha or play drums with finger drumming (on an irig pads or something like that). The yamaha seems more fun to me (more realistic)and can be played without hooking it up to a computer...
+SonicYM2612 On(e last) question : I 've heared some owners complaining about the fact that you only can change the overall volume/velocity and not the that of the individual toms. So one part of the set can be to quiet compared to another one. Was this a problem for you ? (maybe this was only because they used the internal speakers. You sound very good.
+Voltaire Yee I recorded the audio directly from the drum kit's audio output into my computer and I edited the video to replace the camera audio with the drum kit audio, as well as to add titles and transitions.
I don't remember unfortunately, but I used a variety of different kits for the different songs and a couple may have been custom. The toms are just the standard acoustic toms haha.
+Voltaire Yee How so? I recorded the drums through Audacity. Maybe you have the input volume too loud or you have the drums going into a mic input instead of a line input.
+Tom Jeffrey Macalisang I would, but I currently don't have a MIDI cable and I stored away this kit as I now use a YAMAHA DTXPLORER drum set. If you search around though, you'll see that others have done that before using Addictive Drums. :)

It's quite compact but don't let that fool you, it's no toy. The built in drum sounds are excellent and it also functions as a sound module as it contains the XG Lite sound set, so it's pretty much a compact drum set/MIDI controller with a built in Yamaha XG Lite AWM synthesizer.

Looks and sounds great I would have loved to hear how a Rockabilly beat sounds.
Great ideia made a beater pedal.. You could make a video to us showing how you did..
Your recording are so clean & neat, its completely amazing demo... what kind device or software do you use to record & process it.
SMOOTH AF..
Oh no this is really shitty playing, I have massively improved my playing since this video lol. I have to make a new one sometime. :) -Lazaro
hi! Nice playing there! .great idea for the pedal. will you show how you modified it? Thanks!
any luck on getting this query answered ? its really a tough with dd75 small kick pedalsv :D. Do update me on treverfernandes@gmail.com

Você toca bateria muito bem parabéns 😤👏👍!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Anyways we gotta hang sometime I have my own studio now.
Nice job man.
+Steve Sturgeon Thanks!
I'm your 800th subscriber!!
+ZertyTV Woot! I might make a special video if I reach 1000 subscribers. I haven't uploaded anything really in a long time.
Yo Lazaro its Ian bro nice drumming
+bullard1707 Hey man, thanks! :D
Nice
nice, man
Zakri Rahman Thanks!
This was awesome! What was the name of the first song btw?
cara me diz uma coisa como é que tu fez essa regulagem E aí no pedal para ficar tocando no bumbo da bateria aí
Great job! How did you learn to do that?
yiu did adapt the bass drum pedzl no ?
Nice demo!
Can this kit be used as a midi controller as well?
Yup
Is it possible to play rim shot?
Que adaptacion le diste al pedal del bombo
Se puede ajustar el volumen de manera individual del bombo ?
what the pedal merk?
eu tenho uma bateria dessa e nunca vi isso aí como é que tu fez isso
amazing! is it true or fake?
Real performance, all sounds recorded directly from the drum kit itself with no modification.
How do u record ur vedio dude?
+Voltaire Yee I recorded the audio directly from the drum kit's audio output into my computer and I edited the video to replace the camera audio with the drum kit audio, as well as to add titles and transitions.
como memorizar uma bateria yamaha dd 50?
how come u have different pedal
+Jade Pascual It's the same pedal, it's just on a homemade adapter to be able to hit it with a beater pedal.
Metronome Plis!!!
lol I know, my timing was terrible, I've gotten much better than this since then and I have a better kit. Hope to make more videos soon. :)
:) :)
SonicYM2612 Which kit did you buy ?
I got a Yamaha DTXPLORER kit some time ago and I recently changed the module to a DTX502.
***** Have fun with it. May the groove be with you.😎!
Yo which drum kit number is that the toms sounds amazing
I don't remember unfortunately, but I used a variety of different kits for the different songs and a couple may have been custom. The toms are just the standard acoustic toms haha.
Sir i try it but it sounds like shit, i used audacity software..
+Voltaire Yee How so? I recorded the drums through Audacity. Maybe you have the input volume too loud or you have the drums going into a mic input instead of a line input.
can you use it as a midi controller?
+Tom Jeffrey Macalisang Yes, it has MIDI Out and MIDI In.
+SonicYM2612 Can you do a demo of it using Addictive drums 2 or any drums vst? I would like to know how it responds with VSTs.. Thanks
+Tom Jeffrey Macalisang I would, but I currently don't have a MIDI cable and I stored away this kit as I now use a YAMAHA DTXPLORER drum set. If you search around though, you'll see that others have done that before using Addictive Drums. :)
