- Drummer for Evanescence, Will Hunt, recently took the Roland TD-50 kit on the road for the band's "Synthesis" World Tour. In this video, Will breaks down how he incorporates electronic sounds into his live set in conjunction with playing with an orchestra, why he chooses the TD-50 sound module, and how layering acoustic and electronic samples. Roland electronic drum kits have been a reliable partner for Will on the road--from TD-6 to TD-30, and now TD-50--for anywhere he may travel.
Evanescence will be on tour from May 2019. Please visit www.evanescence.com for tour schedule, location and ticket information.

The Roland TD-50, the flagship in our acclaimed V-Drums range, is created for top-flight live performance, intense practice sessions, and eclectic studio work. Built on the foundation of the new TD-50 module with Prismatic Sound Modeling, this electronic kit provides Roland’s most impressive and wide-ranging sounds yet. The advanced processor is complemented by newly developed snare and ride pads, which feature multi-element sensor systems and high-speed digital communication with the module.

This is why I also have a Roland TD-50 kit.....Quality, Reliability, and Durability!!! I don't have to worry about my drums or modules quitting on me during a show! I don't have the time or patience to be returning faulty equipment back to the manufacturer for repair!!!!!
Great to hear! The Roland engineering team put in a lot of work to make sure our V-Drums instruments are built to last 💪
I only got the Roland HD-3 since April of 2012. I already recorded more than 300 videos since then and my e-drum still like new!
@@astronaut2005drummer ...and many more years to come. Thanks for sharing!
@@rolandglobal , who can I talk to about endorsing your product?
RolandChannel why is then I can’t buy the spare parts for my Td20x module it still goes great but lcd screen can’t be replaced. Was going to upgrade to Td50 but this experience has put me of Roland after twenty years using Roland’s .
I did Wills mortgage for the purchase of his home in Orlando way back when he had just joined Dark New Day, and can tell you that he is the nicest, most humble rock star you could ever meet, and still is to this day. So happy for your success Will.
One of the best in the world! Keep rocking Will!
💪
Love Will's drumming! Always intense and on point. A perfect fit for Amy and her music. (Who I simply adore!)
I believe that Amy and Will are the anchor of that band and Tim and Troy are the completion of that anchor, with either one of those four gone it would not be the same anymore , but it seems to me like Will and AMY are the main two foundation pieces of that band.
Will you are so amazing, I love how you play, always an inspiration 🤘🏼
Agreed 🙏
That cut scene when he hits both cymbals then it cuts to live, well played Roland. Well played.
Will Hunt you are amazing and a great part of making Evanescence its sound. You and Amy I give all my kudos and thanks for!
This shows you how incredibly talented evanescence is to understand all of this stuff and do this incredible musical creation is beyond me I love this music stuff
I know nothing about the tech involved. What i do know is her music has changed my life
My Number 1 Drummer and Biggest Inspiration
Excelente
Like si estas aquí porque Evanescence lo publicó en sus redes :'). Will eres lo maximo!!
Love Evanescence and Roland!
I started understanding drums only recently and it's thanks to Will's part in Evanescence. This video is really cool. Imma go google some more stuff now. And nicely edited too, Roland. Well done. That cuts from live to interview to live are a cool move. Good use of the footage you have.
The beast!!
The best BEAST!!!
That was really cool. Excellent usage.
Loved Will in Skrape , awesome band with great music
I’m not a drummer and I’m unfamiliar with the terminology but this is fascinating!
Best drummer I know
THE BEST BADASS POWER DRUMMER BRO THAT I KNOW
Period 👌
Mike Portnoy wants you to hold his beer
Yea Will Hunt one of my Favorite 🥁 drummers
Whoooo hooooo
My favorite drummer
found this guy playing with zakk for BLS... he was incredible with them
I used to play in a showband back in the day and used a electronic drum set and it was Midi'd to the sequencer of the keyboards and so all the kits, pitch modulations and samples changed automatically in each song. All I had to think about was playing.... Great to see more drummers playing E kits live.
One of the best drummers ever
Roland is all about flexibility and I love my TD 30 kit to death with many samples and so much to choose from in samples which makes any drummer more versatile. The argument should not be accoustic or electronic it should be what serves the song and how can I help in that endeavor
This video really woke me up inside.
Will Hunt Rule!
He is so amazing 💥
Amazing, beautiful, I am crying, 💙 Evanescence makes me so happy, Will, you are an amazing drummer!!!
💯
Great drummer. Remember him from the ELI days.
R.I.P., Brother Hunt!!!

how handsome he is
Fuckin underrated beast
Using the roland td 50 myself
I wanna see a drum of will playing that kit
#willhunt ❤️ ❤️ ❤️ ❤️
@RadioChannel, Will talks about how great that brain is and how useful it is but never mentioned the model. Can you please tell me what the model of that brain?
Its the TD50
Thank you.
Alguém sabe o nome da música que passa nesse vídeo?
I'm looking to get the upgrade thingy, snare, ride and module... but man it sucks that Roland is so far being on their screen and editing user interface. Also I'm scared they will come out with a TD-60 or whatever they will call it that is full USB and I'll end up needing all new gear because the ride and snare are dated by then too...
What they will hunt?
Her voice gets so old song after song. The band needs a project without her.
Who the hell wants to play a full electric kit live??
It was an orchestral setting. A real kit would be too overpowering. They play real kits in their normal rock shows
why not?
Much easier for sound man to control. Direct outs to board.
@@joannaev8602 it really wouldn't have been too overpowering at all. All he would have had to do was turn the drum mics down. Maybe play a little soft. Its done all the time.
@@okioki1131 because real acoustic drums are way more fun than electric drums, especially live. Electric drums are for practice. I just find using electric drums live kind of lame.
The only Ev fan in your school…
He Is my cousin
No, manpower in drumming.
Electronic drums still sound horrible compared to a well mic’d and engineered kit. Sorry. 🤘🏻🤘🏻
Tim TPDRUMS
I totally agree.
They really do lol...
Ehh ..as far as triggers go ..Ddrum is probably the best out there .But you still get that machine gun effect
Zach Cline The triggers dont matter, its the samples and sensitivity settings. Its too clean and consistent. The notes dont breathe into each other. Its sad that in 2019 they still cant make audio samples sound good live lol
A real kit would have sounded so much better.
you are so amazing.
At last one drummer who is using a full electronic kit live instead of just one crappy pd-8 roland pad to trigger a loop...
Yeah... okay cool samples... BUT what I would've done is utilized a sample pad/Mallet Kat/LP Percussion Street Cans, LP trash snare, AND... TRIGGERS with a full alt rock/symphonic rock/ live DRUMSET! Probably would've used some suspended cymbals, crotales and definitely some trash crashes, stacks, and a BUNCH of chinas!!!
We are coming to a point that the gap between the e-drums and regular drums are about to be closed. Thanks to the technology.
In my opinion the difference is still quite large, it is getting better though. Roland needs to start using more pure samples like the pearl mimic pro and atv ad5, they sound a lot better.
I personally use my ekit (drum-tec / roland td-25 hybrid) for small gigs but for larger gigs: my tama starclassics are a better choice.
youre so far from reality you have no clue
I went the the concert at Five Points Amphitheater in Irvine to specifically see Will Hunt play and the concert sucked as this isn’t the first time I’ve seen them. The electronic drum kit was horrible and after the show I could hear people bitching about the show on the way out.

What happened to the chubby drummer of the band? May i know?
Good drumming but the Snare sound like ass sorry. The mix overall is better than most e drummers get, I think the snare needs lots of attention. Seems like in the same year 2019 he went right back to Pearl acoustic drums hmmmmm
Drums sound crappy. The voice is stunning
Holy Lord that snare tone is awful
