- This is a review and Playing test of the Octobans made by Millenium. I go in-depth as best as I can to explain the Octoban feature when they're out of the package. Then i test them with factory heads and Remo Emperor heads.

Thanks to Millenium for making "value" instruments, even though they need to claim on their emblem that they're "high quality". XD - But there would be no way I'd be paying 1099 EUROS (which is even more in USD) for Tama's set of four octobans instead of Millenium's two sets of two octobans for 278 Euros in total. - I've been a guitar-player for just over two decades, but always had a percussionist's heart, and I'm finally gonna try to get into it more seriously with some hardware. - So I'm just looking what's out there, variety and quantity over quality, but with a good balance though, and these are definitely on the list for the price and the size as well. - I don't know how you got them for about 200 USD, considering Millenium seems to be Thomann's in-house brand, based in Germany, and they're closer to 300 USD converted from Euros. Perhaps it's the taxes here or inflation also happened on music-instruments since. But perhaps they might be cheaper to distribute to the US or something, who knows.
Maybe I should start with one set of them, and then also look at an alternative stand (though I don't know if anything has been changed about them, while they seem to have a new brand-logo), and perhaps heads. If I'd have four, I'd want them more in a cluster like the set of four that Tama sells them as anyway, so I'm not sure if a separate stand exists for that configuration. - I don't want to have to pay a whole load extra as a "beginner". - But anyway, thanks for this demo, it's probably still about the only one out there. With the Remo-heads they do seem to have more clarity and resonance, I suppose, whereas the originals sound a bit more dull I guess. Not sure if that's just a "fluke" because of the camera-placement or whatever. But I get the idea of what they sound like.
Like Portnoy even the „octoban solo” like from Lp Studio - nice to see that style! 🤘🏼
The tuning bit ought to be in one of those 'quick workers' compilation videos. lol. That was a joke, btw. :D
I remember using the pearl marching quads with two snare stands holding it to play on my left side once’s but it’s very large but it’s like quantum’s. And yeah It really dose changes the way I play😂😂.
Alex Van Halen used those a lot!
Nice playing! The Octobans sounds great. Had a question. Did you have to pay an extra fees for customs, shipping, VAT, etc???... other than the standard shipping costs.
I had to pay extra shipping cuzz it was from Germany
Thanks for the review...definitely a fantastic price for these instruments! BTW, what's the china cymbal just above them? Sounds great!
A wuhan china.
Those sound awesome for 200 bucks !!!👍
The sound of the 80´s
Hey first of all great review, unrelated question though: what's the smaller splash close to the hi-hat? sounds awesome!
Sounds like a 6” Wuhan splash. It’s one of the best 6” splashes around tbh!
when you tune them your as quick as mike mangine
What are they made of?
Plastic?
Metal?
What kind of splash is that you have there?
Sabian max splash.
I had question about ordering these octobans did you have to pay extra taxes and shipping ? !Since it's an international order...
You might yeah
nice tomsss!!!
Aaron kitcher dont have shit on your hand speed 5:05 5:11
Ha ha ☺☺ . That it 's born for 6:00 song. 😄😄😄
And i too. 😄😄
Kick ass price not bad
What is that little mini hi hat?
Max stax 10"
@@Drummershy thank you. Just getting into drumming and learning the ropes.
Prima nur!
What splash is the one in the video?
max splash from sabian but they have been discontinued due to the pandemic.
I was looking to get these but i wanna mount them on my rack...I was wondering do i need anything more than just a clamp?
i have no idea tbh. i never done a rack mount before.
ZeGRMMA Do you use gibraltar?
@@kevinmeli my rack? No
Hey, i just found your video here, and wanted to know if you might be in the NYC area? I would like to talk with you more about possibly playing drums for me on 2 albums of music. SERIOUSLY.. let me know.. ~ Thank you
It’s pronounced octo “Bohns”...not “ban”...
no, it's actually pronounced "bans" , dipshit
@@JimA-pp2nu And he probably says Neil Pert instead of Neil Peert.
It's octobans shithead
I'm planning to get Millenium toms. Do you think they're worth it?
Yes they are. Even if its your first octobans! they are worth it if your on a tight budget. keep in mind. idk how you do your setup but depending on how high you want your octobans. Try getting new stands with it. B/C the accessory are not that up to quality.
I'm talking like a rack and a floor tom. Not ready to step into the world of octobans yet. Welp, judging by the quality of the octobans, the regular toms could be just as good.
oh sorry bout that. but The regular toms are fine. For me i have not tried them. but if your on a tight budget then yes. it would be great. from the video's ive seen. the regular toms are good!
Octo-BAHHHHHHHHNS!!!
What is a china model???
バウンスって何だよ
Gonna make a set out of PVC..
Want to do the same out of PVC! Have you found the right sizing of true 6” PVC to 6” drum rims?
Erik S did you find the right sized PVC diameter online or locally?
@@yochanman I haven't actually made them yet, but both Lowes and The Home Depot have it in that size. I figured I'd spray them with a textured type paint, like the older Tama's.
Erik S nice! Thats gonna look sweet. our Lowe’s and Home Depot have the 6”. But sadly these are slightly to big for 6” drum heads and rims. I’ve been on the hunt for 5 or 5.5” PVC. Give me a holler if you ever find that size. Believe 5.5” PVC would be the cleanest fit for octobans we’re trying to make.
...maybe I’m wrong, but I think they have nothing on Tama, used by Mike Portnoy or Simon Philips...
yes, but these are 1/4 the price. You get what you pay for and if you're on a budget they're probably 'good enough'
👍🏻👍🏻👍🏻
they all sound pretty much the same, the problem is this clown doesn't have them mic'ed correctly. Have to be internally mic'ed
Jim A You don't need a mic to demo stuff. The octobans mike uses are deeper, and because if the mic they sound better than in real life, through a cam mic you can really hear the sound since it doesn't augment it further. Cheap octobans from the company Fame would be about the same depth as mike uses, and they would sound almost the same.
Giuliano Ritieni che gli octobans della Tama suonino meglio anche per via della buona microfonazione che Mike Portnoy e altri adoperano?
It’s just my opinion, maybe I’m an inexperienced...
