Yes it's possible! I did try it, but since I tuned the bass drum as evenly as I could, the mics weren't picking up a lot of the tonal difference. You mainly hear the difference just being in the room itself. The larger side has a lot more "body" to it
"a few" (ahem) years back, playing with a high school weekend rock cover band - I owned a Trixon kit (with regular shapes)... I loved the German engineering in the hardware that provided for quick setup.takedowns. Like this model - the ride cymbal and hi tom arms telescoped into the kick drum-shell. The snare and hi-hat legs were aluminum and spring loaded. These were lightweight, but sturdy and literally just a Snap to set up. They sounded good too and were very affordable. I'm glad VOX is carrying on some of these features.
Dude, I honestly just enjoyed listening to you play without the triggers. It feels like I'm hearing a whole new aspect of your playing for the first time and I love it :)
I got a 65 speedfire kit in 5th grade. Had to send old bass drum heads to Remo so they could make new ones. There was differences in the molds and that is how they made sure you got the right heads.
as much as i love your metal drums, its very refreshing to see you jazz it up like this video, even with tossing in the down with the sickness beat. richard cheese FTW! Oh Yurr! sounds like a killer kit!
New subscriber! 66Samus! Heck with drums... you don't need drums. You're hair and beard game is too strong! I walked into a club 2 years ago and seen a set of these and thought it must get fucking hot in here! The kick is melting!!! I was so intrigued, I came back on Friday and heard the band and those Vox boxes kicked ass!!!
66Samus ! Ned from Spain here. Awesome kit and playing of course. Trixon had the coolest weirdly shaped drums ever. Vox did license their drums back in the 1960s. I've seen in original Trixon brochures that there are 2 zones of the BD. I'd love to hear what it sounds like with the 2nd beater hitting in the far left "zone". Did you ever see the conical shaped ones ? This would be perfect for Nyango Star to play.
My dude, I wish you'd given more of a demonstration of how the different placement of the kick pedal sounded. Otherwise great video and your playing as always is impeccable.
Dude, thanks for showing the Vox drumset. I know me and a lot of other guys didn't understand the bass drum till you showed us. What was really cool is you playing to the different styles of music. Freakin awesome. All I can say is "What a great drummer". Thanks for the cool vids....👍😎👌
I had an old vox hollow body electric guitar years ago with a movable bridge . Star burst color. Last seen in Myrtle beach. And I also had a old Vox amp yeah . . 👍
I didn’t know that Vox made drums, I always knew them because of their amps (The AC30 is one of my favourite amplifiers) but that’s definitely an interesting kit that Samus makes sound awesome
My mates dad had the same kit when i was a kid,he played in dancehall bands and cuise ships ,i thought him and his kit were the coolest thing ever,ive offered to buy the kit from my mate but hes keeping it in memory of his dad.
Cool kit and awesome playing. Really enjoyed the beats and grooves. The metal playing, Wow amazing! and it actually sounded good on those drums. Thanks for sharing.
The Bass Drum may , It may look radical, ,even kind of stupid and no practical reason other than a Funky / Artsy statement of the times , but it did function and it was made to have Two Single Bass Pedals, It works !.
I never thought I’d see a company brand those old kits back. Nor did I think I’d ever have the opportunity to try one. As a kid I remember looking at those old kits in pictures and just thinking what it would be like to play one. Looks like I may just have to pick one up now… 😉
Most jazz kit ever with a mega bell ride lol. Just metal drummer things.
hhhhhhh
@@合金坷垃 hhhhhhh
Buddy Rich used a medium-heavy ride in his later career.
Sounds great tho
I’m mostly a jazz drummer and I personally use a slightly larger bell just for accents.
I thought you warped the bass drum in your thumbnail😂 The kit sounds great!
Yeah same here but it's a damn good kit. Hopefully they can add a thing we're it could have different wraps
The bassdrum looks like a shart, and that’s what’s so powerful about it.
That’s how my brain felt when trying to figure out why and how….
Shart💩
I've never visualized a shart. Thank you for new understanding and discoveries. I'm now one step closer to master level enlightenment.🤘
@@bobbyosborne2375 it forms a Hershey kiss as you pull your underwear away from your ass.
It'd be interesting to put two bass pedals there..one for the 12" and one for 18" side.
If thats even possible
Samus has to see this
I bet if he has a straight pedal and then one remote it would be super easy.
Yes it's possible! I did try it, but since I tuned the bass drum as evenly as I could, the mics weren't picking up a lot of the tonal difference. You mainly hear the difference just being in the room itself. The larger side has a lot more "body" to it
@@66Samus That makes sense. Have you experimented much with the different tuning zones? I wonder how a shape like that would react.
That’s the whole point of this drum when it originally came out in the 50s
Damn Samus, you are one hell of a solid drummer! I can listen to you play all day!
DUDE! metal drumming on this thing sounds like late 80's death metal! so beautiful!
Yup. Reminds me a bit of Dave Lombardo's tone in Reign in Blood to be honest.
Its really cool and fun to see Samus on this small kit. Great creativity!
Thank you very much Fabian!!
The kick looks like it's melting from Samus's sick playing & his super-heated cav.
those socks tho 😂😂😂
That funky part at 6:33 reminds me of the Bernie Mac show theme song. I love it🤘

Hell yeah samus 420k subscribers!
That kit looks so sick. I dig the jazz and 70’s disco groove you’re playing on it, plus the metal groove at the end was bad ass! Great video Samus!
Relaxing and smooth stuff with Samus behind this jazzy kit! Even the 'metal' part sounded fun haha. Great socks btw :D
6:37 is my inner Drummer at all times LOL Love your work man!
Wow dude! Awesome video! Really.
Loved seeing you have so much fun on that kit man! Sounded and looked amazing! Thanks for sharing!
that snare sound is so good
Damn it, you funky bastard!
6:38 your dork is incredible, I giggled.
I got a 65 speedfire kit in 5th grade. Had to send old bass drum heads to Remo so they could make new ones. There was differences in the molds and that is how they made sure you got the right heads.
It’s awesome seeing you being able to switch up styles like that! This kit sounds great too.
I've always wondered if he could play/ appreciate other styles. the dbass sounded really cool with the different pitches.
I like how the vox kit is just there all innocent and the monster kit is in the back staring it down
I love the it comes with everything you need excepts every other things you need.
Loved the power floor tom groove and the jazzy song.
Absolutely love the symbal arm on the bass drum!

Your magical old man hair makes me anxious. I need to pay a person who simply gives you a help friend.

i almost commented , where is the blastbeat part. then i just stayed quiet with a smile on my face after 7:59 :)
The bass drum = Teardrop trailer. I love it.
Damn that sound is awesome and I f*cking love that melting bassdrum
Absolutely digged that funk groove you did at the end! especially the ride bell work!
My dude, I wish you'd given more of a demonstration of how the different placement of the kick pedal sounded. Otherwise great video and your playing as always is impeccable.
Crazy. I literally saw one of these in a store window yesterday as I was at traffic lights. Stoked you've reviewed it !
@6:03 Samus is about to get down with The Sickness 🤘
It sounds so good it almost feels like one of those actually good presets on an e-kit
66Samus puts the djent in djazz.
Cheers from Kentucky!
Thanks for responding. I really appreciate it Samus !
I always love watching your videos! Keep it up brother!
Nice! I've always liked playing with a minimal kit, since it forces you to be more creative.. And the kit looks and sounds awesome!
Loved the take 5 tribute

6:38 haha that face was hilarious, he just went like dang this actually pretty groovy (btw whats this song called it is pretty groovy)
Looks really 60's, definitely would work for a psych rock band
I had an old vox hollow body electric guitar years ago with a movable bridge . Star burst color. Last seen in Myrtle beach. And I also had a old Vox amp yeah . . 👍
It sounds incredible! I love a dry sounding kit!
Yo the Mario brothers rap was incredible. I forgot that existed hahaha
So nice to hear your playing without triggers/e-drums for a change, sometimes I forget how good you really are
Sounds great. It's great to see how versatile you are.
That snare stand looks like the Tiwanese one I bought second hand in 1980
Intro brought back so many memories
Loves the down with the sickness beat, didn’t see that one coming.
Ele é fodaaaaaaaaaaaaa!! Aulas Samus! Big hug from Brasil.
Suddenly caralho
@@vitovitamina indeed,this is a caralho momento
Oooofffff! That snare sounds gorgeous
Good to see you on an accoustic kit. Sounds goddam great!
Hey, his disco and funk chops are pretty impressive too!
0:33 damn those vocals
I didn’t know that Vox made drums, I always knew them because of their amps (The AC30 is one of my favourite amplifiers) but that’s definitely an interesting kit that Samus makes sound awesome

My father played this in the 60‘s from Trixon 👍
GG on 420k subs
Take 5. My favorite tune from high school jazz band. My introduction to “odd timing”.
Cool kit and awesome playing. Really enjoyed the beats and grooves. The metal playing, Wow amazing! and it actually sounded good on those drums. Thanks for sharing.
Take 5!!! Not expecting that pure awesomeness!!
I never knew there were kits like this in the past. That's crazy! Sounds great!
Oh yeahh!! Fresh jazz vibe. More if this please
Love the sound of that kit!
6:03 Darn, I was waiting for the Oh Wah Ah Ah Ah! 😎
I enjoyed hearing you play jazz style stuff
The Bass Drum may , It may look radical, ,even kind of stupid and no practical reason other than a Funky / Artsy statement of the times , but it did function and it was made to have Two Single Bass Pedals, It works !.
Thank you for making a kit demo video where you actually play the kit for most of the video.
Great kit! 🤘🏼
Very smooth
Ohgod it sounds so good!
Sounds insane honestly. I'd buy this 💯💯
Kit sounds great. You’re one hell of a drummer dude 🤟🏻
I love the sound of the bass
Awesome work Samus!
Fun Fact: A Bassdrum replacement Head costs around $210
Ummmm…..yeah fuck that shit
Where can I find them?
@@hex5452 ask your local music Store. They are only supplied by Vox themself as far as I know. At least in Germany
Good video Samus, never seen that set before.
Bro the Mario song is so nostalgic I remember watching the show as a kid
6:08 I thought he was going to go OH AHAHAHAHAHAH!!!!
That disco bit is where it fit best IMO.
I haven’t heard that song from that show in over 30 years and I knew every single word as they were singing it! Ha ha ha ha ha ha
The socks add the perfect touch. Cool shit Sam
This kit sounds glorious! Those toms!!
Dude, I've been eyeing one of these...it sounds pretty damn amazing...
That kit sounds really good!
The track Island Swing from Donkey Kong Country 1 must sound amazing on this kit.
vox is such a beautiful company
I never thought I’d see a company brand those old kits back. Nor did I think I’d ever have the opportunity to try one. As a kid I remember looking at those old kits in pictures and just thinking what it would be like to play one. Looks like I may just have to pick one up now… 😉
Sam's face at 6:39 🤣🤣🤣
It actually sounds great. Nice to see you branch outside of metal.
Ah yes! The Rotting Pumpkin Bass drum
Samus is a machine with no triggers hahaha, I saw the Matt Gartska reaction last week.
The real winner of todays video! It’s Okay to Fart socks.
Your drumming was so fire that the kick started melting
