The bluetooth keyboard thing blew my mind. Naming kits on most modules is like going back in time to 1990s effect processors, using the scroll wheel and arrow keys to seek through 100 lower case, upper case, numbers and special characters. Takes forever.

@NickyNicest Ай бұрын

Ya some of the leading brand modules are definitely archaic. However I think we are going to start seeing modules be a thing of the past as companies adopt standard midi interfaces to VST plugins similar to the DWe kit and Soundworks.

@BatManWayneCorp Ай бұрын

One thing I always loved about the expensive Rolands (TD35, methinks) was that you could really fiddle with your kit, since the sound was completely generated by a drum model. So you could fiddle with the room size and material, mic positions, drum dimensions (depth and width independently), head types, dampening material and position on the head, etc pp, until you had really dialed in the exact sound you were looking for and it felt like really fiddling with a drum, not just adapting the drum sample. The Alesis has a small fraction of those capabilities, but far from what the Roland was capable of. The only thing all Rolands lack imho is proper attack in the BD and Snare.

@simplesimon4561 Ай бұрын

Did you happen to notice if you wanted to setup the kit in a "left handed" config if the the onscreen diagrams would display correctly and that the left/right fade would move in the correct direction? Left handed config in my world means playing the bass drum on the left root, high hat and snare on the right side of the kit with the toms going from high to low, right to left

@NickyNicest Ай бұрын

It’s a decent kit but at this price bracket I’m definitely going with the TD-27kv2 and second to that I’m going efnote 5x. Tho I will say the strata prime definitely has the best module on the market right now, but I think most companies will transition to standard midi interfaces to VST in the near future anyway.

My personal choice is the efnote 3x

@Laurence_Balfour Ай бұрын

Honestly this kit is very over-hyped. Great ideas and some cool sounds, but it still has the classic 'oh no it's broken after 4 months' Alesis build quality. At the music shop I work at in the UK, both rack toms have broken and it was put on display on the day of release. For context, we've had a TD-17, TD-27 and VAD 507 on display for years and they are still fully functional whilst all the Alesis gear has broken after a few months

I love your content and your dry delivery. That being said, because the information in your videos is so good, I sometimes forget how ridiculously sick you are as a drummer. Don't get me wrong, it's never lost on me that you are a great drummer. But, you'll be noodling along, showing the tone-blending capabilities of an Alesis e-kit and, all of a sudden, whip out a wicked-sick, super tasty, buttery-smooth fill that makes my tummy feel weird...but in a good way... I promise. Keep it up!

Curious about something. Have e-drums made any advancements as far as playing with brushes is concerned? Last I checked, they wouldn't work as one may expect.

@fallenshallrise Ай бұрын

I don't think so. I think the work-around is to load a brush sound onto a pad and play the patterns with your sticks. My module has brushed snare sounds available so I am guessing that is what they are for.
