The Titan 50 is also a pretty good option. Less kits to choose from unfortunately, though all the sounds available are a bit more rich than on the Alesis

[@satevo462]

Just a friendly warning. If you live in an apartment and have neighbors below you, they will hate you. I found this out the hard way. It's the bass pedals. You might as well be stomping on the floor with bowling balls. I got the old broomstick banging in the ceiling "STFU"

[@TwoGunToast]

This definitely seems like a good cheaper option. anything cheaper definitely ain't worth it. I bought a super cheap Amazon kit just to get back into drumming since I played when I was younger. Fuckin pads arrived not working. And the ones that did work had shotty sensitivity

[@anarchistfuture]

yeah the kick pedals they send are worth maybe $2. They're a joke. Got the same from my idiot roommate downstairs. @@satevo462

[@dbzcollector9963]

@@satevo462 you don’t have to hit it that hard lol you can either raise the sensitivity or lower the beater to be closer to the trigger. I had this same problem when I got my Alesis surge mesh kit, once I messed around with the kick drum I was able to make it so I barely have to tap it to get a sound. That’s only when I wanna play at night tho in the day time I turn down the sensitivity and let loose on the kick drum lol.

[@TamaHawkLive]

This honestly seems like a significantly more affordable option that hits the same niche the old roland TD 11k hit when it was going for like 1100 bucks. Very cool.

[@747lch]

well they also sound very very different

[@rayshearer]

@@747lchso which one you recommend this one or Roland td-02k?

[@tjhessmon4327]

@@rayshearer Neither ( get the Roland TD-07 instead).... but if your budget is limited...get Roland stuff, it upgradable. The rack supplied with the TD-02 is the same rack supplied with the TD-07 and 17. So you can upgrade later to the PD or PDX pads which are far better than entry pads. The TD-02 is not upgradable with more cymbal/drum pads the TD-07 is, as it allows for an additional crash cymbal. The TD-17 adds cymbal expansion plus and additional aux expansion for another type pad (drum cymbal etc) however the aux on the TD-17 is assigned to tom 4 as a default, but its easy enough to reassign it. However, you will need to reassign it for every kit you use. There is not a global reassign, that I am aware of.

I know im a tottaly opposite style player then sammus(willing to play anything but my skill set is limited) but i appreciate him making me want to play again after not touching a kit(outside of a short time at GC a few months ago) sense 2015. I loved playing for my Church youth group when i was a teen and i would always play to country and Christian rock songs in my house. Someone damaged my floor tom in 2015 and i never had the chance to get it fixed, i live with my mom in a smaller house so playing my old Yamaha would not bode to well for me, this looks like a perfect fit for me. Im 31 on the 23rd of this month and it is time I start playing again. Thank you Samus for inspiring me all these years to want to play again. GOD BLESS sincerely Gabriel Ps. I dont need expensive stuff to make my drumming dreams come true, just somthing afordable that wont break down on me in two seconds, this is why i follow you because you even help out the budget consious players like me. I have known how to play sense age 11 but i have been out of it for roughly 8 years, im ready to get back in the saddle and maybe learn some Stryper music.

[@Kevdot12]

I'm torn between getting the Donner DED-200 or this. I played for about 7 years, but took a massive break due to the apartment life. Do you recommend one or the other? Does one slightly outweigh the other? Thanks so much, and great vids as always!

[@RavenWindrunner]

Considering he did a sort of review of that kit 4 months ago and said this was the best of 2023, I'd assume this is better overall. I don't know for sure but I believe this likely has more options to customize it.

[@jaysonmarion]

I love my ded200s.. hooked up to midi in my daw with ezdrummer and it sounds like a love acoustic kit.

Used that little bass pad for my double pedal for a while until I purchased 2 mesh Alesis Bass pads and oh boy was that soooo much better haha. But that did require me to purchase a 2nd module. Also I discovered that the ride cymbal if I cross hit it my the body of my drum stick it does the bell hit more accurately

[@modsplayr]

HOW WAS THIS @ DAYS AGO

[@VarionJimmy]

@@modsplayrPatreon

[@mikepalmer1971]

So how bad is it as is with a double pedal? My grand daughter has a double pedal for her regular set but I was wondering if she could get away with that pedal on this setup?

[@Zandooooooo]

When just using the one bass pad it comes with to do double bass it sometimes would miss hits because your beaters will hit more to the sides of the pad and not directly in the middle. If just using a single pedal on it you won’t have any problems. I initially modded mine by opening it up and adding a second piezo trigger inside it but I really wanted a mesh bass drum so decided to upgrade

[@Zandooooooo]

If the drum module that comes with it is similar to the original nitro module then there should be 2 additional inputs to add an additional pad or 2 so you could always purchase a 2nd bass pad.

[@DankBeef]

I personally enjoyed playing the Simmons Titan 50 more than the Alesis and even the lower end Roland ekits. But for a beginner or long time drummer who wants a cheaper kit to practice quietly none of these are bad options.

[@tgdrums5374]

Saw the limited time offer for the drumeo edition and thought hey thata a wicked deal, then came to see if you had reviewed the kit. Long story short I ordered it a couple weeks ago and just received it today. Perfect for a apartment where I cant exactly play an acoustic kit anymore.

Alesis are OK kits but not as Robust construction when compared to Roland or Yamaha.... and dont expect acoustic sounds from their module either, nor expansion... thats why they are US $399.00. At this price point, everything is limited and you will outgrow this kit in very short time I always tell folks to start out with a kit that will stay with you for years, such as the DTX 6 or the Roland TD-07 or its bigger brother the TD-17. With this Alesis kit your spending $399.00 to realize you need to spend $800 to $1800.00 in the near future, to get a good kit, Like the Roland TD-07, or 17, or the Yamaha DTX-6

Hello Drummer Jesus

[@DashingGinger]

I needed quiet and minimal space, so I ordered one of these a couple of days ago. I'm just waiting for it to arrive in the store. Neat how you're reviewing it for me.

[@ThiagoNeres1]

How are you liking it so far? I had an acoustic drum set when I lived in a house and now I'm in a 1-bedroom apartment. Considering buying it but a little bit worry about noise even with headphones.

[@DashingGinger]

@ThiagoNeres1 the sound is decent for the price. It took me a bit to figure out setting adjustments to make the sounds I wanted, though, but I'll admit I'm not great with computers. It's definitely a closer feel to an acoustic set thanks to the mesh heads. But it does still feel different. The highhat peddle isn't perfect on response time, so I got low volume cymbals for my acoustic hihat and have it next to the set. Over all at its price it is still worth it in my opinion, but also I'd say find time and a place to practice on an acoustic set as well. Any specific questions just let me know.

[@zachvenus1593]

I have the old old model with expansion pack, 2 things 1. I F-ing love it, and play it daily, bass drum has had to be repaired 5 times but worth it 2. If you play metal you NEED the expansion pack, it is ungodly the stuff you can do. I have a cowbell, slam snare on the snare rim, a punchy regular snare, a china on the expansion cymbal, a sick bell on the ride, a punchy zildjian like crash, a scary hi hat and an 808 like tom on the extra tom. I have only used the provided drum samples. Why you ask? Cuz i customized a couple kits a metal, indie, rap, dance ect. When I get motivated/bored of the sample sounds I will hopefully try the bdf player (cash poor currently)

[@GMR-707]

[@danieldougan269]

How is the realism? Did you find yourself wanting more zones? How was the dynamic range? You're a super-skilled drummer, so I know you could make anything sound good. I know you can't compare this to a $3,500 kit, but does this feel like a toy instead of a real instrument? How does it compare to the Simmons Titan 50 and 70? The Roland TD-01DMK?

Somehow, if these ever get sold in Europe I seriously doubt the price tag will be the same. Things here tend to be more expensive. Although, to be honest with you, I would buy this for that price, and pay the extra for the cymbal and tom.

[@JamesBalazs]

Idk about mainland Europe but I just got one for like $480 (£380) in England Unfortunately more expensive than in the US but there are seriously no better options. The Behringer XD80USB was £20 less brand new but the module on the Alesis is so much better, it makes the Behringer look like a toy. And with people selling 5+ year old TD1DMK for £300 (~$400) second-hand, and TD07 for closer to £500 (~$600), if you can even find one for sale that isn't a scam... A brand new Nitro Max suddenly seems like a good deal.

I am really glad you reviewed this kit, because I was interested in it. I was worried it would be too crappy for the price. I remember trying out the E drum kit at my local store when I was a kid, and being blown away by how cool it was, and how expensive it was. I wonder how kits from 16 years ago compare to these decent budget kits of today. But I mean geez this doesn't seem as good as that Drum tec set 😂

66Samus, you inspired me to pick up drums again, I quit a few years back, but now i'm gonna be back at it with a good ohhhhh yuuuurr!

[@Kadath_Gaming]

I just got this kit after starting the drum lessons I promised myself during the "long stay at home" and its freaking great - you answered the question i had about getting the dark mahogany and drum samples working and I can't wait to try them. ALL OF THEM MWHAHAHAHAAAA‼️‼️ (double kick pedal and tom + cymbal expansion arrives this week)

[@whrussy]

Got this as a gift for Christmas, cant wait to set it up and play!

Hey how is the Alesis electronic kit I was thinking about getting one

[@fungus_am0nguz644]

Dude this is actually really good at that price point, i remember in the early 00s that an e kit sounding like this would be 1.5k easy. For 400 bucks, to mess around or learn this is a good option. Great video.

Excellent price!!!👍🤜🥁🤛👍. Merry Christmas 66Samus and your beautiful Family!!! 👪 👍⭐️🎁🎁🎁⭐️👍

I just bought the Nitro Max with the expansion pack(extra tom & cymbal) and I absolutely love it! I was afraid some of the toms or cymbals weren’t going to register all my hits but I haven’t had any problems. I was also worried the preset kit sounds were gonna sound cheap but they sound pretty good, i still prefer using Ableton since it has more variety and better accessibility to sounds. I’d also recommend using a snare stand for the snare since it does wobble when playing heavy. Overall I love it and definitely recommend it💯

@markcarreon9830 - thank you for this! Hearing other user reviews on a product I’m considering is very helpful. 🥁 🍻

02:58 - everything is a drum.

[@fumedrummer]

I had the same issue with the ride cymbal becoming a bell with the Alesis DR6 over a decade ago. Glad to see they worked that out.

[@kittywampusdrums4963]

I wired my own piezoelectric discs and was able to make a dual zone ride with the DM10 module, I imagine any modules newer than that one should be able to.

Is this still a good option for beginners in 2024? And I'd like to know if it could be good for jazz and metalcore, since these 2 are my fav genres that I'd like to learn on drums. I'm like in love with buddy rich but at the same time I fucking love parkway drive

[@66Samus]

is it the best option for beginners in 2024 :)

[@matwetton]

I own this kit as a beginner (with the extra Tom and cymbal package) it is a fantastic kit. The criticisms of it that the rack is still a bit wobbly is valid and the spring snare pedal is a bit meh but for the money it's great.

[@FaithsFallen]

Steel bb pellets! Pop the top covers off the legs and fill with bb pellets! This will fix your issue!

[@matwetton]

@FaithsFallen great idea thanks. It's not a massive problem really just something for people to be aware of with this kit

[@Martin_Bernard]

@@matwetton and add Superior Drummer 3 and it will sound like 100 000$ kits

[@brandonreyes4325]

I upgraded the kick pad to a Simmons Sd600kick works great for double bass

[@petermajoros7471]

Hey Sam you are effing amazing no matter what you playing on. Have you ever tried bucket drumming?

[@LeMecDuDimanche]

You convinced me to buy it. I just had to watch it fully three times as I enjoyed the skills, the humor and the socks. I’ll receive it Wednesday. Can’t wait ! I’m sure I’ll say « sex » after the first hit.

[@66Samus]

hahahaha that's awesome dude!! you will have so much fun :)

[@l3joint]

60 practice songs built in, let's try some of these... Goes super saiyan on the kit lol

[@ZenkoffR]

Good afternoon, Tell me, I couldn’t find the cardan for the kick drum (the second pedal for the kick drum) using your links, could you provide a link to it?

[@66Samus]

here is a good one :) amzn.to/3TvhiY2

[@PaulOrtiz]

Great demo - this looks fantastic. I’m not a drummer but I enjoy drumming, so as much as I’d love to be minted enough to get a big-boy TD it’s just not justifiable. QQ; any issues with crosstalk or odd velocity sensitivity? It’s my only hesitation with cheaper kits. If it feels good, I’d strongly consider it.
