Kraft Music - KAT Percussion KT3 Digital Drum Set Demo with Mark Moralez

[@brettfields9761]

Sure, there are always more and more features to pursue in any form of tech. If you're looking at particular price points however, the KT2 And KT3 kits seem to offer the greatest bang for your buck. I'm brand new to edrums so my learning curve was steep. Lots of research and limited funds led me to my KT2. I love the sounds and the easy programming interface. Mark was kind and tolerant with my after sales tech questions. By the way Mark, I've started saving for my KT4 module. I should be ready by the time you guys are.

[@Glisson]

This looks much better than my Alesis dm10 that I used to have. I'll definitely be getting this for the studio and I'll use it with Steven Slate Drums Platinum. I'm pretty exited to get my hands on this eventually :)

[@jasontele]

Awesome drummer! Electric drums have come a long way.

[@AshtonSmith]

Can I record into a DAW but multitrack the drums ?

[@lisawilson2370]

I'm getting this one turn in my alesis nitro mesh for this one it be my second Kat I had the kat2

[@JakeGroves117]

Is there a factory reset for the kt3? I got a store model and all the settings for the stock kits are all messed up

[@iz3517]

I have it it works great there is so much different sound my favorite kit is number 9

[@JRMcNeelyJR]

Man I can't hear my drums when I'm playing to songs on my phone. I can hear my snare a little and my bass drum but the cymbals are really low. The whole kit is too low even when I turn them up in the settings.

[@demsten4393]

sounds good...was a bit Leary at 1st, cus I never heard of them...having 2nd thoughts after seeing this demo

[@chesterschannel6627]

if you are using headphones would people still be able to hear you it all the drums and cymbals with no sound?

[@kylenelson8417]

is there way to get a double bass pedal on this kit?

[@Uptothestarsmetal]

Yeah, double bass pedal works fine!

[@edgarfunes5222]

Is it possible to use an auxiliary hi hat stand? As the KT4 does?

[@haiderabdullah7244]

can you do a side stick on the snare?

[@georgiivanov61]

yes

[@scottlowell493]

These sound better than alesis or simmons. I am wondering how the snare rolls. On a cheap kit, the snare roll just sounds like separate "tat tat tat" without ever sounding smooth.

[@vaggelisclairvoyantkeramid4275]

Hello everybody! I want to ask if can i add,or replace, or drag and drop other-different- drum audio sound sample (such us another snare sample) into my KAT 3 module? And if i can do this, what kind of audio sound sample do I must have to add to make it read and works o.k.? (such as: wav or mp3..etc.. types)

[@donthateme4beingperfect858]

hi i have had my drum set for 6 months and my cymbals keep glitching how do i fix it

[@1Raion]

Same here I have kt2 and the crash and snare glitch what should I do

[@larryturner2830]

Received my KAT KT3 yesterday with a Simmons DA200 amp. Can anyone guide me to what cable or cables I need to buy to connect the drums to the amp?

[@mikemitchell7529]

I played a kt2 today and enjoyed it and will most likely pick one up for practicing. Apart from the extra Tom and cymbal you get with the kt3, is there any other differences? is the module/brain the same? thanks to anyone who can answer

[@ZandrielGrimm]

The module is much better than the KT2, including more sounds and kits. Plus it looks better imho

[@demsten4393]

does it have the rim shot feature?

[@ZandrielGrimm]

Sorry I didn't see that you had responded. Yes, it does have a rim shot feature as demonstrated by... I believe his name is Antoine Fadavi? He has plenty of KAT KT3 and I believe KT4 tutorials as well.

[@taufeeqiklim2801]

hi Mark. My crash cymbals doesn't seems to have the choking feature. Any help will be good if i had missed any of the settings. Thanks

[@Drumaddict63]

+taufiqleftwinger Make sure you don't have the 12" hi-hat pad setup on your crash cymbal arm. Look under the pad and you'll see a label that says hi-hat. That pad should be used as a hi-hat since it is single zone and not dual zone like the crash pads.

[@jnd702]

Can you mix kt3 or kt3 pads or cymbals pads with the kt4 drums as add-on's?

[@yashaswi007]

Hi Can anyone tell me how to play along with drumless tracks using usb port? I understand that roland allows flash drive connection to directly play from memory.. but kat kt3 has a different usb port. I'm stumped.

[@MJamesIII]

Do you all have a demo of the Alesis DM10 X Kit

[@joshaandjosephine1041]

Hi, just wondering if i am able to connect my mp3 player into this drumkit and play along to it on the same headphone? Cheers looking forward for your reply.

[@Drumaddict63]

+Josh Finau Hi Josh, yes the aux input does allow you to mix the incoming music with the drums and route to the headphones.

[@jadipeperzak4034]

+Mark Moralez do you have a high tuned snare drum setting just like Someone like chad Smith has it , in the build in sounds of the kit

[@LevitatorMusic]

It's funny to me to see people talking crap about the white pads yet everyone goes gaga over Roland....who uses white mesh...makes no sense.

[@ZandrielGrimm]

EXACTLY!

[@demonocusmetalocus3558]

Because white mesh heads look great and white rubber heads look like trash

[@mr.klunee4103]

It's more about the way a mesh pad feels under your stick vs a hard rubber pad

[@BoundInChains]

@@mr.klunee4103 Kant you see it's for the greater good? lol

[@randywoolum2648]

People can say what they want about KAT....yeah, they're kits may not have all the looks and "acoustic style" appointments that the Roland kits have, but KAT is a very well known manufacturer of electronic percussion products, and they don't have to put a $7500 price tag on their kits either!!!! Anyone who'd spend almost $8K on a set of electric drums is someone who's got more money than brains. Roland makes those V-Drums to try and emulate the feel and sound of an acoustic kit, and it doesn't....nomatter what you do, NO electronic kit will be the same as an acoustic kit. Not saying they're not cool as hell, but mesh heads, rubber cymbals, and the drum's sound coming out of headphones or an amp is totally different than wood drums and actual bronze cymbals. And for $8K, you could get a pre-owned good set of electronic drums, and a hell of a nice acoustic kit with all the bells & whistles you want, and still probably have money left over. Roland products are superb.....but they're delusional when it comes to their electronic kits.

[@romeoguitar]

am looking to buy my new kit ,which would be better Alesis DM10 Studio Kit or KAT Percussion KT3?? thanks

[@johnschisler5381]

I can't believe someone said Kat over alesis lol. alesis all the way

[@ivantaler]

Qual é melhor; Kt3 ou X-pro ED 100 ?

[@billygisnotmydrummer2128]

Anyone know if you can use ezdrummer with this?

[@toriac22]

were do you get that kit

[@ZandrielGrimm]

Look in the description and you'll see a link to Kraft music. They'll set you up with a brilliant bundle and reliable services. But if you don't wanna do that, there's also Amazon, Sweetwater and various other places

[@larryturner2830]

I have the Kat k3 in a shopping cart online. I just can't bring myself to click proceed.

[@larryturner2830]

Ordered.

[@larryturner2830]

2 more days!

[@plotorange4580]

Is it good

[@TylerNOS386277]

You people at Kat will love to read this. I'm sending my piece of crap $2,499.99 Roland kit back to Musician's Friend tomorrow & this kit actually looks like what I'm looking for in a kit. Love the fact all actually offer dual triggers on your cymbals, actually offer 4 cymbals & not just 2, & even have a 4th tom. My question is: How are yall's cymbal sound selection? Is there a good variety of Crash, Splash, China, & small Bell cymbal sounds? I'm not looking for whistles, clicks, cow bells, & claps, I need authentic recordings of real cymbals.

[@juliancwcwcw]

TylerNOS386277 Did you get a KAT in the end?

[@TylerNOS386277]

I did, but after waiting 2 months on a back order list, it arrived and I was so displeased with it I was on the phone with musicians friend that next day getting my return labels and got it refunded.

[@juliancwcwcw]

I had a similar experience with KAT. I bought their KTMP1 hand percussion pad but sold it within a week. For me it was its terrible MIDI sounds...it reminded me of an 80's drum machine lol.

[@TylerNOS386277]

It's clear electronic kits are offering crappier sounds and then motivating customers to buy aftermarket sound libraries. This is such a horrible business plan. Why offer a kit for $1,000 then advise your customers to go to some other company to spend 500 additional dollars for better sounds when you could just offer Good sounds with the kit and have a sticker price of $1,500?? That's such a loss of potential profits.

[@TylerNOS386277]

But for me, it wasn't just a sound issue. You know how you can't speak to def people in a regular calm tone and instead you must scream? Well I say both Roland and KAT, plus probably many other kits, are sensitivity Def, meaning "to get the sounds to trigger full volume you must hit the pads as hard as you can.". This is horrible for Me specifically because I need super sensitivity to do a metal drumming technique which is called a 'Gravity Blast'. On the Roland kit it was barely audible, and the KAT kit would pick up anything.

[@iz3517]

And 16

[@MrJoeyBoombotz]

Sounds pretty good....but you need more cowbell.

[@danielskoffa]

Lol

[@Stratocoaster08]

Personally I love the white color... as I do with most instruments... I'm so sick of every single piece of music equipment, anywhere, just being the same dark grey or black appearance... the red's cool too! I'm more of a blue fan, but that's a pointless things to say lol. If you're worried about a piece of equipment looking 'childish' 'cheap' or 'like a toy' ...then you're probably not doing this for the right reasons. If you don't like it, totally fine...but if you do, and you can play the hell out of them...who cares if they appear toy-like? Sounds may not be the greatest, but these days that is so easily remedied...

[@AlainCovers]

best edrum ive saw

[@MrEmanthedrummer]

I don’t know. The module just looks like a toy to me. Maybe it’s all the red.

[@netterstyl]

After first brief look and listen: 1. Bad aesthetics - because of the colors, has the appearance of a child's kit. Appears cheap, whether or not it is. Guys play music to get girls, and this kit ain't gonna do that. 2. Plastic frame hardware is a big concern, and _is_ cheap. 3. Extra floor tom is an extravagance - should've put resources elsewhere. 4. Needs hi-hat stand. 5. Cymbals lag the field. That's saying something, because most _all_ e-cymbals are nothing to brag about at this point in time. But these are especially bad sounding. 6. Soft bass drum beater is _too_ soft. Good thing you're not stuck with it. 7. Drum pad diameters are _ahead_ of the field. Other makers are really playing this feature as a bait-and-switch to go from smaller to larger. 8. Drums sound good, but everyone has that knocked at this point in time. 9. Appears to have good bang-for-the-buck. 10. Bass pad looks to be actually large enough for double beater, instead of pretending to be. 11. Replacement parts? I can _still_ get parts from Roland for one of their synths made back in the Dark Ages - even trim parts. And I don't have to go through a frickin' Act of Congress to do it. 12. Haven't learned enough about module and tweakability to comment on that at all, or on how much like real drum heads the feel of the pads are.

[@willymccabe6602]

netterstyl guys play music to get girls? beyond stupid. Take up something else

[@graytss]

Honestly 999$ for this kit. Bad choice I’m sorry Kat. Take a look at the Yamaha dtx522k for 799$
