Yamaha DD65 Digital Drum Set

[@capoman1]

This thing looks like a pretty good buy. Especially for someone who isn't sure about getting into a full electronic kit, or doesn't have the room for one. The demo guy cracks me up with his rock faces when playing!

[@anamericancitizen2971]

I know this is years later but I just ordered the DD75, so I like this video, very helpful

[@averagejackmedia609]

Lmao I just got the DD75 for my birthday 2 months ago.. Lovely practice tool for working out some grooves.

[@banjominer9682]

@@averagejackmedia609 i got a used one for the lockdowns...i cant stop playing it..

[@andoo345]

i got a dd-6 my grand father gave me, talk about vintage, im a guitarist, but i still like to have fun on the drums xD, really want this

[@Graeme4269]

Love this dudes face when he is playing, gets right into it !

[@spooney64]

One of the best tips is the snare drum stand. There is no indication what so ever in the hand book for this. I bought an inexpensive solid snare stand it it works like a treat. I suggest to upgrade to pedals. The simple step on triggers are just toys.

[@Diamondblade2008]

The snare pad on my DD-65 has EXACTLY the same problem. There is a 'dead' area on the pad that doesn't sound no matter how hard you hit it.

[@cantstopmike311]

The hand drumming was probably the best sounding feature of this.

[@ZeroStako]

This is perfect for sat night jamming. I need this.

[@TheBabble007]

i have got the yamaha DD65 it is awsome !!

[@MrBenMcLean]

This guy really sells it well. I already have one but I wasn't aware of all the great features! One thing I want to know is how I can get started really learning how to play the drums now that I have a DD-65.

[@gr8guy900]

Just play along with your favorite songs

[@Zepquenodoforro]

Wonderful presentation Congratulation!

[@burubura]

WOW! i love to play with hands....

[@Diamondblade2008]

@COPMMUSIC No, it was brand new. I've read its a common problem with the DD-65.

[@bobywins]

Great christmas present!

[@simond528]

You can also plug in a MIDI keyboard controller and play piano with the on-board 128 or so General MIDI (+ XG) voices - nifty!

[@davidnee]

music arts brick and mortar store, looks so much fun!!

[@Diamondblade2008]

@James24884 I still have the DD65 somewhere in my house gathering dust as I now use my DTXPLORER kit.

[@eddy536]

i wanna learn drums and this will be the first drum that i'll ever have... i live in a small apartment and this is my only hope to learn drums ! or i can go weekly to a drum room and rent it hourly !

[@Randuski]

wow. the snare didn't trigger like 8 times in this video. excellent product haha

[@emptylica69]

@jokerhateme yes you can... through the aux port. Mp3 and stuff like that.

[@jamesjeffries5261]

i got my new Yamaha DD-65/YDD-60 yesterday

[@Timothyis]

So Cool. Might just grab that set on Kijiji after all!!

[@tonyjacksons]

Great video thanks

[@arand4]

@FootHillFav its good if you want to make an electronic song on any software that supports midi input

[@ericralls4115]

these things always had issues when you hit two pads at the same time. Only one will play and it happened several times throughout this video to his snare drum.

[@madamejam]

Cool, thanks for the reply.

[@123lifeful]

Greate Song groove...

[@DrummerGrrrl]

@thegovanment I would recommend you purchase a DTXplorer because at least on that, the pads are bigger and have a better stick response than these. That's just my opinion, though...lol.

[@michael86734]

hey cool tutorial thanks I have the yamaha 65 it looks like a cool drums I think is very good for standar people I think you dont need more thanks Cheers.

[@Chicoboy41]

I'm buying one. Thankyou.

[@DocHollidayGames]

Predecessor? Does he mean successor?

[@BrianRumao29]

Hey jaagoficial.. Here r d answers 1.No dey r nt included.. Its an upgrade.. U get pedals lukin lyk buttons 2.D hi hat functions by default as a closed one.. D pedal is oni for d bounce effect.. I am a lil doubtful on dis one bt i guess m ryt.. 3.No dey do not respond to how u hold sticks.. However u cn customise it..

[@victormamaev972]

Для дома это очень хороший инструмент! А если заниматься в наушниках то это никого не беспокоит

[@joerobbo0]

dd55 does have a double bass option its kit 01

[@DrummerGrrrl]

He says you can pack this up and bring it to a jazz gig. Riiiiiiiiiiight! I'd be laughed off the stage if I showed up to play jazz with this thing. Or how about that hot Salsa band down the corner? They'd throw their congas at you if you trotted this thing out. Still, it would be fun to have around the house for jamming. Wow, though! Those percussion sounds are really sweet.

[@adrianofreitas3311]

Great Explanation about the Battery. What is the title of this song from the beginning of the Video ........

[@hilzcrew]

very informative clip...well explained and practice work...Do you have any beginner online starter tutorials for a basic elect drum pad kit user?

[@oldschoolrock4evr]

hes got the beat

[@rexterrocks]

I own one of these and it does have a fault that if you hit a pad too hard a pad next to it can sound. I am a guitar player and just use it for writing ideas and I don't hit the pads hard.

[@giuliamargaria]

Love that cow sound 😂😂😂😂 ok 1 week ago i've bought that drum kit :)

[@pacalvotan3380]

I would think that this could be a useful tool for the drummer to take on the road to use for practice. It's certainly compact enough. Maybe not for an actual show though :-).

[@MonteCarlo185]

Yes you can..

[@fhussain44]

I turned the pedals upside down and duct taped them to a large piece of cardboard. Now they stay in place and I can play the bass drum much more consistently.

[@EBOOKER100]

@rntonp finally somone understands me. Wat if somone cant afford a huge elcric set, if the can ge thic then they can upgrade it to be just as good

[@DrummerGrrrl]

[@KenjoMendez]

ohh my God...i wanna have the optional HH65 hi hat and the KP65 base..D;

[@rexterrocks]

I have one of these and some of the samples sound very real. I put mine through an amp as the speakers on it are useless. It sounds great with the stereo kits with headphones. I don't like the pedals.They are just the same as the previous kit. It only has 2 custom sets you can program which is annoying. The stupid sounds it has like 'Hey Yo' and other words make it seem like a toy. You will find that if you hit one pad one next to it will sound slightly at times. For the price its good tho 6/10

[@ennio997]

instruments and musical gear in general should be financially accessible for everyone, who's got talent got it who doesn't no matter what gibson les paul 1967 and orange ampli you're playing you're going to sound bad anyway

[@correotiempo01]

Je ne suis pas francais, mais... Oui, cet instrument peut marcher avec les auriculaires mais il faut avoir un plug special qui coute pas beaucoup; Oui, cet instrument vous permet pratiquer avec un métronome alors il est possible d'amelliorer vos habilités. Normalement les instruments Yamaha ont le livre du mode d'emploi en anglais, en espagnol et en francais.

[@6Mega6Man6]

He does.

[@danny-jo1rb]

Hahahaha 😂😂😂 when that snare stops working randomly

[@GxAxV]

55 dose do double bass. also as commented the pads didn't even work sometimes when struck with others. i would not upgrade my 55 to this!

[@chentiangemalc]

@ermollejuo um, no? even in this video you can hear two sounds when two pads hit

[@mohaizmay]

is it possible to switch the kick drum with a tom pad , and use the kick pedal as a tom

[@zoruben]

DD-65 rule!

[@choolan]

I used to have the DD55, but returned it because of a pretty huge issue (to me at least). If I would play two sounds at the same time, it would occasionally cut out one of the sounds. It wouldn't do it all the time, but enough to make it a dealbreaker. It also did this with the floor model, so I know it wasn't just my particular kit. Does anyone know if the DD65 still does this? To me, it seems like it still does this - look at 5:19 in the video - 2 consecutive "non-sounds" from the snare

[@candidcomment]

I noticed some snare hits at 5.18 onwards did not trigger?

[@madamejam]

Can you adjust the pad sensitivity? It seems like the snare was missing a lot. Other than that it looks and sounds good.

[@andoo345]

whats better for a guitarist that wants a cheap drumset but cant make alot of noise, this or a more full size one like the simmons sd7pk?

[@charlespalmerii4299]

Impressive... does it come with stand , any new models since this came out ?

[@capoman1]

No way the guitar hero or Rock Band setup is nearly as good: No internal sounds, no midi out, no pressure sensitivity. You couldn't use the Guitar Hero or Rock Band setup to do anything having to do with real music recording. Plus I have seen folks use this as their Rock Band controller: and it allows you to get drum sounds that respond to your playing, whereas the game just plays the drum track for you if you are winning. This gives you real sounds and real interactivity, a great addition.

[@jaagofficial]

nice review i have a few questions. 1 Are the paddles of hihat contrller and kick included in the package? 2 u have shown us that u can switch between hihat controls up to double kick controls, so how would u be able to control the double kick and the hihat at the same time? 3 when we hit a snare or hihat at different positions they make different sounds according to the sensitivity or positioning of the stick impact, does DD65 respond in a similar way to playing and produces the same sound?

[@felipegramacho]

good

[@evacninja]

hey can u tell me the difference and price between the yamaha dd-65 and the yamaha ydd-60

[@SavioShocky]

do i play it heels up or hells down? ... i would like to play it heals up but i'm afraid it will damage the pedals.

[@hoofbags]

I've 2 Yamaha DD55 and both of them have midi in and midi out. I'm wondering if the ones I have are a later edition? Gr8 vid and I'm thinking of getting 1.

[@k2ombs]

Is it possible to connect this to my Yamaha home theatre receiver, and play it amplified along to music videos??

[@sinister066]

raised cymbals. where do I sign.

[@jokerhateme]

Is it possible to add your own songs to drums? Not only these which are already here for example if I wanna add here some ACDC Back In Black how I can add it to them?

[@WinterWineMusic]

I noticed sometimes the snare wouldnt sound.. I was thinking of getting this for giging on low-volume gigs... but that freaked me out

[@alejandrocano88]

I wish the headphone input was on the front

[@baby13threligion]

Hey i'm thinking about getting this. Can you change what drums are where? I would like my hi-hat on the other side and would like to have the pedals set up like double bass. Is that possible on here?

[@KenjoMendez]

It CAN be used in gigz. Just bring a midi i/o & laptop with an "EZ Drummer/Superior Drummer" software installed in it and your good to go~ So don't you call this a toy~..xD

[@tamasg79]

He mentioned jazz gig... Can you imagine that anyone would play on this at a jazz gig?

[@gcsruppert]

GUYS!!!! HIHAT MIDI PROBLEM IS NOW FIXED!!! I bought my DD65 on Oct 2014 from Zzounds and it sends the correct open/closed hihat midi note according to your left pedal position. If you have an older version, contact your local Yamaha service. I am sure they can perform the firmware update to fix it. IT'S A SHAME THAT YAMAHA DOES NOT PUT IT ON THEIR WEBSITE.

[@dgoof7690]

gcsruppert does the power adaptor come with the kit?

[@gcsruppert]

D goof No power supply.... but yamaha also sells it in a kit with power supply and headphones.

[@dgoof7690]

Thanks for the response, I just added one to my order. I already have a drum kit double pedals snare stand etc. I also ordered the two options hi hat pedal and kick drum pad. haven't played for almost thirty years use to play professionally 'jazz fusion" going to give it a whirl again as a retirement plan at almost sixty. seems like a low budget way to test the waters, thanks again

[@gcsruppert]

D goof It's good starting point for a come back... It's small, cheap and good enough to have some fun.

[@bestrickie2]

U R a very good drummer. Do you know if it's possible to create and quantize rhythms on this stunning machine?

[@fearofdark77]

Stop posting these on every video. Seriously.

[@bestrickie2]

Sorry what's got into you? I was only asking a simple question FUCKS SAKE get a life man you grumpy swine Grrr

[@bestrickie2]

If you had answered my SIMPLE question in the first place maybe you would have no cause to grumble HUH

[@fearofdark77]

bestrickie2 You post the same comment on every video I watch about these drums. You don't even listen the whole video. The "U R a very good drummer" is just for emphasis. This behaviour gets me on my nerves...

[@spartanworria]

You are trying to sound very intelligent and intellectual but your just another fuktard on Utube aren't you. Why do I say this? Because if you were smart you would fined out the answer to your own question and not just spam utube with it. And as for intellectual well your replys prove your an idiot

[@TomCei]

Question: To get double bass, could I possibly purchase another bass pedal for the yamaha DD65 and then hook both of them up to a Y in/out wire and then connect it into the Yamaha DD65 - thus having 2 velocity bass pedals and 1 open/close hi-hat pedal?

[@ROOKTABULA]

As i'm listening, the underlying message is: "The older models we sold were pretty much WEAK assed piece of shit."

[@ferox965]

i have a small 8 track tascam porta studio...would this work?

[@alaric007]

i think he meant "basically this is gonna be the SUCCESSOR and not PREDECESSOR."

[@Sora5024]

After I broke the sticks which came with yamaha dd65 I couldn't find that kind of stick. Can someone tell me what kind of sticks are they?

[@arand4]

whats the difference between the yamaha ydd-60

[@iam2strong]

Anyone knows whether the Roadie Kick Rocker will work on this? I've been wanting to get a pressure-sensitive kick rather than the switch button.

[@RockerArtist4Life]

how good are the foot pedals compared to a real one?

[@josemora5296]

please could you explain how I did to adapt the double pedal?

[@hollywoodcandids]

what's your problem dude, he plays awesome..that's what matters ¬¬ GR8 JOB

[@benitokamela5388]

Does this have a marching kit on it wanted to know before buying just really like how marching snares sound

[@Smobus]

Alors depuis 3 ans comment ça se passe? Y a la DD 75 maintenant qui est faut le dire quand même bien meilleure que la DD 65 Je te la conseillerais les yeux fermés.

[@radiothax]
