Don't bother mate, the Roland equivalent is far better! As some of you might remember, I was constantly having problems with my DTXIIIsp; the kick drum would ...
Do you think the TD-6V sound module (brain) would work on the yamaha pads... would be cheaper than replacing the whole set. Maybe just replace the snare with...
The reason why I chose the DTX3sp over the Roland kit was because of the mesh head! Yes it is good but I have a problem with noise and my neighbours and I felt...
Yeah, replacing the snare with the Roland meash head woulcertainly make a difference with your drumming, just as long as they are compatible with each other....
Nick, It depends on your definition of "work." Traditionally, Yamaha pads have mated better with Yamaha electronics, and likewise on the Roland side. Roland,...
Hi all: I've personally never played an acoustic drumset where the heads felt like the mesh heads or rubber pads available on any e-drum. Of the different pads...
John, These are good points. Many people regard e-drums as more sui generis than as substitutes for acoustic drums. Nonetheless, e-drums are often used as...
Vern, I see it, I see it. I want one. I want one. Is that you in the middle of that group picture? I notice that you're quite a bit older than the rest of...
What a day! Emails from the group owner -- Ed Emails from group moderators - OGD and VERN The only one missing moderator to chime in is Stewart.......... Are...
... So, you have a basic stamp laying about anywhere? it's pretty simple to build. :) ... Heh! Nope, thats not me. I'm the one who took that picture. As for...
Vern, I kinda knew that it wasn't you, but the line had potential. I couldn't pass it up. As for Lothar and the Hand People's instrument, I'll just take one...
Ed, You're a gentleman and a scholar. I agree with everything you've said. I will admit, I use my DTXpress III on about 99% of my live gigs now, which range...
... Hi JAM, Good musicians certainly do a better job of making inferior gear sound better, if only because their playing helps to overshadow it. And many kinds...
I don't know how you could think for one minute that the mesh head is louder than rubber??? It's hollow!!! It can't be louder...... As I'm writing this, I'm...
... Chris, In a comparison of strikes purely on the heads, mesh is a degree quieter than rubber. But most drummers also hit the rims on mesh pads, at least...
"But an idea for an interesting thread might be to have people who use their e-kit mainly as a substitute for an acoustic kit to explain to what extent it...
We haven't seen a continuing discussion for a long time. Let's lift joeR's response to my suggestion for a new subject heading and and see if we get anywhere. ...
Good point Ed, my mesh snare has a rubber rim on it, as it also is a seperate trigger as you most probably know. However, I did the test and you're right....
..If just recently realised this because I don't do a lot of Cymbal Choking, let alone do lot of Midi Recording...If I record myself playing my kit, using my...
Greetings: Anybody have any suggestions on a real comfortable drum throne. I have the DTXpressIII SP and the OEM unit is OK, but something a little cushier...
My butt highly recommends the Roc-N-Soc seat. After two productions in the pit with a standard seat I decided it was worth the extra cash. And it really is. I...
My g/f bought me a Pearl drum stool which works except a) it creaks, and b) my tutor recommended I buy one that turns to adjust the height as ones that require...
Greetings: Thanks for all recommendations on a cushy throne. I think I will look seriously at the Roc N Soc. Next on my list is a Double Kick! What is the...
I second the Roc and Sock. I have the one with the back rest and it's been awesome. I always have to kick a cat out of it when I sit down to play. ... have...
Hi All, I live in the UK and have had a DTXpress III for about 18 months - just home use for fun. Never had a problem until now and it's a weird one: My hihat...
I was having a different but equally weird problem with my kick trigger. It turned out to be the lead. If you haven't already swapped it out, try it. You never...
