r/edrums

I've never done this, my input from my drum is picked up in edrumin, so that works. I have no idea what to do to get that into the Hertz vst, nothing online is helping as it's telling me to do things I can't even find in the vst app. Can someone please help and tell me what to do like I am 5 years old. I can't connect my midi inputs from edrumin to the vst. And Hertz just had videos about how good their drums sound not about connecting your midi to Hertz, please someone help.

To the scumbag who swooped in and screwed me over… F**K YOU!

I managed to work out a deal with an authorized dealer on eBay for a “buy now” open box td516. They agreed to knock 100 off their listing price for me bringing it to $3200 w/ free shipping.

They DM’d me that they lowered the cost for me and when I went to make the purchase it said OOS.

Some jerk off bought the kit from right underneath me.

I pretty much brokered a killer deal for someone else. 🤦🏻

Thanks for ruining my week, asshat.

Sorry, I had to vent about this somewhere. Pretty bummed about it. 😩😔

if any of it helps I'd very likely assume it's a cheaper or thrifted synth as the creator was known with working with lower budget machines. I've been searching for the china cymbal and orchestral hit of the artists work for about 2 years I believe. his work includes blod besvimelse, corneus and a lot of other side projects and a lot of them seem to be using this specific drum synth.

Does anyone know how Alex gets those stereo drum sounds in his earlier work, like in "What if I go" and "Move me". Like when a drum hit plays in both the left and right ear at the same time, yet you don't interpret it as in the centre, but actually as left and right at the same time. I tried panning a kick left and right in my DAW, but it just registered as a central kick, summing the volume of both stereo channels. So the same kick but louder and still in the centre. A fix I tried was slightly delaying the kick in one of the channels while leaving the other one unchanged. It kind of worked but still didn't have the same effect. I also tried changing the pitch of one of the kicks but still had no luck. Any help would be greatly appreciated. Thank you!!

Hello everyone, I recently bough a Roland TD316, I think that in general the v31 module has excellent sounds, however the sounds especially of snare do not convince me at all. I have been installing the expansion packages from Roland cloud and they have surprised me favorably. Did anyone buy a lifetime key at Roland Cloud? I would like to buy the DW Santa Monica mapple drummer position, does anyone have a reference price?

Additionally there a place to download good snare sounds for free?

Thx for reading

Hello!

You guys were so helpful in pointing me to Tama double pedals on my last post. Sounds like the way to go so wanted to make a new post for suggestions on which models you'd recommend. Thank you in advance!

Hello! I'm fairly new to drums, especially when it comes to different models, types, features, etc. I'm just upgraded my Roland TD 11 to the TD 516 (still setting it up but very excited). As I was setting it up, I deep dove into my double pedal settings, even more simpler than that, how to optimize double strokes on a single pedal.

I realized, that although it can accomplish it with my dw3000, I feel like the pedal length is not long enough so when I do the heel portion of it and then the top portion the heel portion doesn't always make a note, now admittedly, this could completely be me. I'm female so not crazy big feet but can get it easily if I rotate my foot slightly off the board.

I'm hoping to gain some recommendations you all would have for somebody who loves playing metal, not crazy fast metal like death metal or thrash metal, more metal core style along with other genres of music but I want to be able to consistently play double pedals and I have the ability to upgrade right now. I'd also love to be able to play Tool at some point so speed isn't the ultimate goal, instead versitily.

I was reading online that longboard direct drive pedals could potentially be the way to go but I also read that they are very unforgiving and maybe not great for beginners to intermediates. I also read that the dw5000s may have a better response than my 3000, and that the 9000s are top tier. But then I also read that Speed Cobras are up there along with DW9000S, Pearls, Etc. Just looking to get a idea of where to go because you all led me to the Roland 516 and know that you guys will help lead me to the right direction.

Thanks in advance!

I’ve had the Alesis Nitro Max for a couple weeks now, and I’m really digging it. Since it came with a 30 day trial of Melodics, I would like to check that out, and I’ve been reading a lot about Clone Hero and would probably check that out too. My computer is a MacBook Pro with an M2 processor.

Do I just need a USB-B to USB-C cable and connect the module straight to my MacBook? Do I need an audio interface?

If I’m playing into Melodics or Clone Hero, do I plug my headphones into the drum module to hear the drums, or will I hear them through the computer? If it’s through the computer, do I need to be running a DAW with a VST, Garage Band, or something else?

Just feeling out there from more experienced players which kit I should get. I just sold my previous Alesis Surge kit and I’m looking to replace/upgrade now that I have a little more money than that initial purchase. A local store has the TD316 for about $1650 USD or I can get a TD516 for about $3700 USD online.

I am an intermediate level drummer in a local band, so it would be primarily for gigging. Considerations for good playability, quality sounds, and ease of transport would all be helpful. An extra $2k isn’t a deal breaker, but I would certainly be much more upset if something were to get damaged through gear hauling with that price tag.

So what would y’all recommend?

Hey all, I have an issue right now with a new TD-07 kit that I gifted my wife for her birthday. I have a couple little cats at home that like to chew things, especially cables, and having lost enough headphone and USB cables to these little furdemons, I need a little help finding a more durable cable that I can leave on the kit long term. I know I can use cable harnesses, zip ties and velcro to hold everything as close as possible to the kit, but I was curious if anyone made a braided or twisted cable that was tougher than the standard trigger cables? Thanks in advance!

I stumbled across a Reddit post here a few years ago that someone had a Drive of thousand of songs that had the original song and one with integrated click for Roland module. Two files per song. If anyone knows what I’m talking about, can you please drop that link?!
