I agree 110%! Having this same technology but in a not so expensive PDP shell pack would be amazing! This opens the doors for so many options including schools and churches that usually don't have big budgets for this kind of thing. I also agree with the idea of potentially selling an "electronics pack" only which would include the triggers and module, mounting brackets, mesh heads and cymbals. Most drummers already have the hardware they would need and may not need to buy new shells. DW could revolutionize this space even more with a conversion kit option and literally be in every tier of electronic drums. Also, eventually iPad integration would be nice.

@thomaskennydrums 8 ай бұрын
The presence of the triggers would almost definitely ruin the acoustic sound of the drum, in order to receive signal they need to touch the batter head in the centre and edge which would noticeably mute the head, and I imagine the presence of the assembly between the batter and resonant head would have a pretty major negative impact on the sound. I also can't imagine the trigger responding well to a mylar head, both in terms of receiving notes and physical wear on the trigger.

The technology seems impressive, and it does seem to be the closest to an acoustic kit of all edrums, but I was surprised Shane said this kit was "for everyone". If the technology filters down to more affordable kits, maybe, but as it stands I can't help but think anyone who can afford the full 5 piece with cymbals and has the space to use it at home, doesn't currently have the problem of needing a one-kit-does-all solution. The ability to practice silently at home and use the same kit acoustically on the road I really doubt is a consideration for people with $10k to drop. Especially when you think you could have a serious edrum kit AND a serious acoustic kit, and no need to disassemble either, for the same money. The convenience is not a selling point at this price point. Like others have said, if the electronic guts become available to put in any acoustic kit, I guess it starts to make more sense, but as it is, it seems to be a unnecessary 'trick' IMHO
@jasonb2180 8 ай бұрын
I had the same thought. For the price of the set (and the cymbals), one could get a very high-end set, real cymbals, and a good electronic set with cymbal pads. Very nice drums for sure, in any case.

It is a good sounding e kit, very seamless technology inside a real high end drum kit. When tuned as fine as Tony did, it made drum samples sound cheap, specially the snare, and that to me is the best thing, because if it fails, you end up with a true high end instrument. BTW the drum samples are excellent, so also there's that. First e kit that truly surprised me because is beautiful. something I really want to play because of how it looks and feel and not because I need to, due to volume or space issues

For my ears, there`s nothing compare to a wood natural air vibration across the overall atmosphere, so Ioved the its sound in the acustic performance. The shells not only have a punchy and cutting path, they sing, so say so, literaly. Amazing from DW team Staff, everyone over there.

Great kit. I love that finish. The acoustic was tuned and mixed very well. Great job! The cost of $11K is high, but when you think about all that you get for that.... a full 5 piece kit, full cymbal pak, all the hardware, hi-hat stand, DW5000 bass pedal, combo tom & cymbal stands, and the Soundworks software with the interfaces, plus, etc. And, you get a true 9-ply maple acoustic kit. All you need is acoustic heads and cymbals. With it being electronic, no mics needed. I think with all you get, along with the wireless techbology, it is fairly priced. However, I think they should give you the acoustic heads and a Zildjian acoustic cymbal pak to truly give you the works! Then, it would be even more worthy of the price tag. If electronic drummers trade-in or sell the e-kit they currently have and purchase this one, the price really becomes even more attractive.

It looks like it's be pitched via Roland's sales model of the VAD706, with preset shell, sizes and finishes. I was looking forward to the DW 'customisation' model, which this is not & doesnt make a switch from my expanded 706 to a DW wireless an option. When will DW allow you to order the finish you want, the wood shell you'd like & in the sizes you'd like? That's when this becomes a contender for me to replace the VAD706. (I already have a Tama Star Maple, hence the maple isn't a selling point to me). Thanks!

I agree that this is an amazing breakthrough in technology. I still don’t think that the cymbals are to the point where they can be used professionally but the drums sound fantastic and I bet in a mix it would be impossible to determine that it is an electric kit. I think that the real audience for something like this is a touring arena drummer. Pair the tubs with some real cymbals and I bet you would have an amazing sounding kit that would be really easy to setup and tear down and get the same sound night after night no matter what room you are playing in. As with any new technology it is always expensive at first but will eventually trickle down to a more reasonable price point. I assume that this will be no different. I’m curious, are you able to play the set with the triggers and real heads? That would be pretty cool and the best of both worlds
@mrsayang 8 ай бұрын
So funny.....I only started to smile after you turned it into acoustic with real heads and cymbals....that sounds sooo much better. I started to learn drums on a Roland e-kit and I hated the dull module sounds so much that I bought a Tama Starclassic walnut/birch and since that day my e-kit fell asleep. I always prefer acoustic over an e-kit, even with this high end e-kit. But hands down, DW did a great job with this one.
@patricetrahan7287 8 ай бұрын
Absolutely great product, the idea of wireless electronics is genius. As a weekender musician, this has huge potential going back and forth between an acoustic drum and a edrum based on room size and venue style, or depending on the need and the sounds are both incredibly good - kuddos!!!! Now, that being said, the targetted audience for such a product is unclear to me. The pricetag these carry definitely aims at pro to semi-pro players with a lot of money and this community of drummers likely has enough money to purchase distinct drums (acoustic and edrum) so they might not necessarily go for a swiss knife this kit is. So it leaves the weekender as the targetted audience but at that pricetag, you have to be a wealthy one… so while being an exceptionnal product, I’m not sure I’m willing to lay down the amount of money required. I’ll sleep on it for a while and continue micing my drums up til I make a final decision :) Thanks Drum Center, great review - keep it up!
@ChurchWorshipTB 8 ай бұрын
I think the target audience is the same it's always been with electronic drums 1. Places where mic placement is highly problematic because of feedback, bleed, etc. 2. Places where playing with acoustic drums is problematic because of volume levels, mic placement---i.e. small rooms, playing with choirs, churches, etc. 3. Situations where drummers are playing a WIDE variety of styles in a single song set and drummers want to switch sounds between charts. 4. Practice (or recording) in an apartment or similar environment where volume levels must be tightly controlled.
@StereoAnthony 8 ай бұрын
I agree, I don't believe the potential target market is even big enough to generate much in sales, as you mentioned, most of players likely have a large collection of acoustic drums to begin with. The big prize here is the wireless trigger system. Having a beautiful DW kit would be nice, sure, but I think the vast majority of people playing electronic drums, are doing so for the variety of reason @ChurchWorship outlined. Personally, I'd take all the triggers and put them in any old shell, just to have the wireless capabilities. We'll see what Roland releases with their new flagship kits with this tech in them.
@ChurchWorshipTB 8 ай бұрын
@@StereoAnthony But as several others have pointed out, there is no reason the guts of the electronic system couldn’t be offered with a much cheaper (yet still high quality) shell pack. Offer the system with Gretsch Renown shells and cut the price by 30-40%. Or offer the electronics/cymbals/mesh heads as a retrofit, cut the price by 50-60%.
@StereoAnthony 8 ай бұрын
@@ChurchWorshipTB Absolutely agree. That being said for me personally, I'm in the EDrum camp of not wanting full size shells, as I prefer pads that take up much less room and are easier to transport. I would prefer this trigger system be built into pads I could purchase, but if the system becomes available in this format, I'll likely buy a cheap acoustic kit, and cut down the shells to make them as thin as possible. Either way, a very exciting prospect!

Pretty amazing, and a real treat to wake up to find these out now. This will most certainly be totally game changing technology. I would imagine that Roland will start releasing some of their own wireless high end kits, that will be at least cheaper than these. The market demographic for these will be pros or the big touring bands that can afford it, which I don't imagine it too big in the first place, so if the company wants to make any money they 'll need to make them more accessible. I imagine it's only a matter of time until Yamaha, Alesis, or any of the others will reverse engineer the tech. I hope we'll see just the trigger system available at some point.

The cymbals, especially the hi hat are very noisy. It was a definitely no go at my church when they realized they’re still have to put up plexiglass just to block the sound of them. Stiff as a board too, putting in a good amount of time on these cymbals is not going to be good on the wrists. Stiffer than the old school Simmons plastic pads. The VST sounds alright though.

Rather than a laptop or module, can you run the interface through an iPad? We all know laptops are not stage friendly for ‘accidents’ 😂 Also, any idea who will stock/available in UK? Thanks for the video-really insightful.

what happened in history with the development of drums and technology in terms of some kind of innovation is that the acoustic drum always sounded better than any hybrid version. it is certainly convenient to have a combination of an acoustic drum and some modules where the diversity of sounds is completed and as such they are integrated into the whole picture of the production itself. I think that the charm and the possibilities of the interpretation itself, which the acoustic drum provides, are being lost.

I was hoping to use the triggers AND acoustic sounds at the same time! I don’t want to just trigger drum sounds with my drums ya know 😂

This could be perfect for me, depending on just how "loud" the cymbals are. Have you put a db meter near them?

I don't need silent, just reduced.

They are loud. WAY less sustain than a real cymbal, but they definitely are not designed to be super quiet.

0:10: first shell is B sharp (not C, it’s a bit flat for that).

Right @ around 4:23. Wasn't that an extra triggered cymbal when you were hitting the ride?

The quest for electronic drums continues. I started drumming in the mid 80’s and I remember when the Simmons pads came out and drummers started using them. I hated them….they sounded fake and felt terrible. 40 years later demo’d a new electronic kit last year…it was better but I still didn’t like the sound or the feel. This DWe looks really promising and I thought maybe they’ve finally cracked it. Nope. While I love that this is wireless and am intrigued by the idea of a hybrid kit, I can’t tell you how much dislike the way those electronic cymbals sound. And in the end when you compare the sounds of the kit in the acoustic mode vs. electronic it’s still no comparison to me. I’m sticking with good old fashioned acoustic drums (well I will if I ever get back into drumming). Now excuse me while I go yell at kids to get off my lawn. 😉

Surely those mesh heads are going to chew up the bearing edges on those shells?! 😬

The attack on those drums when played acoustically is different. Don't know if it's the board and how it's eq'd....or possibly even a thicker shell with a sharper bearing edge for more sensitivity. But, these drums have a sharper attack.

Amazing and innovative technology by DW for me personally though the sound of the acoustic is still superior. my E kit stays at home so keeping it quieter is a big deal.

I can't help but think that while this is really a cool concept, I'm not sure how often someone would actually go back and forth between an acoustic setup to an electric one. 70 minutes can probably be brought down to 45 with some practice and maybe a tuner, but still how often are you going to want to do that? I wish they'd sell the cymbals, triggers and real sized set of some kind of fake shell for around half price because I'd rather have a real collectors kit and this is a separate option. Even if the fake shells cost another 2k, I'd probably bite on it. Love the wireless setup and the software for the drums as well. Just my thoughts on it. I guess the only problem is it would be hard to make it look as good as this but I'm sure they can pull it off.
