Today I unbox and setup the efnote 5 drum kit. This is my first attempt at getting to play it or and efnote kit. This is my first impression and thoughts on the kit and how it feels and plays. Thanks for watching!

Can you easily add it to the existing mount or do you need a new mount? Thanks in advance
@Bearvswolf5 ай бұрын
The mount that comes with these only holds one tom. I believe you need a new post mount to add a tom. Or some other solution (via a cymbal arm clamp or something).
@phillipchan91255 ай бұрын
@@Bearvswolf Yes that is correct. You need to buy a mount that clamps onto the ride cymbol stand. Then you can add the second rack tom.

Great review! What size is the rug that the Efnote 5 is on? Do all of the cymbals stands and drums fit on it? I am considering this kit and not sure it will fit my space.
@Bearvswolf Жыл бұрын
Thank you🤘 It is 5’ round. One of the ride cymbal feet is right at the edge. And one of the throne feet is off at the back. They make a 6’ round version as well. I thought that would be too big. I got it through target.

Great video Bear! Is there another kit that comes close to this one in terms of price, sounds, appearance?
@Bearvswolf5 ай бұрын
Thank you🤘 I think in terms of appearance the efnote kits are pretty competitive being full shells in the $2700 range (mine was used around $2k.) The module is very simple but practical. Not a ton of kits but very natural sounds and great performance. In a similar roland kit you would get a more advanced module with probably many more sounds. But the kit would be half shells and just black. For me, it was the blend of the kit looking 10/10 with a simple module I can connect to a computer. That way I can access any sounds I want via SSD, addictive drums etc. And then record them. Just depends what you want out of the set.

Beleive you can rock an alternative snare (eg Roland) with this kit/module, if you wanted I believe only the hihat has a proprietary connector preventing any alternative Obviously an extra snare would be an extra cost , but worth noting 😊
