DIY E-Drumset

[russdonruss]

Hey man I'm very very interested in how you made the heads and the trigger platforms inside the shells. I would like to make my own from a Gretsch kit I have just collecting dust, but I will leave the shells full size and convertible back to acoustic by swapping heads and removing the triggers. My idea is a trigger platform that mounts inside on the lug bolts for 4 of the lugs, a vibration isolation material to mount the trigger plate, and to convert the existing air-hole to a 1/4" jack.

[knjpap]

Dude.... Invest in a new rack.

[CarcPazu]

Do you sometimes get sea-sickness symptoms when you play?

When you step off the platform do you have a "I just touched down with an elevator" feeling? hehe

Since the song has been disable, I can only comment on the visual...

[jordanjcm]

Looks really sturdy. LOL

[SearchInSun]

is this a diy kit you bought or did you go through forums to build this ?

[tikilover812]

wow thats great a drumset that he being fucked and wow i forgot to complment you on how great it sounds

[pdrahdcduk]

you may be clever enough to have converted the kit, however holding it up with springs was a bit of a failure :P and also, the audio has been disabled as an extra failure :P

[Azzbeeter]

FAIL

[Jank143]

LMFAO a clip of you playing drums but audio has been disabled?

FAIL

[manipulators2007]

WOW earthquake proof

[dc8poker]

wtf

[Triptweeze]

I came to listen, and I was greeted with a Notice under your video "This video contains an audio track that has not been authorized by WMG. The audio has been disabled. More about copyright"

Really weird

[jonutarr]

wtf? are you having sex with that thing?

[arnoldstwin36]

u playin on a trampoline or what dude?

[skeptikal94]

lmao

[acebrimshore]

I want a DIY video of the how to make a anti subsonic noise platform dude.......

I WANT TO JUMP ON IT ..... LIKE IM ON THE MOON...

Hell Yeah

Acey Brimshore ..

[lukauskis]

yeah :D

[jhonrox]

i couldnt help but laughing at the tipping and almost falling.. but its cool!

[sirAbe]

what is the song???

[Marvson]

Nice stickwork! I like how the kit rocks to the music- would make a great visual effect for a live performance!

Keep on rockin' :-)

[e797979]

good drummin man, your diy e-drumset is funny, it has a personal groove when you play and the entire racks moves, anyway nice work!

[Mickemacken]

Rock ´n roll! :) Nice!

[reezlaw]

He EXPLAINED he's using a special platform to suppress noise. You spent thousands on a kit he was able to build himself, proud? And still, when you use the kick you'll make noise on the floor, he won't. Seems like a good idea to me...

[breetsickle]

haha, it looks as if that thing is about to tip, but nice job.

btw, really nice monitor :)

[lgreenstien]

earthquake

[ALXPD]

What size Apple Cinema display is that?

[stratocaster539]

nice work.interesting rack system.

[zachbayard]

haha the drums are shakin like crazy, good job though

[phattenors]

Cool video dude. I've been searching all over Youtube and the web for Toontrack drum sample demonstrations 'cause I'm looking to use that for my own DIY acoustic-to-electric conversion. Good stuff!

[HirnW]

Yeah Toontzrack is awesome. I'd never go back anywhere else. Unfortunately you can't here those sample very well under the oasis tune, but check out their website, that's pretty mouch how it sounds.

[gn86]

how did you build the anti-subsonic-noise platform..? are there any guides somewhere how to do it?

[frais]

it hypotize me! jaja

[89Machoman89]

Wow...you're cool! XD

[dosagemeXXX]

did you build the drumset your self why does it say diy e-drumset?

[Pur3p0w3r06]

DIY means Do It Yourself...? E-Drumset means Electronic Set...?

[dosagemeXXX]

So he built the thing him self? cuz it looks like any other E-Drum set. Idk I WAS HOPING TO FIND A WAY TO BUILD MY OWN E-DRUM SET

[Lieutenantsexmachine]

Sounds nice. But I don't realy understand the bouncing subsonic thing?

What song is this by the way?

Great work

[neoqix]

The song is "Part of the Cueue" by Oasis. It's main melody is from "Golden Brown" by The Stranglers. Nice track.

[dnbrainwash]

ur edrum sounds great, I just bought a td-3kw, my very first one ;p

Love the bouncing xD

[mursunlaja]

yeah ;D looks like your Rack is gonna fly away from the window hehe

[sgtpepper1138]

nice, how does it feel compared to a vdrum kit?

[neonfilm]

I can't say for sure, cause I have only tried one in the shop. But I'd say it feels absolutely the same, except I have problems getting the rims to work. Sometimes they won't respond (All my drums have rims enabled). Will have to figure it out someday

[rockexpert]

@neonfilm Cake pan get 1 a inch smaller than the drums don't be afraid 2 research

[tak22thegoat]

ik that i own one. but im talking about the noise cancelling platform

[trevorhatch]

lol he's playing during an earthquake. haha

[Phurya]

wow...it sound nice,and it looks really good...thats quite a nice job....and the drumset shaking makes it get into the music,lol.

[neonfilm]

Thank's!

[cdahl7]

Cool vid and drums

[tak22thegoat]

how do you build this noise cancelling platform? or where can you buy one?

[stratocaster539]

How did you construct the platform?

[neonfilm]

9 foam cubes and a very heavy pressboard plate on top.

[yellowhornet]

are you playing your kit on top of a matress?

[neonfilm]

Read the description. It's a anti-subsonic-noise platform!

[higordepadua]

Hi Dude! Nice eDrumkit!

I'm building one too, so the mine will be like a Roland's PD-120. How did you build the shell, rim ?. What kind of drumhead are you using ? Is there some site or forum teaching how to build a edrum's pad ? I always visit the edrum[dot]for[dot]free[dot]fr. Do you know others? Thanks

[neonfilm]

Hi

I wrote a whole article about the process. Unfortunately it's in German. If you can read it I'll post it somewhere.

I sawed all the Toms of my Basix set in 2 parts, painted them and added the electronics. The heads are Roland meshes.

Some good sites in English:

derksens[dot]com/Beatnik_mirro­r[dot]htm (The Best!!!)

mikemx3000[dot]tripod[dot]com

vdrums[dot]com

drummerforum[dot]de (The Best Forum but in German)

Good luck!

[dariosmit]

heeeee butr drums can not shaked this not good.Sorry my englich is poor

[dariosmit]

why your drum is so shaked???

[neonfilm]

Because it ROCKS! *lol*

[sPiNcH]

i would suggest, that you put the bassdrum to the wall, so you can screw this bar of the e drumset higher..and there is no more shaking

[neonfilm]

I don't understand. Why would putting the bar higher help anything? Also I cannot put the basedrum against the wall because the drumset has to be isolated from wall or floor. That's the whole idea about the noise canceling thing.

[friedrichsacher]

Shake the E-Drumset! Oh yeah! xD xD

[SuperPussMusic]

Nice to see some ingenuity here. Great drumming too. I'm curious about your DIY methods. I have a TD12 I'm keen to experiment with adding some extras to :-)

The shaking of the kit would look WAY cool as part of a video clip to an original song too!

[neonfilm]

Thanks! Great to get some response. drummerforum de is a great site to get DYI input. Unfortunately it's in German. You should also check out derksens com

There are many more. Greetings, Seb

[joeyzl]

haha  yeah =)

I like the shakin...

[iam7805]

Nice! The shaking is pretty funny though. ;)
