I have the same kit and i play all kinds of music from punk to jazz and I have no problems with the bass picking up the sound when I play fast! The kits not bad for a beginner but if you want something more professional I would recommend a Roland.
@STF1717 if you want to add more, i think you would have to get a whole new brain (control panel) because there just arent enough inputs in the stock brain. you can look into it more but keep in mind that brains are very expensive so i think dishing out that cash on a cheaper roland kit because those are better quality and i think that quality would be more perfered over quantity especially because of roland kits having better sounds and a more realistic bounce than this simmons kit, and i know
@STF1717 that because i personally own this kit and feel like the bounce and feel is very dead. anyways i hope this helped and good luck with upgrading your kit
THANK YOU FOR THIS VIDEO...I sneaked in the attic to look at presents and found this drum kit with my name on it...thanks to you now i know its a decent kit...i'll have fun on christmas...:)
well this sucks i love using double bass on my acoustic, but i'm moved to university and can't bring my kit with me but i just found out that my mom bought me a electric set for university but i'm not suppose to know till then i think its nice she did that but i need double bass, now what to do
Good vid but the bass is lagging and has low volume cuz that amp isn't for drums. I talked to a guitar center worker and he told me about this.... For a amp that will work properly with this set ur gonna have to spend $200 on a amp.
You can get this set for $299 without paying tax or shipping delivered to your house brand new. I think it's guitarcenter. com. You just have to buy a kick pedal, sticks, and have headphones or an amp!
@socrdude123 yes I got it on sale for $299 at guitar center...they may still have an online deal for the same...I also had to purchase a kick pedal for about $35...and if you don't have an amp, you can use headphones
@Remember2mro Hey man, i noticed you you were looking at this model. Do you plan on getting it? I actually have the SD7PK. Im selling it and I really want to find a buyer. Its in great condition. If your interested please email me. It comes with everything. theconsumer1@gmail.com
PLEASE READ. Guys this isn't a scam at all. I have this same exact kit but with 3 cymbals and a hi hat. Plus a Yamaha Kick pad i bought. Im selling everything with the drums. (including amp and everything) If your interested please email at theconsumer1@gmail.com
i have been playing on my set and the wires inside the pad keep coming undone. its the second one first the snare then the bass. splicing some wires ayee.
@BethLorraine96 Yeah leave you coward girl... You maricon i will fuck your ass mother fucka.. You no crazy enough to mess wit me men oyste maricon de pinga ... Yo soy alergico a las plumas maricon...
@BethLorraine96 I could tell you were using Google Translate cause that s not the way of speaking... well, in fact you are speaking like a nerd girl would talk... I do know about drums more than you do... You are tha son of a Bitch here you 14 year old baby..
hopefully this helps you out. it is definetly the pad.i have a simmons also and mine has the same thing and sometimes it dosent pick up the sound. the pad is big but if the zone is small and it has to be really close together.i mean the acctually heads hitting the bass pad have to be close. i would recomend getting dif pad because it is better and has better bounce and isnt so noisey but thats all
i have this kit. and the thing about the double hits on the bass: i think its just your bass pedal. because i have a pdp bass pedal and i can do doubles all day.
i see you can not do double hits with the bass drum trigger. is it the trigger or the module which has the problem? did you do anything to solve that problem? coz i am playing double hits and it kinda suck when i cant do that in this kit. thnx
@megaluisdeth I think it just has a MIDI output like the sd5k, but that is compatible with a lot of usb's and computers and recording stuff. hope this helped, subscribe if you havent already!
@grim0212 To be honest im not sure if you can hook it into your PC or laptop.. there is no usb port like you said but there could be some weird conversion cable or something. let me know what you find out, and subscribe if you havent already!
@HumbleTelescopes yes there is one, but it requires a converter such as the one that allows you to plug headphones into an amp or something to that effect
@king8of5drums sometimes, it has little screw type things on the bottom that can be put into the floor or carpet if you have your kit in a semi temporary setup.
I mean everyone says there so cheap but ive been playing it for a year and everything still works you have to remember its an electric set you cant pound on it
att super fucking nerds hold up............simm 5 dick shit crap set. i farted. or was that the snare? o my god lol. play that poop set, soooo one thing i don't like is i get shit on my socks when I play without my shoes. i would deff not invest in a rubber set. fuck the fam and the neib. GET A REAL DRUM SET. TAMA
@socrdude123 It seems as if the hi-hat is kind of raised too much...Any problems with that? Is it adjustable? I'm thinking about purchasing this for the holidays.
@dustin102432 i think its very likely, if u go to music and arts or your local music store its likely they have them in stock, so u could see there. if not, online often has good BF deals
@chadlee125 yes the 7k pad works with the 5k. when my 5k pad broke (i talk about it in comments i believe, dont quote me) Simmons sent me a replacement and it was actually the 7k pedal! which is bigger and supports a DB pedal:) hope this helps.
I ordered the same kit and got Gold Coverage.Ive sent my kit back one time.There was a malfunction on the kits I ordered last Winter.Simmons wont return my calls or emails.The kick drum pad wont work.What do you suggest?Ive emailed them,called every company i know,left voicemails,and they still wont send me my drum or reply.Your review said don't get frustrated,THEY WILL REPLACE IT.I need them to.Ive wasted time and money.WHat do you suggest?
@purityistheway u can go on ebay and and buy a kick drum. i just bought a simmons snare pad for this kit and they are VERY cheap. they price for 40 to 80 dollars at the least.
i have had this kit for about 5 months,when i got it used,i paid 220 for it,the sounds are ok,the cymbals are weak,the ride is bad,hard to hear and the bass problem you described is right, i found a lot of the sounds cool,the ability to have custom kits is great,over all i think its about a 5 out of 10 for me,i have played for a long time,25 years,these are ok for a practice or maybe scratch track recording,but i would never consider using them as a performance kit,thanks for the review
I'm so happy you had this posted. Your description of the lagging bass drum discouraged me so I'll keep looking. I'm also hoping for some sort of brain that can possibly sequence. Anyway, much appreciated!
I'm lucky I have my own bass pedal cause of my dad and his old acoustic drum kit he has.
