Face down - Drum Cover (Ion drumrocker kit)

[bradbayer]

Just saw this kit earlier today...wanted it, but was on the fenceabout buying it. You just sold it dude!

[ColdBloodK]

how do u do the open and close hihat on ion kit?

[mrdilpickkle]

this cover sux ill put one up in a week or too and show u how its done

[Kyonjournalist]

How much did it all cost you for the Drum set? Factoring in the ions, 3 cymbals and the trigger / whatever else you bought

[xKIAxZoMbiE69]

Yo, great cover Mann, soo do u hav a hi-hat pedal at ur left foot? Or it's next to ur bass pedal

[wildside1976]

Keep practicing you seem like a natural!! Maybe a Roland next??

[BBDuster]

hey man this is for your head strong cover the vid changed on me but i like the fact that you did mess up it lets me know that the ion can sound like a real drumset and its not just playing to a song with really good timeing. thanks dude you were alot of help im thinking about geting one. also like everyone says good job man. thanks for giving me some insight on the set

[SuprJohn95]

great cover

[FenderTeleStrat2360]

dude your pretty good! props dawg!

[Imarockmusicfanatic]

CHECK OUT THESE DRUM COVERS!!!!!!!!!!!

[cdahacker]

damn dude freakin beast! I need to work on my triplets though

[Switchzor]

Nice ! Good Job :)

[123element678]

nice job i just dont like the eletric drum set because they just dont sound the same. i just like them cuz u can play with headphones plugged so no one else hears because my parents dont like me playing all the time

[SpeedLimit2382RB]

nice man! I have a question i have the same ion drum kit but i have a rb1 pedal with it will it still work if i use that pedal?

PS: I also have a destroyer pedal.

[DJCrazyBeatz]

nice one :D I like it ^^

[booglebooglebum]

haha the rings around the toms and the snare reminds me of rockband haha.

[AJPhenominal1Styles]

@booglebooglebum Dude, its the Ion Drum Rocker which is the "Advanced" Rock band Kit

[Indydrummer94]

Your playing with your elbow when you hit your snare.

..just throwing that out therree.

[brunolisboa10]

your drumsticks tricks are AWESOME man :O

[diePolizei]

noice bro

[StephenNguyen]

SICK Cover man I'm about to get some ions along with a drum brain for xmas.

[koenieboenie1]

nice drum stick tricks between :D

[theforsakenhorde]

snair is a little to high

[StephenNguyen]

@theforsakenhorde

the snare can never be too low or too high. That's his own adjustment. It's just like writing left handed, some people are just used to it.

[Erarkangel3]

wow. nice m8,, hey u have ROLAND KD-8 V-DRUM KICK PAD? found with drum of Guitar hero? i have drum guitar hero world tour, i want this pedal kick!. ROLAND KD-8 V-DRUM KICK PAD is compactible? thanks.

[ransisua]

Yup. It's compatible.

/watch?v=3mFGAshhXEM

[Xeck220]

dude your pretty good for only playing rockband all you need to do is work on is speed on the hi hat other than that i give you a 10 out of 10 fucking sick

p.s i have been playing drums for about 6 months now ill be putting a cover of panic attack by dream theater up soon

keep up the good work

[Xbox360Freakout]

That Was Just ...... AMAZING !

Perfect Timing and Awsome Playing

[achokingvitcim]

This is sick as hell!

[bouncerboy220]

THAT JUST BLEW MY MIND.

[majkicCFC]

nice one, but at least take to colours off the kit so it doesn't look like a toy heh

PS could a driver/program be used insted of the alesis IO

[ToonKiwi24]

NICE

[isawadeadfrog]

I've heard randomly somewhere that 32 notes can't be played on the cymbals, is this true? Amazing drumming btw

[andrewjelsma]

the opening is eight notes on HH

[DJsnukumz]

Trying not to sound arrogant great playing but you should work on technique a little, pretty much the main thing i see is hand control grip and position you should hold the sticks on the fulcrum where it will bounce so you dont have to pick it back up after you hit(if that makes sense)look it up and you should find a tutorial on that also it helps to not bring the sticks up as much while playing and hold the sticks mainly with your index and thumb for better control thats all sorry that was long

[MetalDrummer7954]

cobus is proud at 0:45!

[beekers011]

Dude your awesome, you should buy a real drum set, you've got some talent

[AksuSk8]

Lol that is a real drum set.

[jniko999]

He's referring to an acoustic kit.

[slapfishbrad]

Does ION work on Guitar Hero as well?

Also, does it support double bass?

[thatasiankid118]

yes but it compresses the chart to 4 drum notes like the normal rock band kit. and yes if you can find the right double bass pedal.

[slapfishbrad]

Thanks, but what do you mean by "right double bass pedal?"

[thatasiankid118]

oh, im not 100 percent sure you can use any double bass pedal for it. you might, im not sure. but i'd probably look for a double bass pedal designed for the dd502 drumset since its really similar or one thats specifically made for the ion

[troybetz]

I know this is an old comment, But any type of bass pedal works with the dd502. ANY.

[thatasiankid118]

ah cool

[infinatedomain]

is there another pedal that can be used other than the roland FD8 pedal? how can you tell what (hihat) pedals are compatible with the ion drum rocker?

 ......or, are you just recommending the roland pedal? the reason why im wondering if there's an alternative, is b/c the roland is a little pricey for me.

please help!!!

[jomama124]

the bass pedal that comes with the ion kit can be used as a hi hat pedal.....also the original rock band pedal can be used as a hi hat pedal, if you have the cord adapter.

[nootenstien13]

ill be getting an ion drumrocker kit for my birthday to use for mainly rock band but of course also a real set so i need a pedal for the hi-hat and you say i can use the original rock band pedal but with a cord adapter. my main question, what kind of adapter?

[jniko999]

I'm pretty sure it's a 1/8" to a 1/4"

[infinatedomain]

Hey, are you using a separate pedal for your hihat? if so, please tell me where you get the pedal, and is it hard to hook up?

[jomama124]

yes.... I am using the roland FD8 hi hat pedal!

[bbox2haejo]

master shawn this is juntae please put some martial arts videos in here

[CrazedRazor]

im a noob so i dont know but is the ion kit actualy an electronic drum kit that can also be used on rock band or is this just modded?

[ShiroiHusky]

it's a rock band controller, built off the foundations of an electronic kit. It can be used as a full kit if you get a proper kick pedal and a brain for it. Out of the box it's only a rock band controller.

[YocoN]

Do you get the Alesis Trigger IO with the ION set or do you have to buy that on its own?

[RandomPinoy09]

You have to buy it separately.

[ShiroiHusky]

jomama124, what foot pedal do you use? is that a destroyer with the d pad or another pedal?

[jomama124]

i use a roland kd8 kick trigger pad... and then my bass pedal is a real pedal.... its a pulse single pro

[DoctorPepR]

Hey im thinking about getting this and im a metal typ person would i be able to hook up a double bass pedal if i had the right parts??

[chriscem]

hahah this aint rock band loser

[ShiroiHusky]

I know this, I was reffering to the fact this controller is, out of the box, a rock band controller, jomama124 has since upgraded it into a proper kit, in order to make these videos.

Note the coloured rings on the pads? Yeah? Now take a look at rock band, see, same colours. I didn't say that this was a rock band video at any point. So don't call me a loser.

[YocoN]

do you use a special module or is everything from the original kit? or are you using a program to make the sounds? probably ordering 'em tomorrow =)

[ShiroiHusky]

"Rockband Ion kit connected to PC via Alesis TRigger IO. Sony Acid Pro recording host w/ Addictive Drums Plug-in."

Aside from that, no mods besides the kick pedal it would seem

[Elisa1840]

Nice Cover :D

[jomama124]

wow,,, thanks man... maybe I will shoot them an email!

[bigmasterjay]

Dude, the people that make that kit should hire you for PR.. Great Work

[cwebb90uk]

wow dude, this is awesome. good job.

[mongekyomoon2]

wow nice vid...the elctric drum set sounds better than most i ever heard...........one question how do u how to incorporate a roll into the hi-hat.....like u did during the sound

[rad1820]

ino how to play this song and at the start doesnt the high hat beat run in semi quavers.... im pretty sure it does... but apart from that it sounds pretty good...

[jomama124]

I didnt play this song ear for ear..... i just kinda interpreted... tyhere were many parts in the way I played that are not ear for ear exact.... but thnkas ofr the advice!

[jomama124]

crap.... i cannot spell today!

[Xtreem813]

What module do you use? I just ordered an Ion and I'm looking into getting a module that doesn't cost a crap load but doesn't sound like crap.

[sirfatalx]

Get the OSP DD-502 MKII

[OSUcks726]

Worst module ever. Get the TD-4 from roland.

[nateislegend]

I beg to differ.

The DD502 is the worst lol.

Go take a listen, it is super cheesy XD

[xXDarkPyro84Xx]

AWESOME DUDE!!! its better than some electonic drumsets ive seen!!!

[FLAstudios]

dude awesome...im about to buy the pro ion set...how are you liking the drum modulator?

[Edvs75]

d man u play awsome and how u flip the drum stick while playing AWSOME

[jomama124]

thx everyone for your comments... sorry if i dont reply personally to each of you, but believe me, they mean a lot!.... i've haven't been jamming on the drums lately, but plan to start up real hardcore in the next week or so!!... so look for more I guess!

[MasterSighlis555]

sounds good. i didnt know the ion sounded that good either, its too late for that.. i already got a dm5 pro and now i just use my ion for rock band.

[SILENToCONCUBINE]

OK. For not playing drums outside of RB... you have some raw, natural, god-given talent. You are simply amazing! You inspire me to want to use my IONS outside of RB. : ) Great job!

[mckennagasmic]

You have, in my opinion, some of the most enjoyable (i can't say "best", since i don't drum and can't judge) drum cover videos on YouTube. Please make more.

[channing321]

dude that's pretty sweet stuff there. i've ordered an ion kit and a roland kd8 along with some other things to put together my own electric drumset. that did look like a really fun song to play to.

[Em4Freak]

you need a better drum kit ; )

[UgotDead123]

wow me and my frend were wanting to start a band for a long time and he told me to get a electrical drum kit but now im just wondering if i can just get the ion drum rocker. and i got one question how to you get the sound out of the drums? is their a speeker or do u have to go into freemode on rb2?

[ABEaglesfan1000]

You can hook it up to an amp im pretty sure, and you can record what your playing, so its definitely worth it. So no, you don't need rb2 to make the sounds, there are preset drum sounds on the drum brain. Thats y im getting em soon =)

[Triksta6]

hehe have you watched the drum cover of this song by Cobus?

i think you have cuz you tried to stick twirl like him in this song lol.

nice job btw.

[Itachy91]

HEY

Don´t look at other good drummers coz you will be one day as good as them but for now just practice and play the drumms as good as here...

Rock on !!! :D

[infinatedomain]

Now that I can see someone use this as electric drum kit, AND do a WONDERFUL job on a song, I WANT ONE!!!!! You rock dude!

[jomama124]

kind words man... thank you!

[SpartanFrenzy]

Can u use the ion kick pedal to do the bass hits?

[jomama124]

yes, but then it would take away from your hi hat foot control

[Aliswiman]

nice, good song, great cover! and i like the stick spinning in there.

[chrisVLee]

can you just freestyle with those like do they plug into your ps3 or xbox?

[jomama124]

yes u can

[dansmusic25]

awesome!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! cover, good work

[jojontyler13]

damn dude ur bad ass ur headstrong was better but jus the little shit like spinnin the stick an stayin in time wit the music thats pretty bad ass keep wit it

[jomama124]

lol thx man

[trizzHHS]

good job, and I like the song, but a bad choice to do a drum cover for cuz no1 can ccompare to cobus, and he already has one xDD

[jomama124]

thx... ur right, cobus is a beast, and i only hope to get as good as him.

[Dsantkd16]
