Man, I'm so getting this. I really want to be a drummer but don't have room for an acoustic kit. It's almost like they made this just for me :D Thanks yamaha! I can program it to EZDrummer and it will feel just like a real drum kit
If iwant to record my session with the sounds of Superior Drummer on pc and for example the tom of yamaha sounds as the hit hat on the vst.......it's possible to change the midi note in to the yamaha ?
Un da DD65 ein bin ein Berliner vas is das und der vasser ich donner und blitzen. Got in himmel. Schwein fleishe und der gutten ze achtung. Handi hoch das bangen mit de DD65. Aufwiedersehen
If your a musician, of course nothing sounds better than a acoustic drums. This drums will not replace the real thing. So dont discourage someone to buy this and practice at home. I love the idea of being small, convenient, and almost close enough to a real drum especially at my apartment. So dont listen to this "professionals" buy it and practice, practice!!
I am a total beginner, and yet this piece didn't satisfy my modest needs.
The problem is that if you hit one pad too hard, a nearby pad could make a sound too. If you hit two pads simultaneosly, it could happen that one of the pads doesn't make a sound.
This behaviour is also described in the manual, chapter Setting the Pad Sensitivity (page 18) and in my honest opinion makes the drum set pretty useless, also for beginners.
@HaTeCrEw93 I dunno if this will answer your question but if you use the custom kit option by clicking the "ASSIGN" button and pressing the hi-hat pedal and then you will have numbers come up on your mini screen, these are numberes of drum sounds. You should now find the bass drum sounds, you can listen to the sound of the drum sound or find it via your manual that came with the dd-65, Once you are done assigning all pads, your custom set should be custom set 1 and should be set to your liking.
i'm going to buy these,i want some info,can someone tell me if it's as easy as the acoustic drums to play? i mean if you are used to a normal drum set will it be the same?
i suggest for a beginner like you to buy a real drumset first, in a real drumset you could feel and control how hard or soft you hit the drum, in that way your pulse will improve. but what i liked about dd 65 it has diiferent sound effects, volume control and headphone when i dont want to make noise with my neighbors.
@RVanAs Just got one to do just that. Though I'm using Session Drummer 2 and N.I. Pop drums through E-mu 1616 cardbus through texas instruments Cardbus to pci card on desktop PC.
Honestly tempted to get one. But the fact that the pads are rather small make me feel a player would have a tendency to miss the pad. Any experience players can comment on this?
I turned the pedals upside down and duct taped them to a large piece of cardboard. Now they stay in place and I can play the bass drum much more consistently.
hello,i was wondering if you could plug in a song by linkin park or slipknot or any band you like into your headphones, mute the drums in it and play to it.THX
You can't just mute out the drums on a song, you'd need a special playalong version that was recorded without a drum track. However, when you mix in the music with the volume turned down just a tiny bit so that the drum kit is a little louder, all you will hear is your own drumming unless you miss a beat. And if you do, you will immediately notice. So to learn a song it's actually better to drum to a version with a drum track in it, so you will notice when you're makng a mistake.
Unless the drum kit comes with a song by one of those bands (which I know it doesn't) you can not. You'd need to have the master tracks of the song to mute just the drums.
hmm...Then it's is worth. BUT if it's more expensive than a Acoustic Drum, then u should get the acoustic drum.
Anw, i suggest you bring ALL ur money and just rounding at the mall or music centre. Then, if u have enough money and want to get that drum, then go ahead..
haha...OH MAN, i wish i'm a drummer but i'm a guitarist...Anw, you can do research before you get ur drum..And dont get drum early just bcoz u're bored or whatsoever, do research first. Test the drum first then get them. And if u have enough money, get a headphone..
oh, this looks so much more fun as i thought it would be. for me it's to late, as i have just have bought a electronic drumkit allready, but to be honest, this does not even looks half bad, and have much more sounds :-) the only advantage my roland hd-1 has is that the setup of the pads comes closer to a real drumkit. still, i never expeted this to be so much fun :-) thanks for posting !
i was wondering where is connected in the output cause it sounds really good different than others videos where is only the sound of the dd 65 How can i make it sound like this?
thanks, i finally found the site here. I juz bought one DD65, it comes with a adaptor, hi hat n bass pedal, n drumsticks, it's worth buying, but I don't hv a stand fof the instrument. May I noe is there a standard size stand for the drum set? or there are many sizes, pls advice. Thank You!
Does anyone know if the the footswitch inputs are the same? I tried plugging a momentary switch in to each pedal input. The hihat worked but not the bass drum. The bass drum does work with the pedal that came with the unit.
I was also wondering if anyone has tried the Alesis DM5ProHHPedal for either the hihat or bass drum?
Yamaha offers optional material to replace them: a "kick pad" (ref KP65) enabling you to use a classic pedal (you have to provide it!) for the bass drum and a hi-hat pedal (ref HH65)
do u have to connect them through a laptop/pc or through an amp/mixer to sound like that ? because i really don't think they sound anything like that if they aren't plugged in somewhere.. :)

this peice of shit is not enough spending the money for when u can buy a electronic set and have more of modern sound not a fuckin techno drum nonsense its sounds like SHIT!!!!!!!!!!!! if u wanna like the cure of any other techno inspired band go out and buy this or save yourself the trouble people and stay in your house and refuse to buy this peice of shit !!!!!!!!
yes u can take it like that .If u want drums that sound like they are from the 1980s and fils that sound like a 80s boy jorge band .Then go out and buy the peice of shit.
Great demo. I just bought the DD-65 and am pretty impressed with it. The kick drum foot pad doesn't seem very sensitive/responsive though. I have to stomp pretty hard to get it to work. Just wondering if this is normal.
Well hmmmm its not suposed to be have you tried cleaning the pad and underneath it some times if theres bits in there it wonk work as well if it still dosent work try getting the people you bought it off to try and swap the pedal fro another
I contacted yamaha about the midi issue,this is the reply i got from them:
Regarding your inquiry, it is the specification of the DD-65 that the pedal
does not influence the MIDI signal. The MIDI transmission note of each pad can be set in the FUNCTION settings. However, pad 2 is exception to the MIDI transmission note setting function when employing pedal 2. As its specification, Pedal 2 does not work with MIDI transfer. continues......
You can also buy the optional KP-65 kick pad which is a vertical pad on a stand played with a normal kick pedal. You can play it with a double kick pedal.
I also want to add that the sound through a PA/line-out is very different and much richer than with the onboard speakers. The sounds are really good and you can use the kit for almost anything.
Question, though... Is the sound of the DD-65 louder enough this time? The DD-55c has very low sounds even at max unless it's connected to a stereo...
I was planning to get a Roland V-Stage Series Drum Kit, but then again, I can easily bring the DD-65 anywhere for jamming sessions with my friends.
no, actually, they're really reliable. i have one and i thinks its really loud, very portable, extremely versatile and great fun to have. also its great to learn or play the drums whenever. but if you already have a dd-55c then i would not reccomend it because it its not really any different at all. they're both great drum sets.

could do for it. Sorry for the inconvenience caused by this matter.

As edwardratboy i wouldn't change a dd-55c for a dd-65, they are similar.

can you get a double bass for this?

Sure,you can create 3 custom kits and assign whatever sound you want to any of the pads or the pedals.

You can also buy the optional KP-65 kick pad which is a vertical pad on a stand played with a normal kick pedal. You can play it with a double kick pedal.

I got one for my son, i'm a drummer and i can say that's it's a a good buy for the money.
The sounds are goos and the sensivity of the pads is quite good, The pedals are not bad and the internal speakers do a good job.
All in all it's a good portable drum kit that can be used also for it's sound effects.
It's got a line in and a line out and also has midi capability.
Hope that helps

I also want to add that the sound through a PA/line-out is very different and much richer than with the onboard speakers. The sounds are really good and you can use the kit for almost anything.

k00wl.
Question, though... Is the sound of the DD-65 louder enough this time? The DD-55c has very low sounds even at max unless it's connected to a stereo...
I was planning to get a Roland V-Stage Series Drum Kit, but then again, I can easily bring the DD-65 anywhere for jamming sessions with my friends.
Recommendations or suggestions, anyone?

no, actually, they're really reliable. i have one and i thinks its really loud, very portable, extremely versatile and great fun to have. also its great to learn or play the drums whenever. but if you already have a dd-55c then i would not reccomend it because it its not really any different at all. they're both great drum sets.
