Roland HD1 V Drum demo - Nevada Music UK

[williamshope04]

Hi im hope!! please check my drumming at my channel :-)

[unduswaffel]

@555GB Through the MIDI. Just get a sampling software and connect your PC/MAC to the set. Then set it. Don't ask me how cause i really do not know. But i'm sure about this. And you can get other kits man. I don't know what you're using, but you can get other kits for sure. (Garageband)

[unduswaffel]

@555GB Actually, you can.

[milad19]

annoying snare sound

[picure]

A cool practice kit, but almost impossible to do steady 16th/32nd note patterns on bass pedal.

[unduswaffel]

@picure Exactly. It makes it impossible to do almost anything!! And people, don't flame me. i play this like twice a week at my drums school.

[burubura]

damn man after 1:26..wow!

[Musictwins67]

hey can u plug it into a stereo and then into 2 speakers or just into speakers cause i dont want to buy an amp?

[jeysen8]

how would you record on this kit? is it possible with the midi out?

[izizrod]

plese answr do i need an amp for this

[imdrumzer]

@izizrod yes or headphones

[oOResidentEvil]

does it have a MP3 USB port??

[JopeEntertainment]

@oOResidentEvil no

[xdiputsm]

What are the dimensions of the kit more or less? How much space do you need to play comfortably? I have limited space in my room

[burubura]

what devices we need for output????

[XpEAnUTBuTtERsUckSX]

@burubura £500 which is 764.4 US

[burubura]

@XpEAnUTBuTtERsUckSX what the fuck r u replying?????

[XpEAnUTBuTtERsUckSX]

@burubura wrong guy lol soz

[PepperRoni20]

WOW this sounds SO much better then the Alesis DM6, how much does it cost?

[TheSage666]

midi output on these?

[yousurfer2]

can you trigger your own samples via midi / usb on a laptop

[PataNeagra]

Bravo bah ... :X nota 10 cu * :) faine tobe..bun percutionist ...

[olaingebriktdoennem]

As you guys know, the HD-1 has no customizable drum kit, so im stuck with the 2 (Kit 1 and 2), therefore, having the HD-1 in over 2 years, limits me alot.

So therefore i ask, is there any kind of over computer ''modules'' thats free or pretty cheap, im thinking about things like EZdrummer (but thats expensive), that lets me customise my own kit, pad by pad.

Looking forwards for any answer!

-Oliver

[unduswaffel]

@olaingebriktdoennem If you have a mac, then i think Garageband?

[TomBurnsVideos]

In answer to the Midi out question... Midi out allows you to play an external sound module with your HD1. This is where the fun begins for you the drummer, you now can control... THE WORLD. For instance, try layering a string patch on an external module with your ride cymbal. Or maybe, you might want to use a snare sound on an external sampler instead of, or layered with the HD1. Experiment. For more ideas, check out my Roland V-drum videos on YouTube. EnjoyTom Burns.

[xdiputsm]

Is there a usb slot to connect it to a computer? I see 5 buttons, are these all the drum samples you can use?

[fing3rbang]

I have a choice between this and the DTXplorer by Yamaha, by your experience which would you say is a better buy?

[pedestrianharmright]

@fing3rbang

I used to have a DTXplorer, the drum module is complicated to use and theres too many pointless drums and its big and hefty

buy this drum set, its cheap, small, good looking, straight to the point, able to customize drum sounds if you have the know how

roland make better drums in my opinion, hope this helped

[elmolynneth]

Can i ask something...why does my HD1 hi-hat sounds like muted?....how can i record a quality sounds on my laptop?...pls help me Sir......thanks

[SansaApple]

its so wiggly but yet its roland v drums quality

[SansaApple]

its all wiggly

[ssdaven]

Question..

I see that the HD-1 Lite has a MIDI-Out port.. just to make sure I understand - does that mean I can customize the sample on each piece of the kit?

[NevadaMusicUK]

The midi out port allows you to trigger sounds in an external device like a computer with drum sound available ( EZ Drummer , BFD etc, Logic 9 etc) or an instrument with a midi input like a keyboard or drum machine. You can't alter the inbuilt sounds via midi.

It makes a great trigger kit though....

[ssdaven]

I think I understand your response. Let us speak in simple terms:

-The MIDI out port allows you to assign different sounds to each piece of the kit so that you can hear sounds other than the default ones when you hit them.

Is that correct?

[ssdaven]

Essentially, I'm asking all of this because I am confused at 1:50 into the video. I see he uses the variation of Kit 3 and it has a very unique sound. Is this just the built in sounds of the kit?

[NevadaMusicUK]

Everything in the video came from the HD1. The only thing is that the audio is compressed a bit by the camcorder so it sounds a bit more "squashed" than it would really be. The midi out is essentially a data port and just outputs data rather than audio and is only an output, not an input.

sorry if i confused things

xx

[Bradaskyus]

if your looking to buy this drums, I would say don't. I've played on these for a while now and they sound nothing alike drums.

They aren't that customizable either. One of the most expensive types, and they aren't as good.

[MegaMad999]

hi guys how can i get some loops for drumming or playing on a loop....plz help me..

[gibson00000000000000]

personally, i think the alesis dm5 pro with surge cymbals is better(same price, more sounds), but this set is awesome, i tried at my local music shop

[k0staZ]

are alesis pads plastic? i mean when u hit them u fell like hitting a desk>?

[gibson00000000000000]

they're mylar, and they produce some acoustic sound, but it's still better anyway

[NevadaMusicUK]

There not as bouncy as the Roland pads , but they do the job. A little heavier feel and a bit noisier.

[Trian1993]

I am a guitarist but think I need one of those... :D

[Account091027]

the kit could benefit from a bit of "tweakability". the pads are really good for the price, but the sampler sucks. for practice, however, it's enough.

[intrepgun]

@gavrisr the internet expects your masterful demo of the kit in 24 hours.

[intrepgun]

i'm glad you got that it was purely sarcasm. and yeah, i think the guy demonstrated the sounds of the kit fine. did he do every little thing? no. but it was decent enough for most drummers or aspiring drummers to get a sense of the sound and sensitivity for 90% of what they'd be doing. there are other vids anyway, you know?

[ozdrift94]

This kit can be used in some concert or something? i don't wanna be the center of the lol's.

[mhsayers]

millenium mps100 will let you use the high hat as an additional bass

[Secudead]

so does the hd-1

[RobinMoviesOffical]

I dont like the double bass snare.

[RobinMoviesOffical]

EDIT:

Ive heard in real its kinda cool.

[harrisons789]

i have got 1 of these and they ARE great if u are thinkin on getin 1 of these u should u can also get earphones for them and they play little demoes if u hold them down that is the numbers get one : )

[Vartex]

How much are they and where can you get them?

[harrisons789]

they r £500 or $792 u got mine in oxford u probaly would be able to by them in a drum shop or music shop

[SkaterToby13]

how many kits are on there and what do you think I should get those drums or the rocktronic dd502

[DRdrumma]

I'd definetely go for a dd 506 not 502.you get something like 50 kits on the 506,the hd 1 only has a few.Plus its like half the price

[gibson00000000000000]

are there any drumsets that let u use the high hat pedal as an additional bass pedal? if so, which one? please reply

[SteffyTheCat]

This one, Roland HD-1, Has a "Double Bass" setting wich makes both pedals bass pedals xD

[gibson00000000000000]

thanks a lot, i know, but are there any other drumsets that let u use the bouble bass feature too?

[gibson00000000000000]

are there any other electronic drumsets that let u use the high-hat as an additional bass pedal?

[SteffyTheCat]

I don't know.. :S

[davkem]

Yes the HD1 does

[cheung94isalegend]

yeah, its the 2nd preset with the variation button gives you double bass pedal

[thomasedmundrichards]

due to space and neighbour issues i had to sell my accoustic kit and use this to keep my and in - its really good especially the function to enable me to play along to my Ipod

[colosimo99]

would you recommend this amp for a yamaha kit or no?

[Deluxeta]

I'm afraid to spent money on something veeery limited...

[mikosoft]

Limited? For the money you spend on this set you won't even buy a decent acoustic kit. With this you get 10 kits, 6 of them are acoustic. And they sound killer.

[zyklon20]

sweet

[karlfreitag1]

dont get any yamaha shit...rolands way Way WAY better than yamaha at e-drums, by far!!!

[BaNaNaZzZzZ]

Byuin it!

[Deluxeta]

Should I take that or the DTXPlorer? I DO NOT HAVE THE BUDGET FOR A TD-4 OR ANYTHING!

[jcces44]

this

[karlfreitag1]

that... yamaha is crap!!!

[danielfagner]

HEELTOE? I CAN? Sorry i don't speak englis

[jcces44]

you can

[ProFableElement]

Seems like the TD4 would be a better choice. Will the DT-HD1 software work with it?

[NevadaMusicUK]

The software was specifically made for the HD1.

[KillerDrums777]

just one more question.

can u choke the crash cymbal?

[dopeydogdrummer]

the cymbals aren't choke-able, only on td4 upwards...

[KillerDrums777]

ok thx

[musicmaniac1965]

no, to bad it's not chokable. i don't understand why they did not included chokable crash and ride on the HD1, but other than that, for beginners, or pro's that have little space and want a noiceless mechanic design, it really is a proper electronic drumkit. i have played on a acoustic (my nephew's in a drum basement) and ofcourse that's real drumming, but i can't have that in my home. would wake up the neighbours :-P

[musicmaniac1965]

i just love the roland hd-1 :-) it has all the right features, and it truely IS simple to set up. there's even a hidden feature that lets you adjust the sensetivity of all the pads in one go :-)

[TrakePTGR]

ok bout hidden feature sucks n i tell u y... if tune the sensetivity however u like u ll never understand how accurate ur on acoustic drum set n other sets too...thats my opinion :)

[mofemobile]

is the kick ok seeing as its not a pedal hitting a pad (if that even made any sense)?

[KillerDrums777]

can you ad roland spd-s on this?

[NevadaMusicUK]

Yes, you would have to get a mount to keep the SPD-S on, but you can get two stereo 1/4 inch jacks from the SPD-S to a mini stereo jack and it will plug in straight through the HD1 :)

[Sockmetal]

Im considering buying either this kit, the roland td4k or the yamaha dtx explorer.

What would you guys recommend?

And i was wondering if you could add pads or new modules to this kit? thanks for the help!

[lordyugiohgamer]

best vid on Roland HD1 V

[KillerDrums777]

cool

[TheCosmicFrog]

Nice
