Hi, my do it yourself edrum kit works!
I built the Base, Snare, Toms and Ride myself. The Rack, Crashes and Hihat are Roland, as well as the Module (TD-3). The Kit is connected to a MacPro which runs a Toontrack Custom&Vintage library through GarageBand.
If you wonder why the set is shaking so heavily: It's standing on a diy anti-subsonic-noise platform that cancels the sounds for my neighbours.

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

  • 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

  • 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.

  • Thank's!

  • How did you construct the platform?

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

  • 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.

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

  • Dude.... Invest in a new rack.

  • 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...

  • Looks really sturdy.  LOL

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

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

  • 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

  • FAIL

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

    FAIL
