ION Drum rocker with Alesis DM5 drum cover of Wizards of Winter - full version

Ion drum rocker with Alesis DM5 "brain" . Using preset 00 on the DM5. Extra cymbal is from an Alesis pro kit off of ebay. Very fun to play. Not trying to play it perfectly...(as if I could LOL) This video is for educational / critique. This is my version of drumming. I really enjoy the ending to this piece. Feel free to comment. or ask about my setup.
watch in HQ to better hear the DM5.

i wanted to buy this for rock band on my birthday and i also would like to play real drums how do i do this tho i buy the brain to play but what do i plug that in to to make the sound i need anwsers plz thank you

[BacardeSan]

Tony the brain (alesis dm5) makes the sound. You need to amplify it or use headphones. I use an electronic mixer to combine the drum sounds with my mp3 player and then amplify it . I can also just plug headphones into my mixer to hear both the music and my playing.

ok thanks a lot and to amplify it with out the head phones could i use a guitar amp

[BacardeSan]

you can. depending on your amp quality it may or may not sound good. Most guitar amps dont support the full range...but they are cheaper than amps built for drums...I use a guitar amp sometimes but its only 15 watts and thats pretty pitiful..lol

could you tell me who originaly plays this? and im also interested on the drum i want to buy my brother some drums like this how much did you pay for everything like drums dm5 and extrra hi hat in total? thanks

[BacardeSan]

Hi,

The music is from Trans Siberian Orchestra. The ION drum set was about $280, The DM5 was about 225 on ebay, the Hi-hat was another 40 dollars or so on ebay. The kick pedal and pad combo was I think about $70. If you shop on ebay things are less expensive..sometimes..

Thanks for viewing.!!
