Jobeky Low Volume Real Feel Cymbals Review
Вставка
- Опубліковано 18 гру 2018
- Every since these cymbals came out, I've gotten quite a few requests to review the Jobeky Low Volume Real Feel cymbals. Everyone loves the idea of a Zildjian L80, but many electronic drummers want to have that type of cymbal, but with a trigger system built in. That's what jobeky has here.
Pros:
Inexpensive compared to rubber cymbals
Looks Cool
Cons:
Louder than rubber cymbals
My Roland cymbals do cymbal swells better and are more accurate

Your videos are comprehensive, well-spoken, paced, and helpful. Thank you.
Thanks so much for this. The video, like your others, is most useful. I've been holding off a LV purchase until now but think I deserve a late Xmas present to myself! Seasonal greeting from the UK. Cheers Chris - one of the people requesting this review!
Wow! Very quite, huge difference!
Merry Christmas!
Very timely review because I was thinking about getting a set of the ride, crash, and hats. Thanks very much!!
Didn’t expect them to be so quiet. Hopefully they send you a whole set to review.. would love to know more about the high hats and ride. So far I’m impressed.
I wouldn't say they are quiet, but not quite at bad as I feared
Do they have a china cymbal?
Jordan yeah it would
@@blackrose201 Yes they do
The ride and hi hat work just like their Roland counterparts... except they look better 😂
I've got a 14" single piece hat and 20" LV ride.
Nice, I'd really like to try it. The ride and hi-hats too.
I have a full set of the Jobecky Dark Bronze. Also it advertises as "no plastic boxes" but all came with a plastic box. I wrote to Jobecky about it and all they had to say was "Don't worry, the plastic boxes won't break.". I'm pretty pleased with the performance. I got 6 cymbals including a Splash, a TWO piece Hi-Hat and a 20" Ride. The looks are great!
what setting are you using mate for your ride, im not sure what to set my pad as and i have the 18 inch ride
Nice man. This looks cool. Didn't seem louder. Just a different frequency. I'd like to see u review a whole set
Great video. Jobeky sent me a couple of their brilliance series real feels and I love them and had similar results using an Alesis Crimson module.
Great! I didn't get a chance to try these with alesis so good to hear
Hi! i bought some of these cymbals! I put rubber tips on one of my Drumstick pair when i want to be quiet. It’s working very well! I put some big washer on bottom to add some weight. I really love the feel. Like Justin said, thé cymbal spinning a lot and i would love to have a 360 edge triggering.
Nice review, and I am impressed so far. Jobeky, if you are listening, send Justin a complete set to put to the test. Would love to hear a session jam with all of your entire lineup.
Good video, Im in the process of doing my cymbals although I gonna just use paizo or however you say it.way smaller footprint. BTW great video. Might you make a video on Drumlite and maybe possibly on more ways to get our kits looking more acoustic. Im with you ...MAKE MY DRUMS BIGGER THAN 8"!!!! LOL
Impressive you and the cymbal
A great way to stop the cymbal rotation is an Aquarian Cymbal Spring I used these with a Visu-lite (not sure of the spelling) electronic China cymbal back in the day to stop the rotation and it worked great.
Vdrummer. I'm thinking of using the Pintech 10" cymbals. Do you recommend them?
@@gregwilliams2764 I never used anything but the Vistulite china, had to modify the cymbal for less noise (added a heavy mouse to lower the strike volume). It was a china so I wasn't doing swells or any fine cymbal work on it I was only bashing it. It did trigger well and served it purpose. I haven't had that cymbal in probably 6 years. I am not a very good person to ask for that reason. Visulite I think was still there own company when I bought it.
Jobeky seem a very cool little company - they are giving drummers what they ask for without much BS. Their full kits are surprisingly affordable compared to to some of the other 'real look and feel' brands. I'm just an amateur who uses a cheap e-kit for recording but I must admit I'm kind of surprised that some of this gear is within my reach.
Ay thanks man for this review.
Aquarian cymbal springs work great to stop rotation.
Hey Justin, I bought a set of jobeky cymbals and at first the contact was way too loud cause I play it through my PA system with my band. I almost got rid of it until I added cymbal mutes to dampen the contact. Huge difference. It was floppy at first so I zip tied it through the holes. Also use a Aquarian cymbal spring to prevent spinning.
Hey bud good to see you finally got around to trying something like this , c mon lol they feel much better than rubber don't they lol ????👍
Hey Justin, nice work as usual.
But I really can't dig the rubber ones...
Can you do a review of a L80 with the Stealth trigger?
I already try 3 different ways to trigger my L80 set. Now I was wondering if the Stealth system is a good way.
Thanks in advance!
I love my set of Jobeky LV cymbals. One thing though, how do you get it from rotating?
You could probably jury rig a "spin limiter" by threading wire through 2 holes positioned side by side and anchoring the other end to the holder end of the stand.
Please do a full review of the bundle pack, crash, hi hat, and ride.
Hey Justin, I have a 14,16 inch crash , a10 inch splash and the 18 inch China. So far I really dig them. If you spend the time to dial in the settings, you can get the triggering pretty much equal to a Roland cymbal imo. I do agree that the biggest downside is the lack of a rotation stopper, which I’ll most likely diy a fix for. Cheers
I have a question about your cymbals. Does any of them have a bell zone if so which one? I'm having s hard time on their website. Thanks.
Okay, so I'm running Arborea LV Cymbals with my Cymbal Triggers ON THE CYMBAL STAND before the Articulating Arm and mounted directly on there with the two screw holes using clip ties to secure it. I am NOT getting ANY double triggering, or false triggers, or ghost notes other than what I'm playing through my Module. The vibration from my cymbal strikes are more than enough to transfer even the dynamics to the Module easily. This is better than the Zildjian Gen16 for my setup because not only can I play my LV Cymbals with ease but I can also trigger my MIDI notes if recording OR I can MUTE my cymbals with Cymbal Mutes, use the Headphones for more quiet triggered practice, etc... It's very versatile and you do NOT need to mount your Cymbal Triggers on the Cymbal to make them work GREAT like mine! Also I DO mount my Hi Hat Bottom Cymbal ONLY with a Trigger and I DO take it off from time to time for the most natural play with my Electronic Drums and Module BUT I also use the Alesis Pro X Hi Hat Controller WITH my LV Cymbals by putting the Hi Hat Controller on the Bottom Mount directly on the Cup and then the Spring. On top of the Spring I put my Mounting Plate and Felt and Bottom Cymbal, and use the Clutch as ususal. This works GREAT and has EXCELLENT TRIGGERING and sounds! Very ultra sensitive and fun to play with the Spring Assisted REAL CYMBALS! No mutes here, just bottom trigger and custom controller!
your l80 cymbal test killed my soul
Hello Justin, I’m contemplating getting the China 18 inch in silver to play with my td50, I think for the price is a good buy, I was going to buy the atv China but it is almost ridiculous to pay $450 for a cymbal, I got the 10 inch splash from Atv and I think is just ok, do not like the fact that they spin too much as well. For electronic drums having the feature is not very useful. Anyway great review as usual thanks
Hi.all the lights weights.low noise of sounds, cymbals ...super .great products of the years.....Asia 's , are hunger for it.china' s cymbals too.you are so good.great things .to share with......thanks...
Can you do a video on drumsticks - how are those Firegrain ones? I’m thinking of getting some pairs.
Could you please do a video on a full set of jobeky low volumes cymbals so we can get a good guide of how they feel and trigger compared to like a roland Vh10 or 11.
Thanks.
Awesome vid
Thanks!
Great Review! I'm looking to buy a set!
I don't know if a Ride cymbals or high hats or any good, but this one was fun to play
@@65Drums Ride is very much like the crash but with a bell zone (which is nice and large). The single piece hats take a bit of time to 'dial in' but feel great and work very similar to a VH-11 (but much less heavy).
To me , it really seemed quieter than the rubber and I really like the look of them and as you demonstrated , they make a nice crash . But first , I would have to keep that from spinning right from the start . Besides it driving me crazy it would damage the cable. The ride and hi hats may hold promise and the price seems right. Until I know more I will just stick with my VH10, CY12s and CR13. Great info as always ! Merry Christmas and a healthy and Happy New Year to you !! Keep up the good work !
It's louder than the rubber cymbal but not too bad. Merry Christmas to you too!
@@65Drums It sure sounds quieter than the rubber. Cardboard sounding rubber versus something that sounds and feels more realistic.
Hi Justin just a thought. Do you think the surface of the cymbal could rough up your sticks potentially damaging mesh heads
Like this.love all cymbals.spend all my moneys on it.$5000 .can buys, how many cymbals ? One sets of four cost ? Totals, will be ?
I'd like to see a review on the go edrum LV 360 side by side with jobeky
Hej Justin. I have bought these in 14" hihat,14" crach, 16" crash and 18" Ride.And I am very satisfied with all of them.I had som problems with the hihat at first, but then i took the felt disc that was between the hihat controller, and the top hihat away ,and now the responce works wery well,after some adjust on my Roland TD 17 modul.With the Crash and Ride cymbals, i haven`t spent a lot of time, to get them to work well. To avoid them to spin arround, i have bought Aquarian Cymbal spring with a felt disc on the top(Bought from Drumtec.de) Thanks for your videos.
Does your ride bell work well? I have the 18" too and i have to hit the bell very hard to get the bell sound instead of the head sound...
Yes, i also have to hit the bell hard, to get the Bell sound ,instead of the head sound.@@moritzp.2920
@@rolandknudsen8629 Have you tried increasing the rim gain on the ride? That will help to bring the sounds closer in volume.
Justin. I like this line the best....for me. The ATV are undoubtedly the best because of the 360* playing and they look good. But the are astonishing expensive. $500 for hats. I could buy some Meinl 15” for that. All electronic cymbals are loud. If you have a bass player next to you on stage he will be aggravated by the sound. The Jobecky real feel are quiet and very inexpensive and they look good. If and when I buy them I will buy the Aquarian spring . Same goes for the ATV Pro. Very expensive. Crappy module. I like the 3 position cones. Great idea. But Jobecky has a great 6 piece set for about $1200! Shells only. I love the poplar ocean fade color. Awesome really. You get the 3 ply heads . I assume the Drum-tec real feel will fit on the Jobecky drums. People who own them give high praise. Add a TD-17 with SD3 and....wow! What a great ekit.
Congratulations Justin for your chanell...very useful informations....did you noticed if the holes of this cymbal damage the wooden tip of the sticks ??
This is a great question - I had some Zildjian low volume cymbals and they chewed through wood tip sticks really quickly but these don't seem to do that. I personally would recommend a solid hi hat just in case.
Wow, I have just realized that building e drum kits are easier than ever! Expensive, but easy.
I guess this is ALL about "looks" first which is does score well on.
Wouldn't the rotation be stopped by angling the cymbal down slightly, using the additional weight of the trigger to resist spinning?
I would not like that rotation either. I've changed my setup also. I'm continuing to use my acoustic set but with Roland triggers. I've ordered the td_17 because of the price and new features. I'm going to use my acoustic cymbals too. But I'd like a cheap electronic cymbal too. I see Pintech 10" on Amazon for like $ 20. I only want crashes. I'm using EZ2 and presonus iTwo. The little cymbals could sound like huge China's or a splash. I would use the sounds from ez 2 . Does that idea sound correct? Thanks, Greg
Justin, have you tried the other Jobeky cymbals such as the Brilliance Real Feel, or the Dark Bronze? Jobeky was sending the Brilliance Series (or was it the basic brass series, dont remember exactly) but now looks like they are sending their drum kits with these LV cymbals. Wondering if the durability or triggering is better with the LV. Havent seen a comparison video between the 2 yet. Thanks :)
Jobeky told me they would send me a bunch of different cymbal types but I'm still waiting for now. I want to do a video comparing them :)
zildjian makes rotation stoppers for their gen16 cymbals, they would probably be compatible with the jobeky's i think
Thanks!
I think a way to get the cymbal to stay in place is to wrap the cable around the cymbal stand tight up to near the trigger box and then tape the cable
Aquarian cymbal springs stop it from spinning
has anybody tried this on an alesis controller?
Nitro, command, strike etc... ? My worry with the nitro end of the scale, which is what I have, is that there is not enough trigger setup options in the module, there is just threshold, sensitivity and crosstalk, I don't ever recall seeing a re-trigger cancel option in the module.
The 3 zone ride looks interesting if it is compatible.Thanks
Looks quite nice, I hope you get to test the hihats. Do you think they might be able to compete with the VH-11?
I sold my VH-11 after getting a brass Jobeky one piece hi hat because it works the same but looks (and feels) better 👍
Hey Justin could you review the Jobeky prestige line of drums? I really like the look of these drums but can they trigger as good as Roland or atv drums?
Hi Adam - I've used the centre mount triggers and side mount triggers from Jobeky and they are just as good as the Roland triggers. I don't know about ATV though...
If I can sell my TD-25 Module? I might buy a Set. 😉
Do you know if there is any import tax on these coming into the United States?
When you began hitting the cymbal, I started cracking up. I don't know why I expected the sound to be like a cymbals with all the rubber around it.
How do these compare to the Pintech LTE cymbals?
Anyone know if Jobeky real feel cymbals are compatible with the Pearl mimic pro module? I can’t find this info on the Jobeky website
There sick
I want to see you cover Magnatrack triggers for LV cymbals. I have some L80's I want them on.
I bought the regular Magnatrack triggers a year or two ago, and they broke on me, so I returned them. But maybe the cymbal version is better. I don't really know.
65 Drums so they have new and improved stuff hitting in january including their new version of the cymbal triggers. at $40 it seems interesting. maybe drop by their site and see what’s on the horizon.
I haven't found any videos of the new version, have you?
How working with Yamaha DTX PROX?
Pleeeease tell us about your gong drum how did you mount it??
I have a mini drum rack, and put it on there. This gong is actually a kick drum with openings on the side for bar mounts
My church just got a Jobeky drum kit with this cymbals,they sound good but not as good to my EFnote 5 ones.
maybe a yamaha cymbal rotation stopper would work on these
Actually
Goedrum has the same thing
And it doesn't need a rolling stoper
Because it is full surface
Just like a acoustic cymbals
do you have a link or name? cant find it
Can you use low volume cymbals on a cable snake???? On td17kvx
Yep.
hi, i hope you're staying safe in lockdown. do you have any tips on the setup for jobeky real feel hi-hats? i just can't get the open hi hat sound anywhere close to acoustic sound. maybe they're just not very good not sure
Are they quiter than other lines of jobeky e cymbals?
No, they're the same. But they do feel less heavy than the solid cymbals.
One thing was not clear to me.
Which one was actually louder?
The rubber cymbal looked like it was the loudest because of more "bassy" sound.
But then again the metal cymbal could be louder through high pitch.
The metal cymbal is definitely louder
interesting cause the rubber cymbal sounded louder in the video
@@65Drums Thanks for clearing that justin 👍🏻
@@demonocusmetalocus3558 I thought the same thing
From experience, in my opinion, the metal cymbal is not as loud. I swapped over to triggered l80’s at my church from rubber cymbals and could tell a huge difference from the audience perspective when our other drummer would play. The noise from the rubber cymbal, for whatever reason, did not seem to carry as far as the low volume cymbals. From the driver seat I couldn’t tell much difference. Almost like equal volume but different pitch. Hope this helps
Interesting. Pretty silent. But the spinning is a no go. I am looking forward they send you the entire set for a test.
Not silent, louder than a rubber cymbal. But not too bad.
Cymbal triggering with 2box is much better. Swell is more natural as well.
These cymbals with 2box? Or 2box cymbals? The roland rubber cymbals on my kit have a more natural swell than the jobeky ones.
I using a Jobeky drumkit, including the cymbal line in this video. The only thing I have difficulties with are the hi-hat transition steps from closed to open.This the weak spot for all electronic drumkits imho.
Hi Justin. Thanks a lot for the rview. How well does it sepearate Edge/bow sound ? do we need to hit the edge with a certain angle to get the edge sound ? Thanks
If you've used Roland rubber cymbals you'll use these in the same way - it's exactly the same principal
How do you keep it from spinning and getting the wire tangled? My OCD was going crazy.
Aquarian cymbal springs
Does this cymbal cause any of the sticks to chip? Wouldn’t want the mesh heads ripping because of a damaged stick.
Good question! It kind of looks like a cheese grater.
Hey Justin, Would this worth with an Alesis Strike set? What preset would I use?
can the rubber rings be taken off or do they have to stay on?
They help with the triggering - Jobeky suggest keeping them on.
The Magnatrack 16” crash’s rubber rim can be taken off without false triggering. The choke device on it works really well and the triggers take up so little weight and space. That said, Magnatrack is not ready for prime time and the customer support and service is lacking greatly with orders that take as much as 2 months to arrive. It seems more like a side hobby than a business which is a shame because their triggers are better designed than anything on the market.
They cant use the notched groove on the inside of the cymbal like Roland does because they can get sued for intellectual property. And they obviously cant do the yamaha spike through the hole, cause thats Yamahas intellectual property. I did something very similar with a paper clip which you can hardly see through one of the holes which works well for me.
Has anyone found a good way to keep these cymbals from rotating while playing?
Aquarian cymbal springs
I’ve recently converted my Sonor force 1500 to an electronic kit and bought the Jobeky cymbal pack. Really struggling with the hi-hat. It just sounds like an open hi hat permanently. Have set it to vh-11 on the td-30 as recommended but that doesn’t help. Any ideas?
Hi Chris - have you gone through the hi hat settings to ensure the module is seeing a closed hat? www.manualslib.com/manual/631130/Roland-V-Drums-Td-30.html?page=40
I was wondering, since these are metal, would there be any crosswalk issues if they were placed on a rack?
Good question, I don't know because i've just used it on a cymbal stand.
Try it with an Aquarian cymbal spring. It make stop the cymbal from spinning about.
i take it from your setup video the rest of the kit didnt end up arriving,shame
Crash. Hihat.ride.china.and more......go for all brands.done.collecting soon....
Hi
Hi
Yo
Yo
Actually they are not so cheap, from what I've seen
Jo Becky
Save up your money and buy a set of Zildjian L-80's.
1:41 why are you so angry with these cymbals
I'm hitting them hard, because I'm trying to do a volume comparison.
@@65Drums Xd its fine I get it
0:25 is the exact reason why I still refuse to waste my money on a Roland module. They just sound terrible.
Yay thanks for sharing the love.
If your Rolands do swells better, mine will do swells better. This is a deal breaker.
Greetings friend, my name's Chris Defiance, and I wanted to ask you if you know any talented guitarists and/or drummers that might be interested in being an alternate, fill in, or permenent member for my old metal band. We're currently looking to play some shows in and around texas, and also looking for a few other bands to tour with later this next year. Our music is on UA-cam and my band is called Foretold Defiance, sorry to spam, lmfao... also if you know any bands looking for a frontman please send them my way, looking to do some new projects also, thanks for your time - 👍🤘✌👻🌶
