I got mine delivered to me the other day, and I absolutely love it! I already had the Yamaha DTX II extreme (which I also love), but always wanted to “acoustic feel”. This really solves the issue for me. I’m getting some additional triggers to beef up my sound. My next thing is learning to use the “rec n’ share” app I also downloaded on my iPhone 8+. Overall...I’m VERY happy. Once again...Yamaha hits a Home Run!
One of the best videos for the EAD's actual results, but I'm sure there's an audience that would say that kit and setup would sound awesome just the same... That's the first thing that came to mind... BUT..... We just bought one for a basic micro kit Sonor SQ and I can challenge your lovely black Yamaha, biased of course.. Any drummer who just doesn't want to give up the dynamics of a real kit ... just get one!
Got the EAD10 some time ago and I never want to practise without it. Absolutely one of the best and most usable products in the drumming world in decades. Btw, I love your kit! Is that a Recording Customs?
Brandon chaves villegas absolutely positive. I even use it in hybrid mode: recording drums through the regular microphones with the addition of the EAD10 for the extra spices.
Does anyone ever use those silly presets and effects? Seem utterly useless. Any experience just using the module to enhance their kit live? Is it worth it or do the features get in the way?
Blend it in with close mics and bam!!! You got a pro recording.. Especially if you don't have a room... This will work very well to give you that room sound you might be missing of you don't have a room
SUPER hard to find ANY right now, because of covid. I called guitar center where I live, and they had FIFTY SEVEN backorders for them, with no expectations of when they might ship out next. Especially since it involves the Asian market. Here's a hint: find one remaining in a personal collection already in the states. I just bought one of the last new ones on eBay 4 days ago, that was in a mom and pop drum shop in Kansas City, called "ExplorersPercussion". I got their last one they had in stock, but saw another seller on ebay that had 8-10 left. They're going quick, especially with the lockdowns, gig cancelations, recording studios not booking ppl, etc. It's invaluable if you're puttsing around the home studio and want an easy way to record yourself or mic in live contexts. Ebay has been the only place I've found ppl still selling new ones unopened for 499. A bunch of other ppl are trying to get list price for them ($650), or are selling open box units for around 300-350. Good luck! Thing is a blast!
Sorry I'm only new to this and I know the video is over 6 years old but I hope someone can answer my question. At to 2:58 minute mark, he discusses beefing the bass drum with triggers and changing the trigger of the bass drum to a rock sound. This sounds amazing. My question is does the Mic system that comes with the module that attaches to the bass drum hoop make that sound? Or do you need to add the Yamaha Bass drum trigger DT50K to the back of the module to get the sound to change the bass drum sound? Tks
Would I be able to use a normal trigger like the dt50k bass drum trigger from Yamaha and basically replace the the actual mic/trigger that comes with the module? I want a bass drum trigger but I don’t want to spend more money on another module if I don’t have to. Thanks again!!
I can hear in this video what I've been reading from users, which is that the centrally located mics don't do a great job of picking up the hi hat. And the snare has a definite "underside" sound to it. I had been hoping this might be a one-stop solution to mic'ing my kit for live performance, but I'm doubtful at this point.
this video is very cool and the yamaha module is really great! I'm a beginner and I'm starting to study drums, do you mind if I ask you to tell me what type of fill you play at 0:8? its very cool, sorry but Im a beginner and I dont have any idea! does it has something to do with double stroke roll? I would really love to learn how to play it, thanks!! :)
Don’t do it!!!!!. I was thinking the same thing for a live setting!!!!. This will NOT sound like this in a live setting!!! ALL of these type ☝️ videos you are hearing what they sound like through the head set mix… this is DEFINITELY more toward hearing yourself and making videos for up loading!!!. This thing SUX for live venues!!!!. I’m boxing mine up and selling on EBAY and going backing to the standard ole Shure 57’s and 52!☝️🤔 I’m VERY disappointed in this for live music!!!. It’s perfect if you wanna blast the house with a screaming ass loud RIDE CYMBAL!!!🤬!!!!
I’ve used mine in a live setting and ironed out the balance issues. It’s great for small bar gigs but it’s not really going to cut it in big rooms. Saying that, if you’re playing big places then you’re either using the house rig and sound engineer or your own engineer and truck load of PA gear. I found the acoustic bass drum sound picked up to be quiet, so a sound check would consist of getting a sound with that mixed with trigger - very quick - then work on bringing up the level of the top mics. Yes, you can adjust the individual sensitivity of L&R mics and even take them down to a minus level. Yes, it is a ‘top heavy’ arrangement so I find opting for a triggered bass drum and then bringing up the top mics to a balance is the way to go. It seems to me Yamaha must have realised the bass drum was always going to be the loser in the way the kit got picked up, hence the trigger below. If you’re a purist who will only accept a pure acoustic bass drum sound then this isn’t really going to cut it. But if you’re prepared to use 90% trigger for the BD then you have the power to control the sensitivity of the top mics. If you’re a heavy player and lay into your Ride cymbal or it’s particularly ’washy’ then the spill into that side will be loud. But it will be possible to take down the level of the mic on the ride cymbal side to compensate. No, it’s not a replacement for a fully miked up kit scenario, but if you’re just doing bars and wedding type venues it’ll be fine and is less hassle than a full miking scenario. At that level of engagement the audience aren’t really going to be bothered because they’re only looking at the singer anyway!
Im really considering this. Can you use kick from, scene 1, snare from scene 2, toms from scene 3, three zone pad from kit 4...... or any other combination? If so, lm probably sold on this. My origional thought was to use a roland td50 with superior drummer on acoustic drums with acoustic heads and real cymbals. Then mic the drums and place overheads too, so l can record the mics and td50 simultaneously. Then just use the faders on my daw to mix them for desired effect. It almost seems like the ead10 system can somewhat duplicate the same process all within itself. Hopefully if l buy this, more acoustic sounding scenes will be added in future updates.
yes, you can do it all with 700 built ins, to any trigger, then control the mix and vol, even tap the source like a digital kit to re-assign. AND... we plugged in a Roland Kick SPD-1 percussion pad and it turned into a trigger
The Johnny the drummer guy is wrong. They made an update that works with mesh low volume heads and low volume cymbals. I use it with Remo silent stroke heads and zildjian L80’s
Hey. You can use an audio cable for the auxin. Or you can connect the iPhone to the usb-host by using a camera connection kit and a standard usb-cable if you want to use the App rac'n'share. Android is coming later...
a couple nice features, but not anything new a roland eventually will have to do, depending on how you record live, or play live ..The engineers will take over from there, and hopefully give you the best monitoring of play you’ve ever experienced. This unit is good for you young bucks to start cyborging yourselves. i used to make my own triggers, and you will soon learn what sound balance means adjusting them to acoustic drums…get in to it! it’s a great and fun thing. Until another player or two, just drowns it all out all the time being too loud and not caring about an overall balance… My recommendation for that as hard as it might be, is replacing that person. ..because.. How will you ever make good music if it’s going to have the famous “ima loud star whackadoodle dude” problem..haha. ya. that dude.
The condenser mics on the trigger make it a bit different, and it is integrated with all that social media BS. But good plug on what looks like a cool product.

We seem to all agree. I think the Yamaha corp needs to put one on a basic kids kit in a bedroom!
This video is super presented, and the presenter is an awesome drummer, hats off!
Maybe get an iphone
He really wanted that Noiz preset to be good.
here 2 years late to affirm that he really did....
great video though and great drummer
@@kyronnewbury lol
Fantastic review. By far the easiest to understand with great info and sound examples. Good job!
Ordered 1 for our drummer today can't wait
How do you like it?
@@skullkid112 it's fantastic
All you to do set the gate on your mix as if it was just a kick drum if you're using it to mic the set
@leroyharper4513 nice! Thinking about picking one up for our church.
@skullkid112 do it for sure especially if you want to capture different drum sounds for different types of songs
One of the best videos for the EAD's actual results, but I'm sure there's an audience that would say that kit and setup would sound awesome just the same... That's the first thing that came to mind... BUT.....

Cheers Guys!
When will the app come out for android?
@@isaactorres4062 Tell me!
App only for iOS, give us Android too
Thats very very cool!! Awesome job Yamaha! DC
hey,
can u go over the connections to hook up to mixer and talk about the usb stick please??
great drummer!

I have a band and I wonder if this device can be used to record our drums for our music?
Brandon chaves villegas absolutely positive. I even use it in hybrid mode: recording drums through the regular microphones with the addition of the EAD10 for the extra spices.
i got to get me one of these!!
Does this change the cymbal sounds too?
Is this all recorded with the EAD 10?
Yes
Does anyone ever use those silly presets and effects? Seem utterly useless. Any experience just using the module to enhance their kit live? Is it worth it or do the features get in the way?
Great demo, thanks
The Future!
Mint for recording
Blend it in with close mics and bam!!! You got a pro recording.. Especially if you don't have a room... This will work very well to give you that room sound you might be missing of you don't have a room
The free app is only for Apple?
I need one! For my Yamaha kit. Lol
love u bro...great work!!!
It might be a stupid question, but can you use it easily in a live situation?
Thank you!
I must buy one
Does it matter how big your kit? I have and 8 piece at my home studio already micd up using a Presonus hybrid mixer. Will this work with my setup ?
Is there another similar product? I can´t find this. Amazon says it´s out of stock.

Is the trigger light supposed to be blinking when playing?
Can this be sent to a Behringer X32 to run with the rest of the band?
Very cool

@@thedrumdoctor Thank you! 🙌
hi,
my bass drum is very boomy esp with ead. anywsy of correcting this through ead? id like to leave the tuning alone.
thanks
Will it work with a double bass?
Superb 👌 👌
Way to much focus on the flanging noise. Should have put the Arena setting out there for a better example. Nice playing and demo.
Im really considering this.

3:55 was that "Susidio"?
Yes... Ios closed systems sucks. I wanna use my freedom to record and share
Hi there...
I have my drum at home and that's why I use silenstroke pads, and Ziltjian L80 cymbals, could this kit work well for my drum kit?
Thanks.
The Johnny the drummer guy is wrong. They made an update that works with mesh low volume heads and low volume cymbals. I use it with Remo silent stroke heads and zildjian L80’s
MattBdrums Official Thank you 👍🏽, you make my day 👍🏽
Better than electronic drums
Why is there so much phasing on the cymbals?
How did you connect the Phone to the EAD? What's the Cable that your using?
Hey. You can use an audio cable for the auxin. Or you can connect the iPhone to the usb-host by using a camera connection kit and a standard usb-cable if you want to use the App rac'n'share. Android is coming later...
Thanks man..
Can you just record audio and no video to your phone?
No but you can record directly to an USB Stick each take can be up to 30min!!!
And overdub is possible!
Quieroooo unooooo
I don't get the point of a trigger having a mic on it. Can someone explain please?
The trigger is obviously for the kick drum. The mics are for the whole kit.
a couple nice features, but not anything new a roland eventually will have to do,
depending on how you record live, or play live ..The engineers will take over from there,
and hopefully give you the best monitoring of play you’ve ever experienced.
This unit is good for you young bucks to start cyborging yourselves.
i used to make my own triggers, and you will soon learn what sound balance means
adjusting them to acoustic drums…get in to it! it’s a great and fun thing.
Until another player or two, just drowns it all out all the time being too loud
and not caring about an overall balance…
My recommendation for that as hard as it might be, is replacing that person.
..because..
How will you ever make good music if it’s going to have the famous “ima loud star whackadoodle dude” problem..haha. ya. that dude.
Records only in one track, right? No stereo
I do believe it is stereo. The mic is binaural
Just buy some Uhaul boxes and triggerize em and your good to go
What drum set are you using?
I believe It's a Yamaha Tour Custom in Liquorice Satin
You never said anything about using it live
Would this work with mesh heads too?
Guess so... and hope so! haha
I went to guitar center to get new strings on my acoustic guitar
me n homeboy got the same last name
Who in all honesty doe anyone use the silly sounds? I love the EAD for live work, but without the looney sounds.
Rly dont understand real life use of some effects
Great review and Great piece of kit if anyone wants another demo go to my UA-cam Channel where I use the ead10 to record .
Would you recommend this instead of drum mics for live cover band?
trigmic.com - that guys did it 6 years ago!
The condenser mics on the trigger make it a bit different, and it is integrated with all that social media BS. But good plug on what looks like a cool product.
I wonder if it is just a gadget though.... 500 bucks is a bit for me
As always😩... guitar center with their wack drum kick tones! 😷😧
It’s a great presentation but omg why did he have to use the really ridiculous shitty sounding effects from this thing lmao
Exactly!!!!
how to make a perfectly fine sounding acoustic drum kit into a super gimmicky "v-drum" kit!!!!
Well, no
Got the EAD10 some time ago and I never want to practise without it. Absolutely one of the best and most usable products in the drumming world in decades.
Btw, I love your kit! Is that a Recording Customs?
spot on!
hi,

Just turn the trigger knob down
What phone mount are you using?
