Roland eDrum Trigger Cones; Comparing and Repairing

Roland eDrum Trigger Cones; Comparing and Repairing,

Part 1 of 3 eDrum videos:


In this video, I unbox and compare a Roland OEM cone to an aftermarket cone from UFO drums, and add a foam disc to a previously installed UFO cone.

Please leave your comments below, I'd love to hear about your cone replacement experience, or suggestions. Subscribe if you want to see more videos.

Great video Tom! I bought a used PD-100 single zone and turned it into a dual zone drum by adding a second piezo (the electronics is already inside the PD-100) following a YouTube tutorial. I bought the piezo from UFO and while I was at it, I also replaced the PD-100 cone with one from UFO. Working great! UFO has very good products.

I'm trying the Octocone from UFODrums, it gets delivered Friday. Considering doing a video since there's not many repair videos of these on YouTube.

I'm not a drummer, but our church has a Roland TD-20 drum kit, and have never changed the cones, SO I am pushing for that! What repair might be needed for the cymbals and hi-hat? Thanks!

I know this is an old post but I failed to see a conclusion as to how successful were the non-Roland cones!

Hello,
I bought Convertible Percussion cones and they touch the underside of the heads quite firmly, so they seem to peek if struck dead on.

You had the Roland OEM cones in your hand! Why in the world did you not install them?

[alexdsouza]

Hey Tom where can I get the cones, or rather buy ? Thanks man

The link to the roland cones dont work, do you have another source?

[muggitps]

You've already damaged the UFO cone base so you can't compare it unless you use anew one to compare it with the roland

nice video. but piezo is pronounced pee-ay-zoe, not pee-zee-oh.
