Excellent, Justin! Your videos are the best! ... and thanks for the shout out! BTW - I helped design and program the Medeli MZ928.

I would LOVE to see you do a deep dive on V2 of Sensory Percussion. The way they’ve revamped the software and hardware is MASSIVE and really opens it up to more accessibility (lots of ways to use other MIDI/triggers/control options). The modular approach is insane and the things I’ve accomplished with it over V1 are night and day.

I am a simple man, I see 65 drums and I click watch!

Very nice recap video Justin!! Hope you have a Merry Christmas!!

I've actually had a chance to play some of the EF-Note e-Drums at NAMM, and I love them, they have great response, great sounds, of course the shells are amazing

[jOHNNYDEM]

Nitro Max sounds 3X better than its predecessor. Night and day on both sounds and sensitivity/crosstalk control.

One thing I'd really like to see in the future is an open source e-drum module that can host any and every drum VSTi on the planet, somewhat similar to the Pearl Module but an open source design that will host any VST drum library in the world. There are so many great sounding libraries out there it would be great to have an e-drum module where you just load up your favorite VST drum library and be good to go. If I, as a non drummer, am thinking about this, then I'm sure some hardware and software developers are thinking about this as well. Something to consider for the future of e-drums?

Fingers crossed Roland gets their heads out of their butts and actually offers better stock sounds in a new update to the TD27/50 modules. Was very disappointed in the stock kits and EDrum Workshop came in clutch with some really good kits and samples for my TD27 module on my VAD504. Otherwise I really wish the EFnote kits had some sort of SD capabilities for importing samples and processed kits into it.

Good review! Thanks Merry Christmas Y'all!

[DylicousDylan]

I wish I could get the chance to play an efnote kit. But I’m broke rn. Put thousands of dollars this year into an acoustic kit 😂

[bdshopny]

If budget wasn’t a concern, which kit would you pick for best feel, internal sounds, and features??? Like top tier if you won the lottery!!?

[burakkaragoz]

Medeli Mz 928 looks really good. I hope you will make video for this drum set soon.

Any thoughts on Lemon kits like the T 950?

[Mr...USCH]

I L❤VE the stage box & "Ozone" looking e-cymbal pad on the 707 Full. But how is the Tone???

Hi Justin! Thanx for your work, it's amazing!
A question: I'm browsing with no rush for my first e-kit (restarting playing drums after a 20&more years stop, in an environment where I can't slam on the acoustic set ). I'm oriented towards the yamaha dtx6k3-x and the roland td 17 kvx2. I'm leaning on the yamaha, because it seems more compact (space is an issue), I seem to prefer the sounds of the module (you described as "punchier"), the hihat stand is included ad it cost less. On the other hand what I like about the roland is the fact that the toms are dual zone.
At this point the main discrimination is the machine gun effect, and there's my question: is there any difference between yamaha and roland, using specifically their modules? The machine gun effect is less prominent using vsts?
Unfortunately, there are no stores in my area where I can try both modules side by side.
Thanks for all!

Interested in if you think the Simmons Titan 70 is a worthy budget buy? Looking to pick one up...

[Pentatonickc]

Hi. I have been watching your videos while trying to get an electric drums that will not disturb the neighbors and will use the drums giving drum lessons and also for rehearsals with my band while i will be rehearsing with it. I need something that's not expensive but will last and not break so quick

[AryanSinha-fsvf]

could you please do a review of the Mandala Pad V3 in 2024?

[kbarb]

Would love to see proper reviews of medeli and unlock drums/products

Those smart pads look interesting

[WeSuckAsHumans]

I didn't know e drums were so advanced...Sold my Roland a while back and now looking for a super cheap kit to just practice chops quietly. Great video
