    The Max 's module IS actually dual zone, it's the pads that aren't. I noticed the leads had stereo jacks and tried a Roland pad and it's dual zone!

    I just bought a Roland TD07-KVX kit back in June during "drum month" from Sweetwater, and I married it to my existing TD-6V brain with 3 Alesis Nitro Mesh pads set up in a concert drum (RotoTom) arrangement over my brains and hi hat. I have noticed the Nitro Mesh are triggering BETTER than my more expensive Roland PD-8X's which are running through the new TD07-KVX brain. The Alesis pads are running through the older TD-6V brain, and respond better, but not as good as my 36 year old PD-21 pads that were finally starting to fail on me after bashing on them in 2 Christian metal bands (1987-89) and doing praise and worship since 1987, which is WHY at almost 64 y.o. I purchased the newer Roland TD07-KVX on my current budget without spending a fortune on higher dollar ($3K+) V-Drums. Love what Cooper expertly did on video as always!

  • @danielkarsten1579

    Hi! Does this kit have a choke on the the crash and ride cymbals (not the hi hat). Also, one thing I'm looking for is a kit with a snare that can do the snare head sound, rimshot sound, and side-stick sound all in one drum sound in the module. Thanks! Great video by the way! I'm half way through. Still watching!

    Can someone help? Can you play the nitro max through a speaker at the same time as listening to it through headphones. The left/right output on the back of the nitro max module to a 3.5mm jack into the speaker and headphones connected to the nitro max module? It won’t work for me 😩

  • @thebeginningofsorrows7500
    @thebeginningofsorrows7500 Před 6 měsíci +2

    I was wondering whether to buy this or the NUX DM 210 - I think the Alesis is the better buy as it has 3 way eq control (in the kits, not the individual pads) and it also has 2 extra trigger inputs - the NUX has one extra trigger and no EQ, BUT it does have dual zone pads around the kit, the Alesis only has a dual zone snare. I have dual zone on all my Roland TD11KV s pads and cymbals, it's not a deal breaker to me.
    ALESIS ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐
    I'd rather have the eq and 2 triggers than dual zone pads.
    But both kits sound good.
    I have zero interest in using drum software, the module must sound good enough with the need for that, also its more hassle and more that can go wrong and more to cart along to gigs and practices.

    I will probably buy it! Is it possible to pair the drum on your cell phone with a Bluetooth headset at the same time?

    • @sweetwater
      @sweetwater  Před 4 měsíci +1

      Hello, jean-philippedionne6686! The Alesis Nitro Max’s drum module can only act as a Bluetooth receiver. In other words, it cannot transmit audio to a Bluetooth headset. It can only receive Bluetooth audio. In order to hear the kit and the audio you are sending over Bluetooth to it, you will need to use the headphone out or the main ¼” outputs on the module itself.
      Thanks for the interest!

  • @ZailBG
    @ZailBG Před 7 měsíci +1

    Anyone tried putting a different bass drum on it so that you can play double bass? Like a Yamaha KP65 which I know works on the Nitro Mesh. I wonder if the same will apply here.

    • @munkeslamik2708
      @munkeslamik2708 Před 6 měsíci

    Is there enough room for a double pedal on that bass pad?

    • @sweetwater
      @sweetwater  Před 6 měsíci +2

      Hey, Enochwonder. It can handle a double pedal if the beaters are close enough together. I believe the manufacturer doesn’t recommend using a double pedal, though.
      I hope this helps.

      It depends on what you're gonna use it for. If it's just for practicing for beginners, then yes this is highly recommended. If you're like some of the gear snobs around here who's looking for a $2,000 sound quality on a $400 drum kit, then you're probably gonna be disappointed, lol. As an entry level drum kit, I don't think you can go wrong with this one

    I suppose for $400 it's worth it, but for a little more money you can find a used Roland TD-17 or Yamaha DX-502 series kit that are on a different level. These sound on par with my first E-kit, a Yamaha DTXpress III Special from almost 20 years ago.

      Hello, babooll5632! The short answer is no, you cannot because the ride cymbal is a single zone cymbal, meaning it can only trigger one sound. That said, the module has some additional dual zone inputs on it. If you were two purchase a dual zone cymbal, that would allow you to crash the ride.

You can upgrade your sounds, so if you dont like the factory sounds, get what you like, compared to spending $1,200 on a low end Roland this is value price point. This is a great practice kit for the novice or pro

    Raise that snare pad up to around your navel, then adjust the surrounding pads to match and you'll be less likely to develop a Buddy Rich arched back.
