This thing seems like a great value. I am starting to change my view on electric drums. This thing has a nice clean look and I want one. Great Video!!!
thank you for answering the main question I had since being burned on a donner ded400 that has zero dynamic range I am happy to see this kit actually lets you hear a difference between soft and hard hits. my donner (sells for the same price point by the way) doesn't matter if I hit it soft or hard, so impossible to play accent notes when every note has the same sound regardless of how hard I hit it. I am seriously thinking of getting this kit. I just need to figure out a way to swap out my donner kit with this one without my wife noticing lol.
I have a DED 200, and it's terrible. great for kids to play with, but that's it. I can't get midi out past 32 notes, so multitrack recording is right out. All my demos using it are straight line-usb in.
@@imjustadrummer thanks for mentioning that, I am glad at least it isn't because I don't know enough to setup my drums properly it is intrinsic with the donner brand. I am so drooling over the Simmons e-kit
Awesome review! I subscribed after seeing this, very well done. I have a full instrument loop setup with an Alesis DM6 I got for $80 that I’ve been dying to upgrade. Torn between Alesis Nitro Max 10 piece for $500 and this for $640 but seems like this is worth the extra $140. I’m already in debt from poor choices and impulse buys so what the hell 😅
I loved the 3 zone sound on ride. I love my Alesis Surge kit, however I can’t get the bell sound which drives me crazy!!! 🤬 I love cowbells, your tortilla cymbal😀, chinas… love them man! One can’t describe this
Really great video quality and content my friend, thank you! As for guessing the song, I believe it's Bat Country by Avenged Sevenfold, isn't? Definitely a great one to play on the kit =)
At this price point there are no challengers. Super sturdy rack. Amazing sounds. Do customize even preset kits. I am sending kit to a mini powered mixer w/ a 5 headphone splitter jack so the whole band can play along. The mixer makes this kit even sound better! Tension your pads to emulate your acoustic drum set up. I am using the DW 5000 heelless pedal w/ plastic beater w/ pedal plate [helps stabilize the kick]. The kick pedal is garbage should have not included it and lowered the price point.
Awesome review! Please, you have to point out the possibilities when connecting these edrums to a DAW with GetGoodDrums or BFD3 or EZDrummer3. That was the point where I as a hobby metal drummer thought, ok... I'll stick to the edrums.
Thank you , well done demonstration ... I don't see any difference from my Alesis dm10, and maybe nowadays the various top range drum kits are very similar .... I would like , instead , to see new Simmons EXAGONAL pads with the dynamic which we can have in these times .... I still have the old Simmons exagonal pads but they can be used only for electronic music having not much dynamic .....
Absolutely loving this! I'm seriously wanting one of these bad boys now. I once had a go on a Simmons kit well over 30 years ago. That was obviously the old hex shaped pads. An exciting/interesting experience. I'd love a bash on the Titan 70. Some nice playing here too. Impressive all round 👏🏻
Unfortunately, when I got my kit the frame clamps were already cracked and the plastic clamps were so tight and would get very loose even after one day. I also couldn't stand the feel of the hihat. it was returned a day later.
For a budget friendly e-kit, it is not as bad as others. I do not agree with lower-end low-budget e-kits. You can learn the basics on them, but they are nothing like playing an accustic kit or a high-end e-kit. You can learn the very basics on this kit or other lower-end e-kits, but to get good at playing drums, you will need a high-end e-kit or an accustic kit. Once you feel you have mastered playing this kit or similar kits and you then go to play an accustic kit or a high-end e-kit, it will seem like you can not play them well. That is because there is a relearning curve as you get used to how a good drum kit should play, perform, speak, and sound. A high-end e-kit or an accustic kit has better feel, sound, more playable zones, bigger more realistic sizes, more sound variations for realistic dynamics, a better module with more editing, and overall better playability. If you want to learn guitar do you first start with a toy that doesn't really play, sound, or feel like a guitar? Then why buy what drummers consider a toy of a drum set? Yea, I understand that high-end e-kits are expensive, but they are totally worth saving up for if you are serious about learning and playing drums. After you get good on a lower-end budget friendly e-kit, you will want to either upgrade it or buy a better kit. I would not waste the money as a good high-end e-kit will save you money in the long run, and you will be happier and learn better faster without a relearning curve down the road and wasting a bunch of money finaly getting a better kit.
I guess I have high expectations. I think it sounds kinda noticeably sampled, and I noticed the samples don’t appear to be layered just different volumes, no dynamics, ;(
Are the levels equal w both zones on snare? I had such a problem w the crosstock feature on roland td17 . Playing in a yacht rock band there is many tunes you need a good crosstick sound.
Hi Alejandro. How did you pass the song to this video. I am struggling with recording my sound on video. I have the Simons Titan 50. Any help would be appreciated.
Thanks for the review Alejandro. I've been looking for a reasonably priced electronic kit and you practically sold me on this one. I have a couple of questions. Will the kick drum pad accommodate a double pedal? Also, does the module have extra inputs for additional toms and/or cymbals? TIA
Had to come back to guess the song, Avenged Sevenfold - Bat Country ofcourse
Bingo😂same here
Nothing like the smell of a fresh new e-kit
As a self taught drummer it looks like a fine e kit to me bro and very amazing
Great review! This was a great presentation. Thanks for sharing!👏

There's a new Donner kit out right now. It sounds pretty good.
@@DrummerGrrrl have you played it yet? I'll have to look it up!
Those sounds are incredible and the triple zone ride is a game changer
GREAT VIDEO! I'm upgrading from a Roland TD-5 (yes, I'm that old) to the Titan 70.... it arrives on Thursday this week. #stoked
i just got it for Christmas and i love it
Customizing the kick is probably my favorite part because I like to get creative.
I have the T-50, and it ROCKS, now I NEED The T-70!
FINALLY!! DRUM ENGINEERS THAT ARE SERIOUS ABOUT PERCUSSION IN MUSIC!!
Bros building up a collection, very epic 🔥
Your review has been the most helpful. Everyone else talks about the dual zones, I like that you actually demonstrated it.
Bro it's amazing
The word you're looking for at 8:27 is 'bow'

Didnt know simmons is still in business
I enjoyed the video on the titan 70. Finally a decent electronic set thAT WILL NOT DRAIN the bank.
Nice kit! Nice playing also!👍👍👍
Nice playing, gonna pull the trigger, thanks bro 👍
You’ve convinced me, I’m getting this kit.
I built my own electronic kit using a real 6 piece evolution ludwig. Sounds great, love it!
7:10 bat country
I'm also loving your new hairstyle bro.
The Simmons Titan 70 versus The Alesis Strike Pro?
Man I love e-kits with build in metronomes
fire bruh!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
your class on drums 🔥
Sounds amazing! i like the presets
Wow. Wish to play like you in the future.
I like this shit!!!
Great drummer!!! 😎👍🏻👍🏻👍🏻
😎🔥
Great vid,down with the 70👍😎
Awesome electric drumset
Love the mustache bro
did not expect to hear batg country in this video
Nice review.

Great video and thanks........But i can't find this kit in the UK. i SO WANT ONE BADLY. Duel zone is a great idea. Please is there a UK distributor?
i love your mustache bro ❤🤣

Bro, you're totally right. The Titan 70 does look like an electric version of you blue maxtone drum kit.
Absolutely loving this! I'm seriously wanting one of these bad boys now. I once had a go on a Simmons kit well over 30 years ago. That was obviously the old hex shaped pads. An exciting/interesting experience. I'd love a bash on the Titan 70. Some nice playing here too. Impressive all round 👏🏻
Amazing
I like how the kick drum is more bigger this time
The 2nd part of the ride cymbal is called the surface.
Unfortunately, when I got my kit the frame clamps were already cracked and the plastic clamps were so tight and would get very loose even after one day. I also couldn't stand the feel of the hihat. it was returned a day later.
Have you, or CAN you, hook up your double bass pedal from say….an acoustic drum set?
I hope you can make a SHORT video on that to show it.
Hoping to pick mine up TODAY, if it was on the Guitar Center truck 🥁 replacing my burned out Alesis Command X…(Asurion is a joke!)
Triple zone ride the terms you are looking for is bell, bow, and edge. Sort of cymbal speak 101.
I like how you can make one of the toms have a cowbell sound.
it is an e-kit so if you wanna play with three snares instead of toms and a floor tom on the snare, you can. pretty dope
also the fact I hate the headphone wire I have to use on my ded-400 makes the bluetooth option heavenly.
7:11 Bat Country - A7X
Why you guys always got the good stuff lol we cannot even purchase in Australia

It depends on what the end goal is though. If you plan to be a hobbyist I don’t see any point in saving 6-8k for an edrum kit.
I like it 👍
I like the kits on the 50. Does the 70 have all the same kits?
I wonder if you made the mini e-kit monster again using the structure from the Titan 70 and see if the results come out different from the Titan 50
the song is bat country by avenged sevenfold
The song is bat country by a7x( rip rev)
I’m buying my first e-kit and I’m wondering, there’s no problem with setting it up as left handed, is it?
The song is BAT COUNTRY AX7🤘
(This is the first guess)
Love the outfit by the way dude
Arriving tomorrow! What are the dimensions of the rack? Meaning footprint on floor. Thanks! Your' vids helped my decision!
Nice
You should try out the Roland VAD706 and do a review on it
Bat Country!
If you think this sounds good, look at 2box drumit 3 & drumit5 mk2. Blows pretty much everything else away!
Quick question if I may, do these have a kit that will sound like those 80's hex Simmons kits did?
Je regarde pas trop longtemps mais j' aime beaucoup parce-que vous jouer avec tendressement.
This is for beginners or professional ?
Beginners
And I love it when you do the Maneskin pose haha. It's a funny pose
I guess I have high expectations. I think it sounds kinda noticeably sampled, and I noticed the samples don’t appear to be layered just different volumes, no dynamics, ;(
WHAT ARE THE OVERALL DIMENSIONS OF THE COMPLETE SETUP?
how are you using in ears with the kit? is it wire connected to a computer and the in ears are connected to the computer?
The cymbal sound like Zildjian K Sweet
Are the levels equal w both zones on snare? I had such a problem w the crosstock feature on roland td17 . Playing in a yacht rock band there is many tunes you need a good crosstick sound.
7:11 is bat country
Pretty sure that song is Avenged Sevenfold - bat country.
Hi Alejandro. How did you pass the song to this video. I am struggling with recording my sound on video. I have the Simons Titan 50. Any help would be appreciated.
Hi!!! By any chance, do you know the measure of the box (whole set)? Thanks
The only negative I have for the Titan 70 is how the hi hat is still separate from the pedal
how would you say this kit feels compared to a roland kit? do the mesh heads have the same high quality as roland's?
is it easy to fold the sides in when you're not playing them?
have you ever tried to play Shinunoga e-Wa
I want this dammit 😆
and the song is bat country form Ax7??
Can you choke the cymbals??
What is the title of the original video you got the clip from
Thanks for the review Alejandro. I've been looking for a reasonably priced electronic kit and you practically sold me on this one. I have a couple of questions. Will the kick drum pad accommodate a double pedal? Also, does the module have extra inputs for additional toms and/or cymbals? TIA
Yes. It will accommodate a dual pedal with ease
The module has 2 expansion slots that are also dual zone so you can add 4 more triggered sounds
This info is very helpful. Thank you Jason.
Can you please share your Global setting file?
Simmons should go back to the cool-looking shapes of the drums and cymbals.
so i have a question what do you do with all the drums you have like where you put them?? osea como? LOL
I have 50. Sound about the same or better?
I have one and the Roland in this price range is more realistic feeling
Titan70
