I❤this piece 2:35 👌👍 but... please make the cover some really ambitious music🙏 ... or if You don't want to do this, then whatever speed/thrash Battery style drumming? Pls
PLAY AN AUGUST BURNS RED SONG ALREADY
Good morning kiddo 🤟😛💋
I'm intrigued by this concept and nice demonstration btw. A question for you about your experience with the product if you ever have time to answer. I would use this to practice in hotel rooms on the go for example, how does this product function for rudiment practice and snare stuff ?apart from beats as you perfectly demonstrated in the video.. naturally I can stick to practice pads but it would be cool if this registered double strokes well. Anyway, I do like the product no matter, one for me to Christmas list
why no rush or metallica?
I bought it and sent it back. It still needs to be improved.
One step closer to a full band lineup using only air instruments. the future is a wild place lol
Right? I was just thinking, what a time to be alive!🤩
Look at our girl getting all the sponsors ❤️
Her English is incredible
I prefet her when she's drumming
Wouldn't be so bad If aeroband wasn't a massive scam. They literally sue youtubers who give HONEST reviews. I've lost so much respect for the drummers that actually endorse this bullshit terrible product
@@philkasafir. Can confirm, it's a complete scam. My bank backcharged them for it.
Imagine the kid that brought that to school, and start doing blastbeat 😂😂
Travelling with those must be so much fun just to watch everyone’s reaction all around…. On a serious note, headphones 🎧 & get lost into the beat, the groove & let go..😊
When a rock falls on the table it makes a loud sound. That's consciousness affecting consciousness creating consciousness. So the rock is consciousness. It hits the table which is consciousness and the sound it creates is consciousness.
Not necessarily
You are super talented! Fun to listen to and watch so I wasn't surprised you did an awesome job with these. I've been checking them out with various folks and there's pros/cons but for those that don't already play you can't go wrong for the $$$. One possible path for many is to get these then decide after a while is an ekit the thing to move onto.
😎
There's a reason why you can't play anything other than a simple 1, 2, 3 4 beat with these things. They're useless. I had more fun using drum sticks without sound... just hitting air
Hey Kristina, nice review, great skill! I've tried these sticks recently for a few weeks. I'm just a novice with drumming. For me they worked OK-ish at home, took some time getting used to, no bounce back makes things more difficult (a workout of sorts), there's some drift when playing for extended periods so frequent recalibration was required. But they were not a good option for on-the-go play for me - they start to fail when several other active BT devices are around (for example I had a pair of BT speakers + BT on the phone connected to PC) - start to lag or just completely not trigger, and since sticks and pedals cannot be connected over USB directly, in the end I decided to return and stick to drum pads for now.
If your learning drums best use a practice pad at the very least, these sticks will end up driving you crazy with the latency & trying to find your virtual drums which it seems keep moving.
Finally! I’ve been waiting for your review for this product, keep up the good work Kriss!! 🦖🦖💕
Are you aware that it is not a review but a paid promotion, right?
Nice and honest review..!!
I just bought this and can't wait to try it out! As a drummer that now lives in an apartment with no way to practice, i cant wait to see how it works out. Im not expecting it to be perfect, but from what you showed here, it should be more than enough. Thank you so much for sharing this. I cant wait to see how it performs!
How is it
@@MollyL5 just bought it and it's freaking cool, just do it, make yourself happy
I actually ended up returning it unfortunately. I could never get it to accurately detect drums consistently with over 2 hours of trying. It’s great for basic beats and simple fills, but impossible to do a roll on the toms or two different drums without it playing random drums.
If I were a beginner drummer, it would be great, but trying to unlearn normal drum ‘mechanics’ to get it to work was too frustrating for me.
All in all, it’s an amazing product, it just wasn’t worth it for me to justify the cost. Also, to get the best sound out of it, you really need to use the midi function and connect it to your computer with ez drummer or something similar, and that is also an additional cost. I am planning on buying an electronic drum kit instead.
@@rodrigoa958 I did the same and I love this thing! Not a drummer at all and I understand there's no real feel or bounce, rebound ect... but for those of us that have been life-long digit drummers (toes hands and fingers) it's really a cool thing for the money. I've not had mine quite a week yet but been having a lot of fun trying to learn with it. Things like calibrating in the correct orientation is important. Another is angle on the sticks. Flat for hi-hat, snare and floor tom. Angled up for crash hi and mid tom and ride.
I am in the process of checking out some kind of Win10 compatible DAW and then where to get the VST sets for other drum kits. I did play with the Aeroband app some, went to level 6 on the practice or learning with no problem but not really interested in much more with the app. I've seen comments both ways but for a guy in his 60's it's fricken awesome considering the technology and what they have created with it.
😎
My best advise is as soon as you recieve them, send them right back. Out of calibration too often. Who the hell hits a crash cymbal 6 feet in the air? Could not get through one song.
Pretty awesome 🤘🫀Love your videos 🖖Keep up the great work 🙌
Mine arrived this morning. Thanks for the 10% off ❤
And let me guess, they're terrible? It's OK you can say it. I too fell for these stupid videos, mainly 66samus who I've literally lost all respect for. How any self respecting musician can lie to their followers like this is beyond me
just let them get the bag it really ain't that deep @@philkasafir.
I really like how portable it is!
Невероятно классно 💯🎉🎉🎉Ты как всегда, Бесподобна 💯
This is so cool! 😄 Right now with the discount it's $143.10 + free shipping in U.S.
Your English is getting really good👍🏼👌🏼
❤congratulations 🎊 your so awesome and your English is really good,better than when you started ❤
Excelente video, te felicito!!
Interesting. Thank you!
Nice drumming kriss... 😘
Congratulations from Brazil, 🇧🇷✌️
Huh, you make some solid points! Under $200 to have something usable and portable is nice. I'm not too familiar with MIDI anymore(use it or lose it, 😅) but is it possible to add more audio depth to the hits? They sound a bit.. same-samey and very digital, especially when just demoing how the product works. It definitely sounds better through the DAW, but it still seemed a little flat with some electric crunch. Thanks for any help!
Thanks to Kriss here, I just picked up one of these today on sale off Amazon (Aeroband is doing an anniversary sale) and Aeroband's website says the Pocket Drum 2 Plus includes a USB-C to MIDI cable. That implies I should be able to run the MIDI cable directly into the Roland Integra-7 in my studio, and play the amazing SuperNatural drum sounds I've programmed into it, right out of the box (without a keyboard, a drum pad or an electronic kit)!!
MIDI is just an instruction set. It tells a digital instrument what notes to play, how to play them, how to modulate them, etc. It doesn't make sounds on its own. Sometimes you can still change the sounds, if they're programmed to respond to MIDI modulation. But my guess is you can't alter the onboard samples for the Pocket Drum using MIDI, they're baked in as-is, but you can use MIDI to route the Pocket Drum into the drum module or virtual plug-in that you prefer, and trigger those sounds as you would the factory patches.
Okay, I put some time in with the Pocket Drum 2 Plus. It's really fun!!! I'd say the biggest downside is that the pedals aren't velocity-sensitive. The USB MIDI cable outputs from USB-C and inputs from USB-B. I plugged this into a DoreMIDI UMH-21, which takes a class-compliant USB MIDI signal and converts it to standard five-pin analog MIDI In and Out. I ran the MIDI cables into my Roland Integra-7, and was ready to rock.
The built-in samples aren't bad at all, but once you've got some badass, well-produced samples being triggered, it makes air drumming even more fun. I tried out a bunch of custom acoustic and electronic drum kits and had a blast. I also assigned a simple scale on a glockenspiel sample set to the various Pocket Drum pieces, and also tested the Pocket Drum with ethnic percussion sets and symphonic timpani drums. It's really enjoyable being able to play basically any percussion part in the air, on the spot.
I'm definitely going to keep the Pocket Drum 2 Plus. I think it's probably the best product of its kind (using accelerometers and gyros to determine which drums you hit, and how hard). The next step up would be Aerodrums (which is confusing because the Pocket Drum 2 Plus is manufactured by Aeroband, and Aerodrums is their own company).
Aerodrums requires a computer host, and it uses a Sony PS3 Eye camera with a lamp on it to watch reflectors on your (real) drum sticks and feet, and as a result it provides a lot more nuance in your air drumming than accelerometers can achieve (including being able to gradually open the high hat, which is very very cool). But Aerodrums comes with a bit more involved of a setup (laptop/desktop, camera, lamp, camera stand), whereas the Pocket Drum 2 Plus is ready to go, as is, any time, and as such I think it's going to be a handy tool in the studio and a head turner on stage.
I have Aerodrums arriving on Sunday. Thanks to the Pocket Drum 2 Plus, my musical horizons have broadened!!!
Holy Sht Kriss You Kan Travel Vlog Now and Still Stream!!!
even as a tech guy who has always kind of kept up with things...THIS blows my mind lol..Really cool..
Can this output to a mixing board/PA? It would be amazing to see a live band with a drummer playing “air drums.” Probably not quite there with technology, but a few iterations down the line, the reliability of signal might be solid enough to do without fear if signal loss. Great job! Peace!
Freaking awesome got to have it
Just got mine. I’m in no way a pro drummer but I played a 7 piece set in a garage band for bout 2 years. I cannot get the system to hit the right drum even after calibration several times. It’s probably me but seems I hit the snare and I’m somehow hitting the crash same time.
Nope it’s defo not you bud. These things are basically crap
Same issue here. Sent mine back.
I see this complaint a lot. It's not just you
Thanks, Kris!
Buying this for my office desk! Thanks Kris and hope all is well!
That’s cool! 🤘🏻🥁😎
Wow!! That is so cool. !
Sounds cool 🤘😎
That is nice to learn
Wow I thought you were playing air drums along with music but you are really playing the drums that's awesome, technology is crazy
Does it work for dynamic playing as well? What about ghost notes?
I hate learning more. But your special. Teacher
Go! Girl! Girl! 🎉
Wow, that's not bad, I may just get me one of them kits, Thanks Kristina, i have never seen this before. 😘
Please don't. Save your money.. it's a massive scam. Aeroband sues any youtuber who is honest about the product, what does that tell you?
@@philkasafir. LOL, how can they sue anyone for being honest about THEIR product 🤣🤣🤣
there's a few videos on it, drummers have returned the product many times because they're basically told they're not allowed to say anything negative. That's why all these respected drummers have sold out, aeroband pays them to kiss their ass in videos and it really pisses me off.
@@philkasafir. I don't doubt they get paid for positive reviews, its called advertising....As for negative reviews, that is an opinion, as such,there is ZERO grounds for a law suit. I think you been on "social" media a little too long mate, you need to get out and get some fresh air.
2:27 -- can you do a video showing how to connect to Garage Band and show the drum kit on the screen? Also, can you show how to connect the PocketDrum to the Mac (cables, settings, etc.)? I tried to connect it but it won't connect on my MacBook Air.
You're awesome 💯💫
How does this compare to the Aerodrums technology. That one seems to be a bit more reliable can you advise .?
Ohh, I need those guys 😊
I love this
Amazing! 😮
Very Nice!! Crazy... 👌✌️👏
Не хватает только очков дополненной реальности в комплекте, чтобы видеть где что стоит.
Пушной давно играет на невидимых барабанах, не ожидал, что кто-то сделает на этом бизнес и действительно выпустит такие)
У меня тоже была эта идея, я уверен, что Apple уже что-то имеет в виду.
Kristina Top Mega Rok Video🤘😎🎸
Excellent!
Interesting tech awesome drummer by the way your covers are really good
Is there a headphones jack? Or can it connect to Bluetooth ear buds or earphones? Hope so lol
Mac user here, as well. Glad we are on the same page.
В моей школе в Израиле есть факультативный класс, вы можете выбрать стиль урока, вы можете выбрать, какую специальность вы хотите изучать, я выбрал музыку, игру на барабанах и электрогитару, и теперь ты объяснила весь принцип этого. . И я поняла, что ты, несомненно, самоя талантливая и понимаешь главное в музыке. Я люблю играть на барабанах и ты необакнавеная и крутая я очень люблю слушать твою игру на барабанах твои навоки и невероятные спасобнасти увликають и ты потисающея да здраствует рок-н-ролл. 🤘😜😂💜💜
❤grettings from Colombia
Great idea for a video
Super cool!
I tried these and just couldn't get them to work properly. I ended up getting a small tabletop drum pad kit which is way better for me and actually paid less for it than the aeroband product.
Прикольный инструмент, спасибо за обзор
Damn, that's coooool! I love playing with instruments, but go rid of my electron drum kit due to space and sound.
I need it!!!
Wow, Kriss, this is awesome! Thank you for sharing it! 😎
I can air drum with my imagination, air guitar as well but not for real, good job Kriss!!!🤘🏻🤘🏻🤘🏻🤘🏻
Will you do a cover with these???
You need to get Pantene as a sponsor
wow it so cool😳😳
No idea this exist...Added to cart!
Don't waste your money on it. Doesn't calibrate at all. Doesn't work worth a crap. Comes with the most confusing set of instructions I've ever seen. I've watched several of these tutorial/review videos of this product. And I got my hopes up because I trusted yall. Kristina, Cooperdrummer, and others. And now that I've tried the product myself, I can say there is absolutely ABSOLUTELY no way these videos of these people drumming perfect drum beats with the pocketdrum sticks are legit. No way. Sorry Kristina. I love your videos and love watching you. Same with the others I've watched. But I'm calling BS on this video. The product just won't stay calibrated past a few measures. When you hit a cymbal the first time then go back to hit it the second, its never in the same spot again. Overall its just a piece of crap product. I'm hurt that you and these other youtube drummers would recommend and say this is a decent product when its 100% obvious its not.
Yep. They are very very terrible. Way out of calibration after only a couple hits. Very disappointing.
Love you
N hard u rock.
Can you add an additional crash to make 2 crashes and a ride...
That is the coolest thing I ever saw!!!! I got a pad and sticks with plastic tips when I was a kid!!!!! The pad sucked!!!
Niice 👌 thats pretty cool
Ok the sound quality / the Samples are may not the best but you added some other thats sweet
But i would Connect it to a amp 😅
One thing I really respect about her is that she’s pretty but you can tell she actually is passionate about her craft and feels what she’s playing . I think that a lot of “musicians” use their instrument as an egotistical prop instead of a means of expressing what they’re feeling. You can tell when someone has it and when someone doesn’t, she has it.
Fair enough point you raise here with regard to the many an attractive player clearly seem to lean on their looks to help boost their viewership, and it's clear this drummers passion is so much behind her uploads and lessons that she clearly overlooks her own looks as any kind of additional pull to her channel. My own view though is , and as a super keen drummer, her looks isn't and wasn't a factor behind my viewing her work. The merit of musicianship and potential to learn is why I'm here. Mad so her looks are inconsequential for me just as another drummer with equal valuable lesson uploads but who could be deemed less attractive is only judged by me regarding the merit of their lessons and the like. She teaches me new things that I can add to my playing, she gives keen insights that show an expertise of knowledge and looks just don't come into the equation. That said, I agree with your point when regarding certain other channels that clearly market the individual rather than the knowledge of said individual. Essay for disregarding, like sharing thoughts haha
What about hihat in double bass mode? Is it still there? Does it sound open or closed?
My model is 2 plus, with 2 connected pedals, when connect to bluetooth midi in GB, the pedals had no sound, how should I do, please help. Thank you.
Если бы только мы все могли быть такими же крутыми, как ты 😎👍🏼😆😆😆
Different kind of amazing
Cool!
are you able to import your own drum sounds?
De reo speedwagon take it on the run ..podes tocarla❤?
Hi Kriss
Уже больше 20 лет не держал в руках барабанные палочки. Было дело, занимался в конце 90-х начале нулевых.
Прикольная фигня, но я так понимаю, с ограниченными возможностями. Каким образом на этой штуке можно выбить 32-е?)) Как делать двойки, если нет отскока?)
Hahahaha LOVE IT!
Фантастика💫
can you configure it for left handed?
What software to record did you use ?
IMBATÍVEL..INDESCRITÍVEL 💥
Your a great drummer.
I got a set (for free luckily) and I’m sorry but in my experience and others they don’t play as shown. I am not sure that what you showed us is live sound. It’s obvious that on a drum set you could play that exactly but the sticks don’t work that well especially with fast movements. You can hit the floor Tom in exactly the same spot and get the sounds (Tom,Tom,rider,Tom,rider,rider,Tom) the hihat to crash is even worse. Good product just slightly over priced at this point but it’s so close to be a killer product
Increíble 🤯
Combined with VR/AR glasses, the experience will be really better.
I actually like mine
Cool ❤
Hey hey, nice video, thanks!. I bought it like few months ago, and im struggling to use them and play this same session, because it seems I make quick movements that my sticks got sort of lost together and I have to sync them again. Is there anyone else with this same issue?, should I get a new pair instead?
@kriss_drummer I think someones trying to scam your network?
No one is trying to scam the network. What pisses me off is that very credible CZcamsrs like this lovely lady actually endorse this shit. These are totally NOT the answer…
Nope DO NOT get another pair. You’re experiencing what most unfortunate people have had buying this crap… it just doesn’t play like the video. Don’t be fooled - there is NO WAY you can play as fast and as cool as the video. Simply cannot take the speed or complexity… honestly a basic drum pattern is all you’ll get, kick, hi, snare, crash. That’s it. Try and play double snare and more than two crashes in a song and the whole thing goes “yeah really? No fucking chance”
There is a guitar version too, don't know how good it is, gonna search for a vid now.
The only real thing I can see this being used for is busking on the street , where bring out a 4piece kit is just a headache !
We truly live in the future :O
So how are you supposed to hear it than? Play it through a speaker or amp or something?
Love her she so beautiful an amazing ❤ rock it
Incredibly beautiful music and very interesting video.
Thank you Kristina
👍👏🌹🌹🌹💕.
Since MIDI gives the best results, or at least lets you get the sounds you want.... Can anyone recommend a good (possibly free) DAW either for PC or Android?
Since nobody has chimed in.... I've gotten a little further in my experimenting with these air drums. Cakewalk by BandLab is the DAW I am using.
You will also want to get signed up with Moises so you can separate the tracks. The Moises free version lets you sep 5 songs of 5 minutes each or less, per month, and up to 4 tracks per song. Works really well.
