The Yamaha EAD10 makes social media content creation for drummers a breeze. The kick drum trigger sensor is accurate and the microphone held in the same sensor picks up a good representation of the kick, albeit, if your ride cymbal isn’t sitting right above. The presets are fun and inspiring, making practicing on the kit fun again. No matter your skill level, the EAD10 will bring new joy to playing the drums and increase content creation productivity.

#YamahaEAD10 #EAD10 #EAD10review - Hudba
I bought this when it first came out yrs back..I still use it for my drum videos and it still works killer..these are built to last,and super stoked I spent money on this…so worth it
Good to hear!
Had mine for ages, absolutely love it
I've been using mine, which I bought very early, and still enjoy it. This is a great video because it highlights the pluses AND the minuses. One item I did run into while using it as a practice tool with mesh heads and triggers. If you have a technical issue, as I did, the best Yamaha does it refer you to a local repair service. In my case this turned out to be quite inadequate as they knew nothing about the unit. I spent a not insubstantial amount of money and the problem was not fixed. I'm not sure what I'd recommend. Perhaps a Yamaha facility where a person could send the unit and have the problem diagnosed and repaired.
very nice review. Also sweet studio set up!
Thanks! Just redid it recently. Cheers!
Thanks for sharing all the great info! I just got one that was bundled with an additional Yamaha DT50S snare trigger and I’ve been loving it. I’ve been amazed at how much fun it’s been just playing around with some of the presents - I haven’t even tried recording or dialing in any sounds yet, I’ve been having too much fun just trying it out. Haha it’ll be fun learning all it can do.
What do you use the snare trigger for? I have the EAD and am not sure if buying the trigger adds anything really
@@scipiomexicanus2068 the extra trigger isn’t essential but it has been nice to have for the independent control it gives you over the reverb, volume, and intensity of the triggered snare sound. It also noticed it gives you the possibility of having two different triggered snare sounds based on if you hit the drum head or the rim. That was cool to realize. I got the extra trigger and mount as part of a bundled deal that was on sale at DCP - so I couldn’t pass it up. It’s been incredibly fun and inspiring so far!
Love my EAD10! Got a sick score on a used unit a couple of years back for around $200. Had no idea about the Yamaha app though. Definitely gonna check that out
Dope 🔥
The trigger inputs support 3 zone Yamaha TP70S trigger pads or you can use a splitter and run 2 single zone pads off of each trigger input! Also, the mic is a stereo pair providing some separation of left and right channels when listening or recording. The EAD10 is a one of a kind, all-in-one unit for practicing, recording and live performance. Not the greatest results for every situation, but pretty damn good for most and it's relatively inexpensive and super easy to use! I've had mine since 2018, use it everyday and love it!
It has a bass trigger and 2 (two) condenser mics. I bought 2 more triggers for the snare and the floor tom, but with some tweaking I find I don't need either one. For larger gigs I add a traditional kick mic and maybe a snare mic so the sound man can adjust for the front of the house.
I just got one this passed week. Have a couple of videos up with it. Overall im digging this product A TON. The Rec n Share app is not great to say the least however .
Great video reviewing it dude.🤙🏽
awesome rock on, appreciate the kind words!
@@NickCesarzDrumscan I use one without acoustic drums on mesh heads and still get an okay sound?
that note on the rubber hoop is so real
“For live, not so much…”
Why? I’ve used an EAD live for years with great results. Works especially well with bands that use in ear monitoring. I do like to add a kick mic so FOH can isolate the bass drum into the subs. The EAD kick trigger is the weak link, IMO. A designated bass trigger that attaches to the head would yield more consistent results.
For in ear monitoring, yes it works great for drummers bringing that on their own, but I've never seen FOH engineers using the EAD10 in clubs or theaters instead of traditional mics. And in even smaller rooms, you don't even need to mic the cymbals, so I don't see the point of capturing the whole kit. Just kick, snare, toms, all you need.
@@NickCesarzDrums You should look harder 😂. It’s not just great for monitoring the drums, but wedges bleed into the EAD mics. Eliminate the wedges and all is fine. I know of many drummers who use them in clubs and bars. I’m one of them!
It’s great for playing live
I placed mine on the front hoop, works for me..
get some locktite for that rubber piece it will never come off again . ill be doin that when i purchase mine after watching this video , great stuff :D
Thanks, good suggestion!
I know I would need to alter the bass hoop somehow but I wonder what a traps single head kit would sound like through the ead10
7:39
you could play the way you make feel with this haha
thanks for the detailed breakdown! I have a question, can the rec and share app be use directly on an eKit, without having the EAD?
I haven’t tried it yet, but I think it would work provided you had a way to get audio into your phone
Alright, Ima throw something out there as a wild guess (And I may be totally wrong).
Your Tom setup you've got there is inspired by Roy Mayorga. Am I Right??? lol
Pure coincidence but damn they are close!!
Are there EAD10 best practices when on live gigs?
Why didnt you connect the phone to the aux in to play along to music?
Just bought this with the extra trigger.
Can you connect another device (tablet, phone) in the Aux In to hear songs while playing? Like for trying to record covers withouth having to edit them later...
Yes that’s one of the best features. I captured all the drum audio on this video with my iPhone which is the side angle
@@NickCesarzDrums
Hello guys! Does the module/motherboard record the song you are listening on your extern device(phone, table, computer) while covering the song and recording the drum part with the ead?
In fact, i just wanted to know if i can listen a song on spotify while recording the drum and will i have it (the backing song) recorded with the ead or will i only have/ear the drum part in the recording?
Thanks a lot and thanks for this useful video!
Cheers from France.
I need some help. You mentioned this needing the correct adapter to split the 2 model signals to the auxiliary port. Can you elaborate on that? I want to practice with my band with in ear system and we use a mixer. But want to figure out the logistics with using the module. It will help us out tremendously if we can make it work, thanks
The auxiliary port is 3.5mm connector, so you’ll need something like this if you’re coming from 2 mono signals: amzn.to/4aFyYFU
Just depends on your setup, can you elaborate?
@@NickCesarzDrums I’ll check to see what my guys have. We haven’t set anything up yet but the EAD10 is a resourceful tool. Thanks!
Hey, how is it when your playing with a live band at practice? Say a small room. Does it pick up all the other instruments?
You'll be able to hear them a bit, just as you would if you used overhead mics. It's not terribly audible, but you can hear the rest of the band. If they're not loud enough you may need to use an external mixer along with the aux in on the EAD10
@@NickCesarzDrums I’m assuming you can hook it up to your practice space mixer as well? We’ve got an X-Air 18 and I’ve got both guitars and bass mic’d up.. I just don’t use drum kicks because the space is smaller. It would be nice to hear the Tom’s ha
It doesn't work for quiet jazz, but then neither do any electronic drums. Clever and effective for heavy hitters in most genres though.
Youve got a nasty pocket, man. In a good way. and i mean "pocket" in the funk sense, ie you push that backbeat snare hit back and its got it feeling nice.
Thanks! 🙏
Bro has a nasty pocket too. I’m his roommate and when we do laundry he always has candy wrappers and old gum in his pockets.
@@LochNessAnthony Thats what I meant actually. I could see his pockets were full of gunk and filth. I was trying to be nice though.
I got it today but will it work with a Samsung Android , got the cables needed ?
Sorry, don’t have an Android phone so I can’t say!
Works great with Android
Bro, what cameras are you using?
Main shot is Sony A7S III with a 20mm lens (I think I have exact one linked in description). Side angle is my iPhone 14 Pro.
This lens amzn.to/4dPje5K
It’s either that lens or the 24-70mm linked in my description. Can’t remember which one it was
Probably said many times. Two mics.
Estepario is nothing without the ead10. You just cant get that type of compression and sound for all the stuff he does which if he micd it, wouldnt make him look as good clean or as he sounds. Truth is, his one handed rolls, and alot of tricks he does like the gravity blasts, would sound like shlt the way he plays them. He can only sound as good as he does, with the ead10. Its that guys crutch. He did some vids with drumeo that where actually micd, and it just sounded different
Cool story
STOP ZOOMING IN AND OUT when you're not emphasizing a point
Noted, trying to get better at editing so appreciate the honest feedback
