Sensory percussion is simply amazing. Bought the whole thing at pre sale, which really saved me a lot, and it's the first time that i really enjoy playing / practicing / studying in my apartment. With previous e-kits the sounds, dynamics and feel were horrible.
The actual sound of the pads were just disturbing everyone in the building, was like hammering all the time, especially the kick, which led me to stop playing.
This is very quite with db Zero and had no complain. They hear it but everyone says it's like a gentle drum sound from far away.
The feel and the dynamics are unreal, almost like a real drum set. So even if you don't use the electronic/sampled side of this (which needs deep exploration) you can have it as a silent drum set to practice.
From just playing when i was rehearsing with bands, i now play every day and that make me wanna practice more even on the pad. I really enjoy it!

Glenn is fantastic. I honestly have to say this whole idea resonates with me on so many levels. Cost, Volume control, portability, flexibility, creativity, simplicity, expandability. I will seriously look at getting this setup. And finally longterm-a-bility. This will be around and relevant for a long, long time. Great video.

amazing

Very cool and glad things are moving in this direction. There will be no need to buy an electronic kit anymore ( unless you don't have a drum kit), just use your existing acoustic kit.

@8:05 they talk about the latency, and that's been a query of mine. I have heard various reports about it saying it's quite big to not noticeable. It cannot be instantaneous though, but if its around the 5-6 ms mark from strike to audio reception in ones headphones, thats excellent.

Save yourself a ton of money and get the Yamaha EAD10, Remo Silent Stroke heads, and Zildjian L80 cymbals. The only sensor is mounted to the kick and has 2 condenser mics built-in that capture the entire kit. I have 6 drums, 4 cymbals and a set of 14" hats). 2 Wires to the EAD module, tons of included kits, fully customizable. Plug in your ears and play! I've had this setup for years. Love it! Bought it all from Sweetwater...

I have a full set of Evans quiet heads sitting in the original boxes. They're no where near as good as the Remos. Plus the plastic strips on the snare batter are so fragile, they break all the time. I'm a 70 year old country music drummer...No metal or hard rock here...
