The difference between Roland VH-11, 12 & 13: www.v-drumtips.com/roland-vh-13/
In this video, I introduce my custom e-drum set. These shells are from a Pearl Rhythm Traveller Drum set. The kit has a 2 ply drum-tec Series Mesh Head for the snare and 3 Ply Jobeky heads for toms and kick drum. The triggers inside these shells are my self-made Torque Triggers. They consist of R-Drums Piezos and Trigger Cones, as it is really important for me to have Roland like trigger response. The cymbals are exclusively from Roland. The Bass drum consists the R-Drums RTB Trigger Bar. I use 3 CY-14 as crashes, one CY-12 as a splash, a CY-13 as China and a CY-15 ride cymbal.
The hi-hat does not really fit in. It is a metallic grey Roland Vh-13. I should have kept my VH-12, as it was black and the response is 100% as accurate as the VH-13s response.My cymbals get a regular treatment with Dr.Keddo, which is the best rubber cleaner for e-drums in my experience.
A lot of thought and Hardwork went into that set up
65 Drums Thanks Justin. It was a lot of effort but also fun to build it:)
A lot of money too I imagine.
Paul TheSkeptic It would have been more worth it if he used stuff from the td 50 kv
And money
yes Justin your rite. it all matches. tho, id like to come up on pieces as i go, like in your set up, just a kick snare and hats, and a module. but i don't know why they have to match, if they didn't match, it would be a true custom kit. ugh, i love e drums, its just so overwhelming with all the different pieces. i am obsessed with electronic drums, tho its a very expensive hobby..
Without a doubt: one of best planned, best looking and professional e-drum kits I've ever seen. And your videos are still a benchmark. Great work!
Thanks Mike, I try my best to keep the standards:D
Yes, he stopped building his kick drum triggers. However, he still has some of them in stock as he told me. And he considers to start the business again. If you are interested in one of his kick drum trigger systems, let me know. I can make contact.
I think I paid around 230€ plus shipping.
Definitely agree. You are THE BEST electronic drum reviewer on the internet. Keep it up! I LOVE your setup!
It makes me so sad this this channel has gone quiet. Best V-Drum channel on RUclips without a doubt. I'm sure the creator has legitimate reasons for not uploading anymore. Hopefully we will hear from him again in the future. Thank you for the content you have already given the community!
Fantastic break-down of every part and thought behind it. Nicely done! Thank you!
Most ultimate E kit ever. The detail of the trigger set ups inside the shells is wow. You thought of everything with this kit. If you had to buy from a company. ..all this stuff new....20 grand!
Blake Gowan Haha, thanks:) Maybe not 20. R-Drums makes triggers that are not cheap, but I think the whole set new with nice triggers would be 4000€. You should really check the Blackbird kit, the guy built a monster e-drum set for 6k. Check v-drumsticks.com for an article. He is also on RUclips, it is a huge black kit:)

I appreciate that your videos are chock full of information, but are (relatively) short in length. Thank you for taking the time to edit them so well.
OUTSTANDING video and what an incredible drum kit!!! Your problem solving skills are through the roof!! I am truly impressed!!! Keep up the great work as we can learn A LOT from you!!! Thank you for sharing!!
Your kit looks amazing!
That kit is amazing!
Back again! This is so beautiful!
I built one of those risers for my TD 10 kit that have the reverse beater kick pad. Nice work on the video.
This is one of greatest e kit I seen. Man, great job!
Thank you! It took me a while to build it.
Beautiful set, build, and video.
Thank you. And the best thing, it was not even that expensive:)
Great set and the color is original!!
Lots of excellent information in this video. Appreciate it.
Amazing job, respect
Awesome and thorough wrap up. Great video. I'm gonna need to watch it a few more times to catch some of the details, in particular the cable management. Some very good ideas sprinkled throughout.
Hi Kevin, check this video for all details about the cables and the rack: ruclips.net/video/pBnfES2nxpc/видео.html
Fantastic work, Sir! Bravo!
Fantastic rig!
Awesome man. Congrats!
Love the video man. Clean kit too. Well done!
the cable management is superb
Sweet set.
Wow! That kit looks so awesome! :D
Thanks Daniel! :)
Great kit and great video!
Thanks Edu!
EVERY person that makes tutorial videos need you to give them lessons, yours are the best IMHO! I would be interested in your video production workflow, you make some killer videos.
The ATH-M40x are great phones.
Also, I have to say it is your channel that got me deeply into e-drums, starting with the TD-4, and now a TD-9 with the V2 upgrade on USB.
A HUGE Thank You for all you do!
Thank you, but there are still things that can be improved:)
I will make kind of a general Video that is related to drum covers.
Yes, I like the headphones too.
Cool, do you still have the files with the USB2 Upgrade?
Actually having a video on how you make videos would be great!!! Meta-tutorialing? Tutorial-ception? Name it your way, it would be really great ;)
I´m a little bit envy of your e-drum! :D Congratulations! Very beautiful!
Really hard to tell. I bought and sold a lot. Sometimes I bought full kits and sold the parts, but only kept what I need. The current value is around 3500$ I’d say. But I have not paid as much myself. It was also not bought like this in one go, but grew over time.
Nice job,looks real good
demonocus drumocus Thanks man!
Simply, good Job! Content well prepared. Thanks for sharing 🎶👍🏻
Thomas Michael Thanks Michael.
this is such a great channel. glad i found it years ago. Jealous of your setup dude!
maybe you could make some videos about where to find drumless tracks or getting into a band!
kiopl2003 thank you, glad you're watching:) I know the feeling. A few years ago I was looking at hufe drum sets in the same way. But thanks got I never took a loan and upgraded piece by piece. thanks for your suggestions
Absolutely amazing! :)
Man, you are such a V-Drum guru!!! Roland should hire you!!!!
KK Lau Haha, well better not, because I would loose my independence and could not criticise stuff anymore;)

This is possibly the best Ekit setup I've ever seen what was your first drum kit ever also how did you get the cool looking paint surrounding the drum heads
Also what was your drum kit like before adding all these awesome upgrades
Thank you. My first e-drumset was a cheap Fame Kit:) I wrapped the shells myself. I linked the video about that in the video description. It is called A2E conversion series:)
Check my 10000 subscriber video if you want to see my drum kit evolution:)
Thats insane. The drum module alone is worth more than my entire kit. I've been building a kit that started out as an Alesis nitro set, slowly adding components of Roland and other brands. My next step is to custom make a snare and floor tom from shells converted from acoustic to electric. I often scour places looking for deals on mesh head triggers and cymbals mostly. Still have a long way to go.
I started small too, my set grew slowly over time.
Richtig nice!! Cooles Video :D
Danke, hat viel Arbeit gemacht:)
Sheer GENIUS!!!! I wish I could hire you to build a kit for me!! You are VERY talented!!!
Just8 2Much I would love to build a kit for you. I think this would be my dream job.
Great work buddy!! I love the look of this kit. I had one of them drum kits many many years ago. loved it. The wrap looks beautiful and the trigger looks high quality. Congrats on that. Thnk you for sharing mate. All the best
Craig Budge Thank you! I like the wrap too, just sometimes think I should have taken the same effect wrap in white Color:) Why don't you have a set anymore?
Thanks for your reply mate. In my opinion I think you made the right colour choice. I think white would look great but that colour just looks amazing!! The pearl rhythm traveller kit was my granddads and he needed it back so I brought my own drum kit. Now playing the TD30K and I love it!! Dude I'm subscribing for more videos!!
Craig Budge Nice to know, I thought you gave away the e-drum set:) Thanks for subscribing! I am happy about every single sub:)
Totally over-engineered, which makes it basically amazing, haha. Absolutely incredible work. I always thought the Rhythm Traveler would be a good conversion project.
Whooow!!! Verry Nice!!!
Just PERFECT!!!!
Rebecca Forbes Well, there are some things I'd like to change.
Nice video man! :)
Man, that was an awesome, very well put together video about an outstanding, well assembled, sharp looking kit. I've been thinking about making my own electric kit. I bought the very first kit Roland released with mesh heads and loved them. I am not a pro, just love playing drums. After my first child was born I had to sell my Rolands and it killed my soul to do so. Anyway, great video and i love your kit. You did an amazing job.
Ben Mayo Hey Ben, thanks for you comment. I hope you will get another drum set soon. I think you can have both, kid and kit:D My set was not even that expensive, because I bought it bit by bit and resold other components.
Vdrum Tips I have 4 kiddos now, but I wholeheartedly intend on having another kit and I'd have to do it a little at a time. My 6 year old son would love them just as much and we could do it together for a little father/son project that we'd both enjoy. Thanks again for the awesome video. It really set that fire off in me that slowly dies down as life starts happening. Playing drums used to be my release after a sucky day at work and I need that back in my life.
I really want to try to try this especially during quarantine. Do you feel like it was more trouble than it was worth?
What a great E-Kit!, I'm making some custom electronic toms, I have question, where can I get the bottom rubber rims (minute 1:31?, thanks you!
this is perfection
Thank you.
Goddamn this is beautiful...
I wish I could afford something like this
Thanks, it was not as expensive as you might think. I bought most parts second hand.
*Awesome*
nice video man! you give me a much ideas to do now! ;-)
Have fun:D
It is amazing that it hasn't shrunk considering your kit is set up right next to the radiator.
Haha, the radiator is off for most of the time. But it is not ideal to have it there.
Nice job brother its one of the best and most beautiful conversion i have ever seen. One question though. Would this kit work with a pearl mimic pro sound module or roland is the only way?
Yes, everything is compatible with the mimc pro.
NICE KIT 🤙🤙🤙🤙🤙
This is so unbelievably german... great job man!
HES what can I say? Yes... Germans have the urge to build everything at a level of 120%. But the result is good. The set is rock solid and reliable.
No doubt about that. One of the best looking e-drum setups I've seen. Would love to have my TD-20 looking like this one day.
This is the first of your videos that I've seen but I very much like your thoroughness, logical presentation, and attention to detail. I will DEFINITELY be watching your other videos since I've been wanting to make a custom kit like yours. One question I have before venturing into this project is about modules. If you're primarily using the sounds in EZ Drummer, is an expensive module like the TD30 worth it or can you get a similar result from a less expensive module (Roland or other?)
Allen Ash Thanks:) Well I use EZdrummer for recording projects, for practice and jamming I always use the module. EZdrummer does not require much. A Roland TD-9 would be good enough. Superior drummer on the other hand required a better module with positional sensing, if you want to use all features. So it depends on what you want to do. My reason for the TD-30 is positional sensing, the huge number of outputs, the sound editing features and the volume sliders. But I would be happy with an old TD-20X too. It is a question of need. I NEED a TD-20X for what I am doing, but I WANT the TD-30:)
How do you get on with it compared to an acoustic?
I'm just in the process of getting Yamaha to build me essentially 2x frankensteined DTX-10's to make a 12 piece fully customised E kit with duel module.
Am not able to click on your demo for this cool product. Can you share?
GREAT JOB MAN! This inspire me to convert my Fame practice kit which has almost same shell sizes. Please tell me what did you use for the rim edge downside of the toms?
Keep on (e)-drummin'
gita soekanta I bought some special rubber in U shape from R-drums. But they dont sell this anymore. It is very expensive material.
I Like Your Drum
just WOW my friend! This is what i would build if i won the lottery, haha! Right now though i'm about to upgrade from my old crappy Medeli (ugh) kit to a TD11KV.
Well, you don't need to win the lottery:) Just always upgrade step by step and do not overspend.
Hey nice Set… from what Is the Bassdrum Made? 18“? From what Set? Thanks💪🏼
Wow very impressive video. I just subscribed. I'm going to look for a tutorial from you about triggering EZDrummer 2 within Logic. (my setup TD-15KV)
Jeff Taylor thanks for subscribing:) The tutorial is very old, but it can help. The TD-15 can easily be connected to a PC, so it is very easy to set it up:)
wait! *which* tutorial? Please throw a link here ---->
It is with GarageBand, but the same principle. ruclips.net/video/KpjCJT7r2qU/видео.html

WELCOME TO V-DRRUMS TIPS
also at 2:50, I plan on using software only, can software do what the roland module is doing?
why not use the pearl mimic pro module?
Thanks! I am beginning to put together a version of my e-kit but I’m not 100% certain where to begin. Any tips you could give me?
Just read a lot and do a lot of research:)
SWEET...
ich überlege mein 10/12/16 + 14" Tom + 22" Bassdrum Acoustic Set umzubauen, da ich in meiner neuen Wohnung leise sein muss und gerne um ein E Drum herum kommen würde.
Lohnt so ein komplett Umbau? Oder gleich Verkaufen und bei Ebay nach einem Rolandset TD30 Set ausschau halten?
Topzera
Does anyone know if these types of DIY pads work with other brand brains?
I subscribed
dude this is the first time I've ever thought an e-kit was "bad ass". if you threw a second bass on it, it would be insane
Thank you! There is a dude that has a bad ass kit with 2 bass drums: ruclips.net/video/SdcU8fwqJys/видео.html
Ein Tipp von mir: Du kannst auch In-Ear-Headphones mit einem Ohrschützer verwenden. Das ist viel Preiswerter und isoliert auch unglaublich gut. :-)
Looks amazing!!! It's a DIY? ( yes it is ahah) where can I buy the cymbals cleaner?
Thanks Arlindo! Yeah, partially DIY:) The link for the cleaner is in the description.
Great vid, you are as good as Drum-Tec and Roland together! Deutsche Gründlichkeit!
Althought I use aTD 30 too, I have two questions (being a noob at the technical side of things):
- How did you manage to have that amount of cymbals on your TD 30?
- How to get a proper foot splash on a VH 11? In my case it is not responding at all!
Thanks.
Jeroen Vermunt I just used all inputs of the TD-30 module. Just set up the VH-11 as per instruction. It should be possible to footsplash the cymbal.
Thanks, by the way, I just saw your vid '5 ways to connect...' Clear.
Hey VDrum. Your videos are amazing. This conversion is amazing. I have a question. I'm a Pearl e-Pro user and I'm going to give this away to a friend and get a custom kit made and start over.
So, my question is, if you can make up a dream setup without DIY. What setup would you use? What Snare, Kick, and Tom triggers would you use as well as cymbals and module? It's hard to go through so many videos on one specific thing. I'd rather ask a pro like you :).
Thanks!
Depends on what you define as DIY. For me DIY means drilling, soldering,... For others, taking a screwdriver means DIY.
My dream Setup would be a Roland TD-50 with PD-140 Snare, RD-18 Ride, VH-13 Hihat (Black), only CY-15 cymbals as crashed. CY-12, 13 and 14 as splashes, Auxillary Hihat on the right side. Triggers for the Toms, clearly R-Drums RTS. Bass Drum: Wronka Trigger. Pedal (What feels good for you). Mesh Heads: Drum-tec Reel Feel 3 Ply (They are the best meshes) Gear from Gibraltar. The shell set of a nice Pearl or Tama.
This would be the best of the best:)
Haha, yes, I meant the screwdriver DIY ;). The click-to-order stuff that you put together :P. I ended up going with all R-Drum triggers, even for the bass drum and Drum-tec Real Feel mesh heads. I'm waiting to see if the Pearl Mimic Pro is worth it and can utilize all the features of Roland cymbals. If not, I might go with Jobeky / Field cymbals and a VH-13 HH. So we'll see!
Jordan Stout Well, if the Mimic Pro struggles with Roland Cymbals, it will mostlikely have bigger problems with Field or Jobeky cymbals. They are not plug and play and require many adjustments.
Yup they are working on integration with piezo triggered cymbals. But the USB 18" ride won't be supported. :(
New subscriber 🤙🤙🤙🤙
I've combined a Millenium MPS-850 with an Alesis Turbo Mesh! Wanna see?
#Sweet!
6:34 I think it should be possible to replace the 9000's chain drive with a Sonor Perfect Balance strap www.thomann.de/ie/sonor_perfect_balance_pbp_strap.htm : certainly the Perfect Balance is designed so that the strap can be replaced by a standard 5000-style chain, so very probably the reverse is possible too. The Giant Step strap www.thomann.de/ie/sonor_gss_silent_strep.htm should work as well.
Leo Comerford Great idea, I will have a look and might test this. Thank you very much.
why do you not play at the end?
great job youve done man! 👌 but youre a german by heart man😂😂 i love your pronounciation of some words youve mentioned! but keep on going, youre great❤
Thanks! Well yeah... the German accent stays:)
But does it Djent?
Dude, Is it a 9 string guitar, No its not, So, Don't bother asking that question on a drum kit video -.-
"does it djent" is the new "that's so punk" and it's literally the lamest thing ever. Why do people constantly feel the need to associate themselves with some pseudo-counter-culture sub-genre? It's like a mating call for people who want their favourite little niche to be taken seriously, when it pretty much already is taken seriously. Irrelevantly mentioning it on everything you can is only doing damage.
Uh, I think it's a joke. Yeah, it's a joke. Ukulele videos, does it djent? Banjo, accordion, guy tapping on the table, does it djent? It's a joke. Lighten up already. I do admire your spirit though. It's very,... punk.
Un Tizio Bello Ciaoh Banano need more strings
I love how the replies is taking “does it djent” joke as the new trend. That’s hilarious. Keep up the stupidity!
how much money did it cost in american dollars?
What do u have at the buttom of the shell? Are those rubber? Where can i get them?
Lord Zee Those are rubbers and I got them from R-Drums. But I don't know where they have bought them. They do not sell them anymore. But these rubbers are perfect.
Isint the ATV ride better for a ride? i think you said it yourself its the best ride there is (analogwise) but i think it was AFTER this video
jezusmylord I have the ATV ride and yes, I got it after making this video. The ATV Ride is definitely nicer and looks cooler. The behaviour is also better than the CY-15, however, I have a little issue with it. A part of the edge zone is dead. The long term test is ongoing.
Iisnt that like a production flaw that qualifies it for warranty? @@Vdrumtips1
Great kit! How does it compare in price to say a Roland TD-50 rig?
Hard to say, as I bought most of it used. But it is definitely much cheaper as a TD-50KV.
I guess it depends on effort vs. convenience. I love DIY projects but my kit has been in limbo for a couple of years now, I can see the appeal of buying a fully ready kit from Roland.
Definitely, DIY means effort and sometimes thing doesn't work out. But buying a good trigger and screwing it into a drum shell is not really DIY for me. It is more assembling.
You are right, having a complete kit is nice too. Everything works out of the box.
Hi guys, awesome video! One question: I have a TDK-20 which is around 7 years old. I believe it needs some maintenance since the sensibility is behaving differently compared to when I first played it. I have read some material talking about replacing the cones, but I could not find anything more precise. Do you guys have something on that? Thanks for the great job and keep on druming!
Check this one:) ruclips.net/video/Lvrof45BHic/видео.html
I recommend buying the original cones from Roland support.
Awesome! I saw that video before, I will check it again. Do you think that old mesh heads can make an impact on the sensibility as well?
No, only when they are damaged. It is most likely the cones. You can restore the whole set for approx. less than 100$. Best investment:D
Best news of the week then :) Thanks again!!!
I thought you put in the letters PDX -10000000
Awesome set!! about how much did it cost you?
Justo Calderón That is really hard to say, since I bought and sold components during the process. I think normally would spend something like 3500 (since it is all second hand and DIY), but I spent probably much less.
That's awesome!
Ha, take that acoustic snobs, WE ARE EQUALS
We don't have to be equal:) We just need to stop being snobs:D
Sorry no way drums or ever going to equal real acoustic drums sorry buddy no way
haha. 'places where the sun doesn't shine'
:D
Which throne model are you considering ?
Emond Jeremie I have no idea yet. One that is solid and where you don't sweat so fast.
carmichaelthrone.com/drum-thrones-15/
I've been looking at this one for the simple reason that there seems to be "air" that ventilate the area that usually makes contact with the seat.
If I don't mistake Evolution Drum Gear sells Carmichael DT in Europe. I was discussing an endorsement for Off-Set pedals they produce but had lots of troubles getting in touch. I guess they are still a small company and have a hard time keeping up with contacts/customers (not sure of what I'm saying, it may have been just an unfortunate case).
Anyway they are very kind and the prices are reasonable for such good quality stuff. If you are in europe you may want to send them an e-mail.
what do you think about the mimic pro?
iheartcomps It is promising. I hope it works well in terms of triggering, cause I like the sounds. It has many things that e-drummers wanted for years, such as many inputs (more than TD-30 and 50) a modern screen, many individual outs and so on. It will have a big impact. However, the touch screen is a weakness and it misses positional sensing, but other than that, it would me an option for me too.
Considering all the attention to detail given to the construction and setup of all the components,how is a $10 Kmart throne still there?
Slicklickz It is a 30$ throne:D I replaced it with a very good Pearl Roadster Throne.
@@Vdrumtips1 I meant that you'll only get $10 for it when you try to sell it.
Hey friend, can I ask how much did it cost (in terms of money, time and complexity!)
Hi Rachel, it took many hours, but it is hard to say how many, as I filmed everything and you would not do this normally. The money is also hard to say, since I bought full drum kits and sold stuff, but kept other components. But if you would buy this kit second hand, it would have a value of 3500€.
Cost?
where can i find a video of you playing it
DW_Drummer It is mentioned in the video and at the end there is a link.
