The drum kit components came in six separate boxes. Each box was packed carefully, and the components could have survived a nuclear blast unscathed given the way they were packed.

I live in Southern California, yet the kit components all arrived within a week from when I placed my order, and four actually arrived simultaneously.

I’m a novice at drumming, yet it’s something I’ve wanted to do all my life. I’d like to thank Eric for his excellent advice when guiding me through what I’d need, and I’m delighted with the high quality of the drum kit I ultimately purchased.

If you’re thinking of buying a quality drum kit online, I’d go with this company. They know what they’re about.

Well built stand. Works great.

I received and used my V71 module with my band. The module has a lot of new sounds taken from the DW Soundworks software. I like the color screen and the ease of using my laptop to make adjustments to the module. The V71 module is larger than my TD-50X module! The module works very well with my DWe Wireless drums and the DW Soundworks software. Well worth the money spent for this module!!!

Got some questions answered via chat - very responsive! Great deal and fast shipping. All the pieces arrived in excellent condition. Very satisfied with the purchase experience.

Look, you can buy software just about anywhere. E commerce is a big wide world, but it's mostly an impersonal one.

eDrumcenter is a pleasant outlier. Not only was the transaction quick and easy - and way cheaper than your big box music stores, but they personally emailed me to answer a question more thoroughly and completely - like within less than an hour right near closing time.

Software key was delivered insanely quick.

Can't say enough good things; they've definitely made a lifelong customer with their personal service and attention to detail.

So my rating for the VAD507 is 4/5. Erik and Edrumcenter is a solid 10/10. He took the time to answer all my questions and I have not doubt I got the best fit for my needs, which were:

1. Look like an acoustical kit as much as possible. (We do the YouTube thing, so wanted to have something that looked nice but still be quite for neighbors)
2. Multi-channel output to DAW. I want as much control as possible in post so this was a must. This isn't for live shows so 1/4" outs for each drum wasn't a concern for me.
3. Give as much realistic feel for the performer as possible
4. Was hoping to between $3k and $4k at the most. (obviously this unit cost more but was the only thing I could find that covered the first 3)

Considering all the different brands and features, this was really the best option. It plays great and gives the right amount features I needed. Module is fairly easy to navigate although Roland could do better with the documentation. I have a couple of tree's worth of manuals but only because the few sentences they provide are written in every single language on earth, and maybe a few more like Elvish and Klingon. It's nuts... I still had to go online to figure out some stuff. But that's the way everything is these days.

USB to Mac OS works great. Using a USB feed frees up 9+ inputs on my XR-18 mixer too. I can combine the XR-18 (16 inputs) with the 28 channels from the TD-27 at the same time into Logic. I'm very excited for this.

My only complaint is the cost. I just think for this price, the shells could be larger like the 7 series and/or offer some color options. I really don't like the black sparkle. That's just me, but I'd love a cherry red or navy blue set. The hardware is fine though. Very sturdy and will no doubt last forever.

The VH-14D hi-hat and CY-18DR ride are crazy cool. Very impressive!

With that being said, the features and playability is great, it's covers all my needs and 90% of my wants.

Edrumcenter is now our go-to store for all our e-drum needs.

Excellent service, fast shipping, great prices, and everything arrived in perfect condition! I can highly recommend them.

Excellent service, fast shipping!!

My KD10 foam pad was promptly shipped and installed securely to replaced the old one. Quality product!

Use it for a crash and it triggers great.

Quick shipping. Item in like new condition. Packaged well.

Staff here is second to none in their knowledge of what they sale. Super friendly and easy to work with. Truly a remarkable experience when it comes to purchasing anything e-drum related.

Works perfectly!! No issues as of 2 weeks of use!

This is a great Hi Hat Stand. To be honest, it has probably been 25 years since I have used a Hi Hat Stand. All of my E-Drums have had one-piece Hi Hats with pedals, but no real HH Stand. When I upgraded to a more real HH type of E-Cymbal, I needed a stand. (And, I hated dealing with traveling pedals.) I had a stand in mind, and when I talked to Erik, he had another suggestion for me. Thanks Erik, your suggestion was perfect. The stand is everything that I would need in a HH Stand (Semi-lightweight, but Sturdy - Adjustable - Reliable, - and just Fun to play.

I was so excited to find out that I could use these on my Roland TD-11 kit. That one piece hi hat thing made all of my drummer friends not want to use it. Being that I'm a guitar player, songwriter, and producer, I used them recently in my home studio with the TD-11 triggering EZDrummer 3 and they were plug and play and ready to go!! I'm definitely going to be using more real drummers on my productions now because of these hats.
