Ok, so I've had this $40 little kids drum set chillin in my studio. And I always talk about how you don't need super expensive gear to make a drum set sound good, so this felt like an opportunity to put that to the test! I tried recording a pro drum track on this super cheap little kids drum kit, and honestly I was pretty impressed with the sound! The toms sounded pretty sick honestly.
Thank you to the artists who submitted their songs!

    How did you think it turned out?? Let me know! Also, "like" this video if you think the kit sounds better now than it did before!

    The fact that this kit, after you tuned it, sounds not much worse than my pearl export suprised me. The difference you could get out of the kids kit with tuning was wonderful. I think i have to take the time to tune my kit better. I'm wondering how your kids kit would sound when hearing it in real life, or at least without the professional drum mic.

    Sick playing as usual and I think the first beat made for a decent result with that kit, but for Rock a 16 inch base just doesnt cut it no matter how fat your playing you will sound out of place. Honestly a good showcase of how much you can achieve with very little and what the limits are.

  • @tanner_titus

    You should give the kit away to a kid that wants to start rocking. If I were a young kid and won a kit that was my size (but had quality hardware on it) I would be so stoked and it would allow them to really play without it being limited by the fact that junior kits don’t aren’t always focused on quality. Obviously you can keep cymbals because you added them onto it, but an opportunity like that could make a child’s year. Obviously you’d have to figure something out to be able to prove that it’s a kid entering. It would be kind of sill for an adult to win it just to say “oh I won a drum kit. Look at me and how I’ll never use it because I’m a giant”. Maybe video entries? I don’t know, just a thought. Getting kids into music is almost as important as the music itself

    Hi man, very nice video 🙌 one thing you can do to have a more thick and heavy bass sound it’s fill it to the top with clothes or something and then get lose all the screws to the limit, and then give it from a 1/4 of a turn to a half of a turn and give it a try, but don’t turn them more than a half, the idea it’s actually kick the clothes or pillows you have inside the drum ☺️ hi from chile ✌️ I have a 13” bass drum and it sound killing with that system I told you jakajajajaja sorry if I have troubles with my English, I actually speak Spanish hajajajaja

    No disrespect intended, yet I believe what you really did here was spend well over a thousand dollars on additions to the kid's kit and recorded it with an array of far from inexpensive microphones. The extra cymbal, stand, and throne prices add up fast. The end product is a good sound, I admit. Still the video title misleads. I understand the motivation: more views.
