DW Drums Eco-X Kit with 22-inch Kick Drum, Desert Sand Finish (Cymbals Not Included)

DW Drums Eco-X Kit with 22-inch Kick Drum, Desert Sand Finish (Cymbals Not Included) Review


See more picture


DW Drums Eco-X Kit with 22-inch Kick Drum, Desert Sand Finish (Cymbals Not Included) Feature

  • Shell materials provide increased high-end attack, while DW's X Shell technology offers unprecedented low-end response
  • DW drummer-friendly features like True Pitch Tuning, Suspension Tom Mounts, Proportional Counter Hoops and DW Heads by Remo USA all come standard
  • Includes 8" x 10" tom, 9" x 12" tom, 12" x 14" floor tom on legs, 5.5" x 14" snare; choice between 20" or 22" bass drum
  • Available in two durable matte finishes: Natural Bamboo and Desert Sand
  • Sustainable bamboo/birch hybrid shells from a renewable source; hang tags printed in soy ink
DW provides drummers with yet another sonic option, while at the same time utilizing renewable resources, that's ECO-X. They are big, full sounding drums with a huge fundamental, and all of the warmth, resonance, and attack that Collector's Series drums are known for. This DW Eco-X 5-piece drum shell pack not only satisfies drummer's needs with its huge sound, and full frequency range, but it also satisfies our need to be environmentally conscious. The unique hybrid bamboo/birch shells provide increased high-end attack, while DW's X Shell technology offers unprecedented low-end response. Plus, DW drummer-friendly features such as True Pitch Tuning, STM (Suspension Tom Mounts), Proportional Counter Hoops and DW Heads by Remo USA all come standard. It's a giant leap forward in shell technology and everyone wins! At DW, making drum shells sound better is what they do best. The X Shell technology all started with DW's foray into VLT, or Vertical Low Timbre Technology. They found that in experimenting with alternate ways to cross-laminate a shell, the tension on the shell could be greatly decreased if the majority of plies were run vertically, rather than horizontally. Just like a guitar string, the tighter it gets, the higher in pitch it goes. Drum shells must be cross-laminated for strength, so the idea of designing a completely vertical shell to achieve optimal low frequencies was never an option, until now—enter X Shells. The concept was derived from DW's popular line of VGE (Vertical Grain Exotics). DW had been laminating veneer in a diagonal orientation for a while, but had never considered the sonic benefits until Master Drum Designer John Good proposed it, "If we can mimic the effect of a complete VLT shell, we'll have created the lowest sounding drum ever." The first prototype was made and the result was a home run. Exactly what Mr. Good had anticipated, big, full sounding drums with a huge fundamental, and all of the warmth, resonance and attack that DW Collector's Series drums are known for. Cymbals and hardware not included.

Meet your new musical addiction: the KAOSSILATOR from Korg. Play it alone or add it to your rig for over-the-top, music-making mayhem. The KAOSSILATOR's user-friendly touch-pad lets you create musical and rhythmic phrases using any of its 100 synth programs, such as leads, basses, realistic instrument sounds, playable drums and drum patterns.

Choose from the 31 available scales, and play in any key. Lay down your groove with any 50 gate-arpeggiator patterns for even more KAOSS!

The Korg KAOSSILATOR

Meet your new musical addiction. Click to enlarge.

Innovative touch-pad control controls separate parameters along X and Y axes.

Features stereo RCA output and headphone jack.

100 Playable Synth Programs
The KAOSSILATOR offers 100 unique patches for you to play, from nautral instruments to synth basses and leads, including ten drum patterns and 31 musical patterns. Sounds include:

  • Preset drum/bass grooves with flexible effects
  • Fat synth lead sounds
  • Acoustic instruments like trumpet, digeridoo, sitar, and more
  • Tap-able drum voices
  • Extra thick and juicy basses
  • Complete chords with filters and other effects
  • Space-age sound effects to send your loop beyond the cosmos

Innovative Touch-Pad Control
This is what defines Korg's entire KAOSS PAD/KAOSSILATOR series, and what made 'em such a hit. You play the KAOSSILATOR by moving your finger around on (or tapping on) the touchpad, thereby controlling the sound. The parameters controlled by the X axis and Y axis depend on the preset (for example, a bass synth might feature pitch along the X axis and filter resonance along the Y axis).

Scale/Key Controls
It may not have keys, but the Kaossilator can still play a hook. It lets you control a full two octaves of notes just by touching the pad. To make sure you're playing in the same mode as everyone else, you can choose what kind of scale to use, from 31 different options. You can also set the root note, including flats and sharps, so you're always in tune no matter how wacked out you get on the effects.

Adjustable BPM and Gated Arpeggiator
To get the beat to your desired BPM, you can select a normal MIDI tempo or enter a tap tempo with your finger. The built-in Gate Arpeggiator repeatedly triggers sounds in sync with the tempo. The slider controls either the gate time or gate speed. 50 different gated arpeggiator types are included.

Loop (Phrase) Recording
The KAOSSILATOR can record and playback phrases and patterns that you play on the touch pad--loop style. During playback, you can play along. You can even add another layer to the loop recording. This process can be repeated, adding several new layers. Recorded phrases can be up to 8 beats (2 bars of 4/4) in length.

Portable KAOSS
Create some chaos anywhere you go. The KAOSSILATOR is eminently portable, weighing in at 5.43 oz without batteries, and with dimensions of 4.17 x 5.08 x 1.14 inches. It's powered with four AA batteries, for up to about five hours of operation. You can also snag an optional AC adapter for plugging it in.

RCA/Headphone Outputs
The KAOSSILATOR features a dual RCA stereo line out, for quick connection to mixers or interfaces, and a mini headphone out, for using on the go.

What's in the Box
Owner's Manual, parameter sheet, four AA "test" batteries
