My Equipment Recommendation
I’ve included a list of kits, pedals and sticks that I’ve personally used over the years to play CloneHero and are at varying price points. The links below are amazon affiliate links and they help support the stream!
Drumsets
Roland TD-17KV2
Current Drumset – I use on my stream, however, it is the KV version. This one has slightly better cymbals. Great kit, rarely overhits and doesn’t have much crosstalk. If there is crosstalk to another pad, there is a built in tool /graph to see which pad is crosstalking.
~ $1,399
Alesis Nitro Max
Newer version I owned when I got started. I had a Alesis Nitro Mesh, and seems that this is the update version. Great set and lasted me quite a long time.
~ $399
Pedals
DW 2000 Double Kick
Current Pedal – Great pedal with a smooth action. U Joint came undone on stream a month into use, however DW Drums swiftly replaced this with a new one.
~ $229
PDP 700 Double Kick
Used an older version of the pedal and lasted me a good amount of beating on mostly single pedal Rockband charts when I played RB4
~ $159
Iron Cobra 200 Single Kick
Good single pedal and definitely a step up from the stock Alesis pedals or if you don’t see yourself using double kick (which you should because it’s fun!).
~ $79
Thrones
Tama 1st Chair
Current Throne – AWESOME and comfortable chair. Hydralics make it extremely smooth to operate and the base is super strong. Has good bounce as well!
~ $219
PDP Basic Throne
Basic throne, however was a decent throne for short sessions.
~ $69
Sticks
Nylon Green Sticks
Current Sticks – Don’t buy these. They give blisters and don’t bounce correctly. But do look cool on stream.
~ $8
Zildjian 5A Green Wood Sticks
Pending Testing, but have great ratings and create a cool neon effect on UV lights.
~ $14
Vic Firth 5A Wood Sticks
Basic, Plain and Good.
~ $14
