BLIPS: Mike Sutton - Roland DWe Wireless Electronic Drums

Well, today, I would like to ask you, since you've been on the show, what's new with the Roland DWE Kit?

So DWE Kit is a acoustic electronic wireless kit.

The i- the idea behind it is we take a really ni- high-end premium DW E- DW kit-

Yeah

... using a collect- collector shell, and we install wireless triggers inside of it.

So you still get the nice look and feel-

Yeah

... of an acoustic kit.

Yeah.

And also the setup and ease of an acoustic kit with no cabling.

Yeah.

And then we p- pair it together with wireless technology for triggering that can go pretty far.

But we'll see.

We can go up to, technically we can go up, I think up to about 100 feet away from the drums from the wireless receiver.

But we tell everybody to keep it close just for line of sight and seeing normal triggering.

But, you know, it's a really killer kit for that setup.

It's the cl- the best feeling electronic kit you'll ever play-

Wow

... by far, 'cause you're, 'cause you're playing a real drum.

You're not playing a pad, you're playing an actual drum with a mesh head.

So it's not the quietest, but it's quieter than an acoustic kit.

So you still get all that tactile feel.

And you can always take the trigger out, put regular heads on it, and play a DW kit.
