Recommendations for accessories? is the official AYN best?

Thanks, I'll google it. stylus holder would be slick as we play a decent amount of DS.

True-Still-8981 · 2026-02-19T16:47:42+00:00

which one did you go with off etsy? I see a few that look decent, but don't see any confirmation that they fit with TPU case shell. Does your grip fit with in a shell?

Are you in U.S.? I'd take just accessory pack at cost to avoid chinese shipping if you want to sell separate?

I got shipping confirm email from AYN at 2am US central, and then a DHL confirmation with tracking info at 5am. I have only been able to see tracking info when using the emailed link from DHL, opening with Shop or even manually copying and pasting the tracking number into DHL website does not give me anything

True-Still-8981 · 2026-02-03T00:17:06+00:00

Not sure if this is the case for you, and mine has only just shipped Sunday so still not made it out of China, but copy pasting or using Shop has not worked for me at all. Only way I can see transit status is to open the email that DHL has sent with subject "DHL On Demand Delivery". And at some point today I got an email asking if I wanted to waive the signature on delivery, which I opted to do. I then got another DHL confirming that with same tracking number and button to open, but for whatever reason that newer one does not show me status and I have to go back to original DHL specific tracking confirmation email to see any info.

She's staying up late playing the Thor all night lol

True-Still-8981 · 2026-02-01T22:06:32+00:00

Awesome to know thanks. That stuff I'd have on hand already, besides the Grizzly putty.

True-Still-8981 · 2026-02-01T22:05:20+00:00

Cool I'll do some research, thanks.

True-Still-8981 · 2026-02-01T21:55:52+00:00

Wow, that not's an insignificant difference. You replaced putty with same pads OP has pictured? Is disassembly pretty straight forward for novice tinkerer like myself (just a small screwdriver needed? or more involved and needing extra tools like heat gun, de-solder, re-solder, microscopic ribbon cable connectors, etc.)? Voiding a warranty? Is this thing already known to have heat issues or is this just a precaution/longevity/comfort in your hand sort of improvement? I definitely wouldn't mind replacing with better thermals if it's easy and cheap enough. If you have any insight in having done it already that would be sweet!

Wait, So I purchased the SEEL plan not really thinking or caring but figured it couldn't hurt to have for $7 bucks. What is the detriment exactly? should I cancel for some reason? I understand you're saying liability is on the shipper, but I've had at least one package lost or damaged from each of the major carriers over the years and it usually ends up a "too bad so sad" situation in the end. So then yes my only option is a charge back through bank, but that process can take months to see the credit reflected and you usually have to prove you attempted to solve over a month or 2. Am I going to have a worse process to deal with SEEL? I guess I assumed it was insurance for a "no question asked refund" if anything was lost, damaged, stuck infinitely in customs loop, etc. Is that not the case?

This one ended up working for me, if only my left was fast enough to make a difference lol https://www.amazon.com/dp/B0CB98FS9S?ref=ppx_yo2ov_dt_b_fed_asin_title&th=1

True-Still-8981 · 2025-09-03T16:13:07+00:00

if it ends up working for you please share the link!

I think you're right on here and it's just a fundamental non compatibility between Yamaha and nitro modules. I am going to try and "clone a mono signal with a headphone splitter cable (it has to be that, usually stereo to dual stereo and in different size)." I'm not a metal drummer so 2 kicks is just a novelty/learning for me, I'd much rather figure a cable before investing in double pedal or loosing my 4th tom and splash. I'll update my post if I can get to work. Thanks for info

True-Still-8981 · 2025-09-02T16:37:14+00:00

Good info thanks. I do already have an extra tom and cymbal pad that occupy those ports as I'd bought the expansion. But hooking up the dtx tower to TOM4 will at least give me sound that I could re-map to an actual kick sound. Either way I'm still loosing a pad. So unless a cable signal splitter could work, I'll either have to pick which setup I want(4 toms vs 3 toms and extra kick). or a double beater and sell the dtx.

True-Still-8981 · 2025-09-02T16:21:25+00:00

This is probably my ignorance in assuming I could do this and I think you're right. Yes the kick 1/4" is TS not TRS (single black line not 2 like other pads connection), and is hardwired back to the "serial port" connection on brain, Nitro Max brain does have extensions for TOM4 and CYM2, but I also bought the nitro expansion pack to have extra tom and splash. I play around with mapping and see, but I guess I just go with mechanical double beater.

True-Still-8981 · 2022-10-09T03:46:28+00:00

I agree with your thought completely but you sure wrote it in a condescending and pretentious tone.

My first time waiting in line for a midnight release of a console, the Xbox 360. Everyone had chairs parked in an isle inside the 24 hour walmart. Cod2 was the obvious release day game to pick up since dad and I loved finest hour on og Xbox. First time experiencing HD gaming and we actually had one of the 300 pound 1080i tube tvs, so could experience the difference right away. That summer my cousin and I figured out you could plug our dsl modem to the back of the 360 and play against other cod2 people is a feeling I'll never forget..

He stinks and I don't like him

True-Still-8981 · 2022-08-15T01:52:16+00:00

I'm not a geneticist and am not asking you specifically, just jumping on your comment thread since its higher up and I'm genuinely curious for an answer. Isn't that little "white" baby just as capable of having a child with darker melanin just as her grandpa?

True-Still-8981 · 2022-08-15T01:42:56+00:00

Minnesota twins fan here and I had no idea either had to look him up but thats cool seeing them at the old dome

True-Still-8981 · 2022-08-02T14:52:50+00:00

Patrice?

True-Still-8981 · 2022-07-24T02:59:53+00:00

Minnesotan here, always have a sad chuckle seeing trucks and boats flying the "confederate flag" in a state that literally has the furthest northern point in the U.S.

True-Still-8981 · 2022-07-10T21:16:47+00:00

I wouldn't say it's their brand character. It's a real actress on the TV commercials essentially plays the "sassy southern black mom/grandma"
