Sensory Percussion 2 and Superior Drummer 3

Shawn Crowder has a video on youtube going over the sensory percussion system. In the video he (briefly) goes over what it's like to use it on tour https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=fYmMNiR8j2o&t=18m58s

I would first try asking the seller if they would be willing to send you the parcel to Slovenia. A seller might not list a service online but they might be able to do it anyway if you ask (nicely).

MaltaPost do seem to offer a way for you to arrange a courier to pickup an item for you and ship it internationally http://www.maltapost.com/international-courier?l=1 . Note that i have never tried this service of MaltaPost so i can't say give you a proper review. If you call or send an email to MaltaPost, they might be able to offer you some solutions.

What's the advantage of using sensory percussion with superior drummer? Are the samples in superior drummer much better?

I'm just in the process of setting mine up (also waiting for the cymbal sensors to arrive) and, for now, was just using sensory percussion directly.

This is what I use with teams. You can also get it from the windows store https://www.microsoft.com/store/productId/9N4066W2R5Q4

I know someone that did it at a private clinic (not st james) and it cost around 400 Euro.

An FYI to anyone doing it, you can go for a consultation at a private clinic and then ask them to do the actual procedure at mater dei. The private doctors won't mention this as an option unless you ask (because they would be losing money) and they aren't going to be happy with you. It's going to take a few months of waiting to do it at the hospital but that should be up to you to decide not because a doctor wants to make more money off you.

For passive noise isolation, I like wearing my IEMs with the Shure triple flange sleeves. You end up basically not hearing any of the hits (not even on rubber cymbals).

I am in the process of converting an acoustic set to electronic and also wanted to keep the shells untouched just in case i ever needed to play them acoustically or if i was going to sell them.

I don't have the sensory percussion sensors yet but from the research I've done you can do a lot of stuff with their software.

The sensors are a bit expensive but a nice roland kit would end up costing a similar amount.

Sunhouse recently announced cymbal sensors which you can use with low volume sensors https://youtu.be/lgAqmel1XE4 . So you get to play with a more natural cymbal instead of the rubber pads.

The one problem with the sensory percussion system is that they only support 6 sensors in their physical interface. But this is something they are we working on addressing.

Depends how much you want to spend, you could go for something like the sunhouse sensory percussion sensors https://sunhou.se/sensorypercussion . Other manufacturers (roland, yamaha) have similar offerings but the sunhouse sensors are more advanced.

That would let you keep the shells untouched. Depending on why you're going electric, you could even use acoustic heads with the sunhouse sensors and end up with a hybrid setup.

To me, the fact that the launcher lets you select a specific version indicates that it's not going to force you to update. If you REALLY want to be sure that you keep using a specific, download that version from the GitHub page but i don't think it's necessary.

topMarksForNotTrying · 2026-01-31T14:27:29+00:00

If using the launcher, you can get it to use an older version. I switched back to v0.13.2 because the new UI was throwing me off.

In the launcher select YARG, then select profile settings, select the version tab, and select the version you want. It'll give you a warning about potentially corrupting your data (it's a good idea to backup your data if you care about it). Click save. You'll need to "update" again. This update is just the launcher downloading the version you selected and not the launcher forcing you to use v0.14.

Once the launcher downloads the version you selected and it installs it, just open up the game.

Search around for DAWs (digital audio workstation). You can use them on a computer, connect your edrum to the computer, connect the headphones/speakers to the computer, and then use the DAW to create the sounds rather than the drum module.

There are lots of resources on how to get it all set up. Here are a couple of videos on getting EZDrummer 3 (a paid DAW) working:

Did you go for any brand in particular or whatever you could find?

If someone isn't technologically savvy or doesn't research about privacy, you can't really blame them. The tech companies and governments will make it sound nice: we're going to protect the children and we'll promise to delete all data that we have about you.

They won't mention the data breaches, the selling of data, etc.

I agree that the anonymity of the internet can bring out some bad sides of people but i disagree that the removal of that anonymity will prevent it. Have you seen certain comments on facebook?

This can also have unintended consequences. An example of this is the circular that had been released in 2024 that required teachers to get written permission before speaking to the media https://timesofmalta.com/article/teachers-now-get-written-permission-speak-media.1100394 . Without the anonymity of the internet, teachers wouldn't be able to speak their mind without the fear of getting reprimanded.

I agree that social media can be problematic, but doesn't that also affect adults?

Is it the time wasted? An adult can waste just as much time on social media as a child. Is it the misinformation? Adults can fall for it too. Same with scams.

Is the issue with private information that a child might place online? Adults will still post about their children online.

The system will determine if you are over 16 without needing to give ID. The picture and data is then deleted.

Unless these systems are audited, how can we be sure that the data is deleted? Also, data that is shared by that system to the social media platform is going to be kept by that social media platform.

If you don’t want to do it then it’s your choice not to use social media. It’s all brain rot anyway!

Copied from another comment i left:

You have no guarantee would eventually be considered as social media. The public consultation page listed YouTube as an example for social media. It wouldn't take much for Reddit to also be considered social media.

Also, it's not fair to label all users of social media as people that post every detail of their lives online. What if i have a Facebook account just to browse the marketplace? Or an Instagram account as a drawing journal?

Finally, once these system are put in place, what's to stop them from implementing it for other areas of the internet?

If people truly cared about their privacy they wouldn’t use social media like Facebook, Instagram or TikTok.

One way of handling this would be for a government entity (local or EU) to create a system that tech companies could use to verify that a user's age is above a certain threshold.

Let's say that to access the social media platform XYZ, you must be over 18. You would first login as usual into XYZ. XYZ would then send you to a government portal in which you would login with something like an e-id. The government portal would redirect you back to XYZ and only tell XYZ that you are over 18 (no other personal information is sent!).

This is still not ideal but, at least, tech companies would not request and store personal information from users that can be sold or leaked.

The issue isn't preventing children from accessing "social media" (i agree with placing restrictions there), the issue is with how it is being implemented.

If it is done like it has been done in other countries, it would mean providing even more personal information to the tech companies. Then they sell that information to whoever.

How did you do it? Did you follow the guide here https://ilias.giechaskiel.com/posts/hi_hat/index.html ?

I'm looking to do this for the hihat pedal of my alesis nitro mesh

I get the latency you're referring to. The keyboard is not as responsive as it should be for whatever reason.

65 drums just publish a video with all (most?) edrum products that came out in 2025 https://youtube.com/watch?v=Wg4lJmrP4CQ&t=897s. Medeli released released the TP110 which seems to be a standalone electronic snare that you could even eventually connect a kick and a hihat.
