I just saw the first vid. Seems like you have lots of fun.

Maybe we can have some barbecue squid some day my pilipino broda.

Pretty cool, although to my eyes it's just three kits that are really close togther.

It essentially is. Between the Pearl and Tama kits, the cymbals are shared. They share a china and a ride and the hat for the Pearl acts as a, X-hat for the Tama kit. Idea stolen from Mike Portnoy. Xp

The electronic pedal that is played by the right foot of the Tama kit is connected to the Yoki (electroninc) brain. The left china on the Tama kit is also playable by the Yoki kit.

So yeah, it is multiple sets and actually, I've had 2 students play the "outside" drums with me while I played my Tama. I found it easier to teach drumming this way instead of always trading seats or yelling across the room. This way, we also share cymbals as I don't have enough stands to go around!

Besides, the reaction you get from people who walk into the room to see that thing for the first time is priceless!!

Thanks for watching and commenting!
