What is the difference between the Blaze Kit and Nitro Max Kit?

The main difference is that the Nitro Max Kit has a kick tower while the Blaze Kit does not. For the differences between the modules please the chart below:

My cymbal volume is low when compared to the rest of my Blaze Kit. Can I adjust the cymbal volume?

The Blaze Kit does not include individual volume controls for each pad. All drum and cymbal pads are velocity-sensitive and will respond accurately to how hard they are hit. However, cymbals should not be overtightened, as they need to have some play in order for the vibrations of the hit to reach the pickup inside them. If you believe that the volume of your cymbals is significantly lower than that of your drum pads please contact our Customer Support Team for assistance. 

The hi-hat "chick" sound is louder than the hi-hat and other cymbals. Is this normal?

All the drum and cymbal pads are velocity-sensitive, meaning the volume and expression of the sound will change depending on how hard they are hit. The hi-hat "chick" sound (i.e. the sound made when pressing on the hi-hat pedal), however, is not velocity-sensitive and will play at full volume each time. 

My headphones have a built-in microphone. Can I use these with my module?

Headphones that feature a built-in microphone have a 'TRRS jack' that may not work properly with the Blaze module. The TRRS headphone jack features an extra channel which may prevent it from lining up properly inside the headphone port on the module which can cause audio drop-outs or incomplete signals. Standard headphones which feature a 'TRS' headphone jack are required for a consistent and reliable connection.

What are the dimensions of the assembled kit?

32 x 46 x 32 inches (length x width x height)

Can the Blaze Kit snare trigger a rim sound?

This kit includes a single-zone mesh snare pad, which means there is only one zone to trigger - the pad, so it does not have the ability to make a rim sound.

Can I use a different module with the Blaze Kit?

The Blaze Kit module is configured to respond optimally with the included drum kit. You could potentially use third-party standard triggers, however, since other manufacturers design triggers specifically for different drum modules, not all triggers may respond as expected.

I'm not getting sound from my pads! What can I do?

You can reinitialize your module back to factory default. Power it on, while holding the + and - buttons. This will restore the factory settings, erasing any recorded data or changed settings, including user kits, the user pattern, and any volume, metronome, or voice settings, which will return to their defaults.

Can I create custom kits with this unit?

The Blaze Kit has 10 presets whose sound palette spans 120 distinct sounds. While you will not be able to create custom kits within the module, you could use the kit to control a 100% custom kit in a DAW via MIDI.
