Well, I must say, that I do like how the black drum tops look like sunglasses from a distance, and that is not a bad thing to see with one's eyes on a sunny morning such as it is.

I dunno...there's a certain Animalistic (pun intended) satisfaction that comes with hitting real drums really, really hard. There's also that satisfying feeling of browsing through music stores and garage sales, always keeping your ears open for the woodblock or crash cymbal that produces just the right sound that you'd like to incorporate into your kit.

Then again, the home-recording enthusiast is limited by space and budget. Certainly you can't be expected to get an entire brass or woodwind section into your garage. Perhaps that's a debate for him, then; to what extent do you sacrifice the authentic "feel" of creating music to the reality of the home-recording environment?

Don't ask me. I'm mostly talking out of my butt.

The latter reason is right on the money, as far aas what's appealing to me about the set. Also appealing is the option to practice at all hours of day or evening with headphones, but without neighbors' complaints! (And more importantly, without embarassment, as in my case..;)

But you're right...there's nothing quite like the feeling of wailing on a snare to funky groove; no other instrument gives as wide of channel of physical release. I still get the same un-erasable grin when I play on a real set.

For composition, recording, and space-saving purposes, though, an electronic set can have great benefits.

hello
i'm building an electronic drum set as a part of my electronics school project
I thought it would be cool to do something different on my project
anyway, i need a little help with the building and the whole procedure
so if you can e-mail me Nathaniel Andrew's e-mail address so i can speak to him and ask him questions it would be really great
or even someone else who has expirience with building electronic drum sets
so thank you very much
hope to hear from ya soon

Bravo! One thing ALL music fans need is cheap ways to git there kiks. Indeed.

I Can't believe this. I've been surfing tha web looking for ways to bend real wood drum shells and all I can find are links to buy them. But now I find this I'm defantelly gonna try this and probabally start in like 1 or 2 days. God Bless the person who made this info avaiable.
