Reward Your Ears And Save
Your Back With An Electronic Drum Set
A New Electronic Drum Kit
For A New Age
Are you in the computer age or still
stuck in the acoustic music times? Some may call me silly,
but there are some things that just aren’t right. You
might call someone like me a music purist, though I’m
not even really sure what that means.
What I do know is that there are some
things that are good in music, but you don’t replace
them no matter how great the technology might be. If you
hear a band with an electronic drum set, I just can’t
get into it. The natural sound just isn’t
there.
Original VS Electronic Drum
Sets
There is just something about the
sound of a real drum kit that an electronic drum set just
can’t produce. You might think you can’t tell the
difference, and in some cases you can’t, but there are
times when the difference is glaringly obvious, at least for
me.
I believe I am partial to the old drum
kits because nothing is perfect, and as far as I am
concerned, there should be nothing perfect about drumming.
The electronic drum set is just too exact and there
isn’t room for the error that should be
there.
Why Do Some Musicians Love The
Electronic Drum Set?
I can understand why some people might
want to use an electronic drum set.
It helps to make sure things sound
good all of the time, and it cuts down On some of the
mistakes a drummer might make. The problem I have is that it
seems to cut out some of the personality of that drummer.
Each drummer, no matter how great they
might be, has a few flaws that appear in their playing. As
far as I am concerned, this is what makes them a good
drummer. If they are put on an electronicdrum set, they just
lose a little something that they had going for
them.
Whether Or Not To Use Electronic
Drum Sets Is Your Personal Decision
If you want to use one though, there
is no reason why you can’t. Some styles of music work
well with an electronic drum set. If that is the sound you
want, then you should go for it.
Where To Find A Set Of Electronic
Drums And How Much?
You can find them almost anywhere you
buy music, and you can probably find one made by almost any
company that makes drums.
What you will pay for a set of
electronic drums will depend on where you buy them. Just
remember that even though you may not have to buy drumheads
for it, you will have more repair costs associated with
owning and playing them.
They are also easier to work with and
move around, but remember that some people like me that just
don’t like to listen to them. But, as with all music,
it's relative and everyone has an opinion about percussion
instruments, right? d:-)
