Why choose an electronic drumset?
In comparison to an acoustic drumset an electronic drumset offers the individual regulation of the volume and the choice between a huge variety of sounds.
Less volume
By striking the pads with the drumsticks an electronic signal is sent out via cable to the drum module. The module produces different sounds like snaredrum, toms, bass drum and cymbals. When using headphones undisturbed rehearsing is possible, without annoying your neighbours!
What do I have to keep in mind when I buy an electronic drumset?
When you buy an electronic drumset you'll have to figure out what kind of drummer you are and on which level your playing abilitys are.
The equipment is important
If an electronic drumset comes along with less equipment the joy of playing won't last long. You also need to balance the amount of functions which are critical with the budget. Therefore it's important in the first instance to choose a reasonable, fully equipped electronic drumset, which contains a module with good drumsounds as well as click and rehearsal features. The D-Tronic electronic drumkits are perfect for beginners, who are in the state of basic developement, but are also excellent for competent drummers, who are in search for a second rehearsing drumset with ambitious handling skills.
What are the components of an electronic drumset?
Fully equipped with footpedal, drumthrone and heaphones.
Pads are rubber shaped reproductions of snaredrum, bassdrum, toms and cymbals. A well equipped electronic drumset, like the D-tronic set, also comes complete with headphones, sticks, foot pedal and a drum throne, so that you're ready for playing right from the start.
It's important to look for a fully equipped electronic drumset. Often a drumset is not equipped with all these features and there is further equipment in addition to buy. That's why a perceived bargain buy could ultimately end up more expensive than first thought.
What is important when looking for a good electronic drumset?
It's hard to recognize a good electronic drumset by the first glimpse. So here are three points to keep in mind:
Handling
Good handling is a question of many factors: comfortable adjustment of the pads, easy assembly and transport of the rack, smooth connection of cables and additional electronic equipment and, last but not least, solid quality of the most stressed parts of the set.
Sounds
First of all the "sound" is a comprehensive issue and always a matter of subjective taste. That's the reason why you should always play an electronic drumset by yourself, so you can listen to the different sounds to come to a final conclusion. Let your ears decide. Or the ears of your friends or trusted reviewers.
Operation
This point is essential, but often overlooked. The module should be intuitive in handling and should offer quick access to all functions. It should be equipped with large rubber buttons, which easily can be pressed with the drumsticks. This is significant to a good module, because it has to respond fast and be dependable during play.
How to assemble an electronic drumset?
Good assembly instructions should be part of every reasonable electronic drumset. Basically all pads can be built up similar to the toms of an acoustic drumset. All parts can be connected to the rack system. It is very solid and flexible to handle.
