    Whether or not I should trade in my drum kit into an E drum kit. Idk… Midi interfacing would be great. Plus the amount of different kits I could build or use just by downloading. Is it worth it?

      Do it. Dad used to have essentially a replica of Neil Pearts setup, while cool as he’ll to look at, it’s a pain in the ass to maintain and it annoys the shit out of anyone nearby.

      Once he made the switch 10 years ago to a Roland mesh E Kit, the entire houses demeanor relaxed. Plus it doesn’t take up an entire room, and you can swap sounds on the fly.

      Real kits are nice for live or jamming out sometimes, but you’ll get infinite more use out of the Ekit

        Well lemmy, I did it. I bought a Roland TD17-kvx. Thanks for helping me make this decision. Haha, I’m so excited.
