Hello -
Pretty new to e.drums here, but I'm prepping to plunk down the 3k+ for a new set of V-Pro's/TD-10. Just a couple questions maybe you guys more familiar with all these toys could help me out with ...
Which kick pad set up produces less noise/vibrations? I live on the 3rd floor of an old apartment with creaky hard wood floors and therefore have some concern with how much noise is actually made. Stalking some of the old posts here it seems the KD-7 might present a problem - or do you guys think with the right padding/foam/carpeting it can be made workable? (AKA not get me evicted)
Hrmm other useless semi-info that might help - I play heal up(Dave Weckl-ish,) rock/metal music & have a dw-5000 double pedal from my long lost acoustic kit stuffed in my parents basement
...
The Guitar Center near me has both pads set up, but they are on top of this 8" high metal boiler plate riser - looks spiffy, but KD-7 sounds like someone is molesting a trash can! Testing them out for myself wasn't effective there.
So that leads to question #2, any of you Chicago area people have suggestions on stores to deal with for my final purchase? All things being equal I prefer a live person vs online.
Thanks in advace for any input!
