I hate the cymbals. So no problems with TD-9, which I think sounds great, but just with the supplied cymbals.
As posted before, I'm a newbie and I'm just playing for about 6 weeks, but I'm getting the hang of it rather easy: probably to all you great drummers out there it means nothing, but i'm playing Motorcycle Emptiness by the Manic Street Preachers (with the 8th and double 16th semi-ghost notes) very much like the recording. Just a minor achievement in my progression
I think the TD-9KX is really, really great...but I don't like the cymbals. It just feels like I'm pounding on a metal plate with a rubber furnish. I'm glad I bought the kit with the mesh heads for the pads instead of the rubbers ones. In that case my new hobbie could have finished very soon.
I like the 'bouncy' feel of the mesh instead of the 'toink, boink' of the rubber cymbals. In my mind, the feel of the cymbals should be light, like 'ting, ting, ting'.
Anyone else feels the same? And, even better, does anyone have a suggestion which cymbals would fit me better?
