Hi,
I know next to nothing about Vdrums. My only experience is, of course, banging away at the store.
With that said, the time has come where I can no longer play my acoustic kit since I am moving. Fortunately, my college graduation gifts will enable me to get an electronic kit.
I have two questions that I would love to be answered by those much more knowledgable than me on this topic.
1) I have read some of this message board and other various sites. However, I haven't found any sort of definitive or beginner-level information to read concerning electronic kits and electronic capabilities in general. In this context, can anyone recommend some good online reading?
2) In addition to practicing, my goal for the electronic kit is to be able to have my friend send me bass lines that he records on his Digital Performer program for Powerbook and then for me to be able to listen and record drum tracks to go along with his bass lines and send them back to him. I claim full ignorance on how I can achieve this. So, what equipment will enable me to do this.
I am looking to spend between $2,000-$2,700 I suppose for now. I will have additional money in the future, if expandability figures into any recommendations. As of now, I do not plan to use an electronic kit for gigs.
I am new to this board and am grateful for what I have learned so far. I hope I can take advantage of some of your expertise.
Peace.
Justin.
