I play with a few blokes that are wanting to do some recording. Our lead guitarist is great, but I think he thinks we are all thier to supply him with what he needs and wants. I recently purchased a TD12 to replace my old DM4 Alisis kit and was very excited about my new kit. It seems that since I purchased it that the Guitar players feel they have the level of knowledge to bag the sounds but not allow me the time or freedom to edit them in a band enviroment.
Its funny how comments like " I'm not sure I like the sound of the bass drum!" A comment I have never heard when I played A-Drums. It seems as soon as you offer the variations of an E-Kit that you open up to complaints and unwarrented opinions
. What is it with Guitar Players that think it's all about them and what they think sounds best. I am not a metronome for them to play with. I am as creative as they are and want to be able to use the full functions on my TD12 for the betterment of the whole band sound. I think Guitarists are not comming to grips very well with drummers that want to add more than just a tapping noise in the background... Each time I go and play with these blokes I feel like I waisted my money on the kit. Once I get home and play by myself (diff to playing with yourself) I think my e-drums are the best things Ive purchased in a long time... I think it might be time to just enjoy my kit on my own. I hate it when the guitarists all talk about what would sound great with thier backs to you as if you are nothing that matters....
Just had a bad night and wanted to blow some steam out.... Thanks for reading
