Well done Chris. You didn't to mention that all of the skills you are practising are exactly the same as what you would play on an acoustic kit. When people complain to me the E-kit is 'just not the same', I have to say, "No,it isn't. It's WAY better." Playing an A to E converted kit has made me a more versatile player. I'm sure you would say the same. I could never afford to buy a kit that sounds as good as my TD20, so I have to agree my desire to practice is greater now. Go the Left Handers!!
@Pr0294 No, just TD8. I had enough inputs for all the cymbals (two crashes and a ride) because I only play one rack tom, and then a pad on the side for a cross-stick sound which uses tom 2's input. No splitters necessary. Hope that helps!
I so want to build my own e-kit. Money is the problem right at the moment, though. Say, could one use those black plastic practice "cymbals"? They are really cheap in the drum catalogs I get.
@ransisua Without a doubt the PCY is better bang for the buck. I've had good luck with the PCY series from Yamaha but I haven't tried the RHH. I read the Yamaha and Roland hi-hats don't get along well with their opposite modules. I'd stay away from the Alesis stuff personally... I think it's built cheaply.... the Surge cymbals have fallen apart on many digital drummers. Two cheap modules such as two matching TD-3s would give you a LOT of input options, for probably $300 (for both).
@DrummerGrrrl Not worth it... too hard to turn into proper triggers. If you join the vdrums.com forum, you can get CY-8s (what I use mainly) for about $60 each, and that usually includes a Roland cymbal holder (the top part of a normal cymbal stand). Pretty cheap if you ask me. :) Good luck!
