Why, in the first place, do you need to think about buying an electronic drum kit when you can buy bass drum sample packs and load them on your computer? The answer is obvious. Electronic drums are more accessible to set up than those self-loading ones, and you don't have to waste time or effort loading them up yourself. But this is where you need to think about the quality of sound they deliver. If you are buying electronic drums because you want to plug them into an existing system and not because you need a drum machine, you need to consider the different factors of each type of electronic drum kit mean for you
Do you want to hear a distorted bass tone? If so, by all means, buy yourself an electronic drum kit with an authentic bass sound. Electronic drums come in a variety of types. There are drum sounds that produce a low-pitched electronic drone, a dark and distant rumble, or a high-pitched thumping bass. The electronic drums that you are most likely to find on the market right now are capable of producing all three of these different sounds
Another factor to consider when you buy bass drum pedal sets is how "dense" or "smooth" are the sounds produced. Today, many electronic drums are designed to be very thick, while others are skinny and airy. Some bass drum pedal sets will even be loaded with spring reverb, which will give you a truly incredible and unique sound. If you choose a thick electronic drumset with complex construction and a lot of spring reverb, then expect that you will need a compressor on your computer to manage the levels of the different sounds it produces correctly. If you choose a thin electronic drum set with less complex construction and less spring reverb, you will not need a compressor at all
One last thing to think about when you buy electronic drums is whether the drumset is genuinely an authentic drum kit or not. Many electronic drum samples are recorded into a PC and then exported as digital WAV files. Some electronic drum manufacturers have a library of samples that they regularly create and sell on the Internet. These drum samples can often be used as a template for new drum recordings
The next item to think about when you buy Double Bass Pedal sets is whether the individual components are stable enough to withstand extended use. If you are using your electronic equipment every day, you should most likely get one with a built-in shock absorber. If you are only using the kit a few times each month, you can probably go with a non-shock-absorbing model. They are cheap and easy to install. If you are going to be using the pedal on the bass drum consistently, you need to consider getting a proper shock absorbent
The fourth thing you might want to consider when you buy bass drum hardware is how you intend to control it. Are you going to purchase drum stompers, handheld grip tape, or an electronic kit? Each of these carries its own set of benefits and drawbacks. For instance, most bass drum stompboxes will let you add additional effects to the sounds you produce, but you can also buy a foot pedal with a foot stomp, so you have a more "traditional" style drum stomp
Handheld grip tape is trendy with many bass drummers as it is easier to handle. However, if you plan to use your electronic kit a lot more than just once at most, then electronic drum modules are probably your best option. Electronic drum modules usually come with a foot controller, a hold button, a foot pedal, an attack time control, a rhythm knob, and a touch-tone control. You may also find other features such as touchpad synchronization, metronome control, and auto-tune
Finally, when you buy bass drum equipment, don't forget to look into the company behind it. Many companies make electronic kits of high quality, but others are notorious for poor customer service and poor product quality. To avoid wasting your money, read the details before buying anything. This way, you will know precisely what you are getting and will have no surprises later on down the road. So put some thought into your buying decision and choose wisely; the bass sound is essential!
