Introduction Electronic drums have come a long way since the days of sterile rubber pads, which feel more like kitchen counters than real drums. The sound is better, the hardware is more robust, and the design is elegant and exciting. . The electronic drum kit works like the human nervous system. Each drum surface is equipped with a "trigger" that acts like a nerve ending. These triggers pick up the stick hit and send the electrical signal back to the module in the kit. This is effectively the "brain" of the drum setup. (High quality drum kits have a more complex trigger system for superior sensitivity and articulation).
To be continued The module then translates these signals into the sound associated with each drum surface. The module can store hundreds of virtual drum kits, sounds and even other instruments. Therefore, the drummer can choose a standard rock kit or Latin kit, but he can also program the snare to play the timpani sound, or program the crash cymbal to play the Glockenspiel sound. For example, Roland's TD30KV includes 100 drum kits and over 1,300 instruments. Add more flexibility with ambient effects and overhead mic simulation. In this way, the drum kit can also act as a sampler, drum machine, or percussion pad. The possibilities are endless.
