More than 50% of new drums sold are electronic drums. They’re compact, they’re quiet, and whether you’re using them as your primary instrument or to practice when you’re away from your acoustic kit, they’re amazing for learning, rehearsing, gigging and recording.

If you’re just starting to play electronic drums, here are some tips to consider:

1. Get a good pair of headphones
Normal earbuds can disrupt the experience by not blocking out enough external noise. A good pair of headphones or in-ear monitors is well worth the investment.

2. Learn how to use the module
Instead of settling for the sounds ‘right out the box’, read the manual and look for video walkthroughs. See what others are doing with their module to customize and get most out of it so it’s a better fit for you and your playing style.

3. Use nylon-tipped sticks
While different tip materials and shapes can change the way things sound on an acoustic kit and metal cymbals, they don’t impact the sound on an electronic kit. But if your pads have mesh heads, consider using nylon tips as wooden tips could damage the mesh if they splinter.

4. Use a plastic or wood beater
Some people find that felt beaters can wear out a mesh bass drum head faster, so you might want to use a plastic or wood beater instead.

5. Be aware of your dynamics
For those who want to move back and forth from playing an electronic kit to playing on an acoustic kit, keep dynamic limb independence in mind. If you’re used to practicing on pads and want to increase the volume on one drum or cymbal, all you have to do is increase the volume. But when you move to an acoustic kit, as an example, you might end up playing the hi-hat or snare too loud. Try using just one side of your headphones and listen to how hard or soft you actually hit the rubber pads and refine your playing from there.

6. Be aware of how different an electronic kit feels
You’ll notice there’s a different rebound on an electronic pad compared to an acoustic drum. Most pads will feel the same from one to another, but an acoustic snare drum and acoustic toms won’t have as much rebound as each other, or as much rebound, period. You might notice that you ‘sound’ and ‘play’ better on the electronic kit. Keep that in mind if you’ll be using both so you don’t get complacent!

7. Make sure you know how to tune acoustic drums
If you’re used to just turning on a module and having your toms already sound great, and then you decide that you want to also play acoustic drums, you should develop your ear and practice tuning. You’re going to have a very different experience on an acoustic kit – where you can’t change the sound with the push of a button.

8. Be aware of spacing between the pads
If you’re switching between electronic and acoustic drums, you’ll notice that electronic kits are typically more compact and have less space between each drum. Set up your electronic kit with spacing that matches your acoustic kit to give you an easier transition.

Electronic drums aren’t only making drumming more accessible for more people – they can also provide you with endless options as your primary kit. Make it your own!

Host a Private AI Server at Home with Proxmox Ollama and OpenWebUI 121gamers 7 Views • 2 months ago

Building your own Private AI server is one of the most fun and exciting projects you can try out in your home lab environment. It is also a great way to learn more about AI, LLM models, and GPU passthrough configuration. Self-hosting and configuring your own AI environment is not as difficult as it might sound. Let's take a look at Proxmox, Ollama, and OpenWebUI, as well as Docker Desktop, GPU passthrough a my best practices and tips and tricks. I also show you what projects I am using Private AI servers for. Check it out!

How To Make Your Electronic Drumset Last Longer (7 Tips) 121gamers 10 Views • 3 years ago

In this video I show you how to make your electronic drums last longer :)

Can You Use Brushes With Edrums?

1. Buy a ROCK SOLID drumset. This can’t be overlooked. The harsh truth is that if you want a drumset to last 10+ years, stay away from MOST Kat/Alesis/Simmons drumsets. Roland and Yamaha are the way to go.

2. If you’re going with a mesh drumset, you WILL have to replace the mesh heads over time. BUT you can cut down on how many mesh heads you have to buy, by using CLEAN CUT drumsticks. A shredded drumset can shred a mesh drumhead. It can snag a head and slowly slice a hole right through it. I’ve done this. Check the tip too!

3. KEEP THE RUBBER RIMS ON!! I’ve gone without the rims on. The sticks will get damaged, and begin to hurt the mesh heads and the cymbals. The cymbals visibly wear faster, I’ve seen it.

4. The kickdrum is susceptible to extreme damage if you aren't careful. I’ve sliced through a mesh kickdrum head when using a Iron cobra beater that turned sideways. Same with trick beaters. Also, stick to plastic beaters with mesh heads. The felt ones will damage mesh heads if given enough time. A quick work around is to just use a regular kickdrum patch. It will protect your mesh, and a patch is alot cheaper to replace than a $35 mesh head.

5. Use padding when moving gear

6. Certain rubber cleaners claim to increase the lifespan of any rubber you use it on. Meaning it won’t crack and turn a weird gray color as fast. So that could definitely be a part of a cleaning regime. DR Kenndo or 303 aerospace cleaner

7. If you use brushes, go with nylon ones. Stay away from metal.

It all comes down to how many hours of play you’re doing. Honestly, if you hit a cymbal with a stick for 10 years, some day it’s going to break. You kinda just gotta accept that, and replace it when it happens. But it all comes down to tip 1. If you buy the good stuff the first time, it won’t fall apart year 2.
