Digital Drum Kits


At A'gon member Ulf's recommendation, I got hold of the tremendous live DVD "Lindsey Buckingham at Bass Hall". His drummer gets this amazing kick drum sound out of a digital set. It looks really strange, but sounds amazing. Anyone know which drummers use these on recordings and do they generally sound so impressive. Any comment is appreciated.

It may also be the recording - drums are almost always compressed and rarely sound lifelike on what is mastered for consumers - you may have found a good recording.

It may have been a stock digital drum set "brain" (e.g., d-drum, roland, etc.), but it's more likely that the pads were triggering hi-rez samples stored in a computer or sampler.
