Hello to all those interested,
I am currently gathering information for a paper with a thesis of "Based on certain criteria such as recording preference, living space, and genre of application, an electronic drum set may be a great substitute for an acoustic drum set." I have to write this paper and also build an electronic drum set in order to graduate from high school. In this case, I am calling upon you, the brilliant members of the Drummerworld forum for help. There are two ways you can do this: 1. Take the easy way out and reply with a simple "electronic" or "acoustic" to show your preference between the two -or- 2. Do a little extra work and fill out the brief questionnaire which I have compiled especially for you, which you will find below. Regardless of which one you choose, any help will be greatly appreciated. Thanks a lot and wish me luck!

1. What is your name?
2. How long have you been playing drums?
3. Please make a list of possible situations where you would prefer the use of an acoustic drum set. Consider genre of music, performance area/location, and recording application.
4. Please make a list of possible situations where you would prefer the use of an electronic drum set. Consider genre of music, performance area/location, and recording application.
5. Based on your answers to numbers 3 and 4, pick a situation from each list and give a brief explanation as to why you placed it in that list.
6. Please list any additional thoughts on the differences between electronic and acoustic drums below.
