Hi guys
I have been a drummer for about 6 years now and for a while i've been playing my DTXplorer for practice. Recently i've also started playing it for band practice but the sound arent that great and since playing my friend's td-9 i just can't look at my kit in the same way again .
So, i want to buy a decent new kit that will pretty much last me forever ie. little need to upgrade. I am a metal player and want to use it for practice and probably recording. Being a metal player, the bass drum pad is pretty important, i definitely need a decent one. Also, my ideal setup would be bass, snare, hihat, 3 toms, crash, ride, china and splash. So i want something with enough expandability to handle that. Other than that i just want something with good sounds as i'll want to record with it.
As for a budget, i don't have one per se. Over in the UK, i noticed we have this Arts Council loan, where you can borrow up to £2000 interest free for buying instruments so my budget is that + whatever i can save up. I think i should be able to muster another £1000 which is why i'm thinking of the TD-12KX.
Thanks in advance for any help
