The feel IS different and it'll take some getting used to but, if it's the onky way you'll get to practise it will help tremendously.
I practise my electronic kit everyday apart from band practise day, at first I thought the kick towers did more damage than good to my playing but, like anything, if you do it long enough you'll get used to adjusting.
When I set my acoustic kit at practise it takes me 15-20 mins before I feel like I'm grooving, that could also be that I'm warming up too.
I've cut little pads out of foam/rubber drum mutes and glued them onto my kick towers for that soft 'give' of a real bass drum and spent ages customising my kit, trigger sensitivity, gain, cross-fade sample and even just turning the toms down and the cymbals up so I don't feel as much of a shock when going back to acoustic 'cos all electronic kits are set up appallingly with their factory settings, toms are too loud you'll get lazy so just adjusting these will help.
It's never going to be exact but I treat them as seperate instruments, sone things I do on acoustic don't work so well on electric and vice-versa but, learning that is another string to your bowe.
I record with my e-kit so I instinctively know if I can pull it off on my acoustic kit. If I don't think I can I don't record it that way.
The dynamic levels are nowhere near real drums but, if you can groove on an e-kit you can certainly groove on an acoustic kit.
Actually I've developed techniques and way of playing to 'flatter' my e-kit and make it seem more real. Just like the guys who demo them for the companies, only for people to buy one and it sound nothing like the demo!
It's the future though so jump aboard. I'm not saying they're taking over from acoustic but hybrid sets are becoming more common and the quicker you get used to it the broader your horizon is.
