Hello all,
I'm looking for advice on building a hybrid drumset, exclusively for live performances. The reason for going hybrid is getting low volume while still retaining acoustic feel.
To that end the setup I had in mind was the following. Toms, kick drum and snare would remain kitted with acoustic heads but I would install triggers. I wanted to know to what extent I could deaden the sound of the drums (to keep volume down) whilst still retaining the acoustic heads. I was thinking of filling the drums with pillow stuffing. Anyone has any experience with this?
The rest of the set will be equipped with all Jobeky: Hi hats, 2 crashes and 1 ride.
I plan to run the kit through EZ drummer 3. What modules would be best for that, knowing I wouldn't use any integrated sounds from the module?
In summary:
- To what extent can I deafen the drum shells whilst still keeping on the acoustic heads? Is this even practical?
- What drum module would be best for using sounds exclusively with EZ drummer 3?
Thank you so much in advance
