Electronic Drumkit Compatability S2

[Matthew Darcy]

While I’m awaiting S2’s box to appear on my door step I thought I’d ask about V drum compatability.

I’m considering getting a cheap V drum kit to use with the S2 sounds so that I can make it easier for my drummer to play on demo tracks.

I’m looking at the

Alesis DM-5 Electronic Drum Kit – which seems a “bargin basement” kit

and

Roland TD-3KW

which seems to be the entry level “quality” kit.

I’d be interested in seeing if S2 is known to be compatible with these kits/devices.

I’d also be interested in hearing from people who use them how S1 S1 C&V works with them, in terms of response to sounds etc etc, to get a flavour for how S2 will work (assuming it’s compatible)

thanks,

Matt

The short answer is “yes” you can get them to work together.

You should read some of the posts in the E-drum section of this forum. There a re a ton of tips and some really good info from othewr users.

The answers regarding which works better is subjective. Dependes on your needs. From what I’ve read, Roland gear seems to be the way to go if you have the $$$.
