Nice review. What did you and the band use for monitoring I know 500 watts but could you and the band hear the drums fine while playing. That's where I always find the problem is with using electronics live.
What kind of music was this for. I too am an acoustic player, started with the octapad, and now have a td15. I want to use it out live but the band is a little Leary. For monitors, We run 3 1000 watt qsc k10s. And it just doesn't have the thump the rest of the band wants on stage. It works for me, and sounds way better than even a perfectly tuned mic ed drum kit. But they want to FEEL it.
We're a rock band. I used the octapad out live a few times as a mini kit with external k,s,HH,ride. And it went over well. This was with an acoustic trio. I tried it with this band the my band monkeys are just too loud.
Thanks for the review.
