I mostly used a 5B with nylon tip but lately have been using some pretty lightweight sticks , I think they are called 'fusion' sticks and have small round wood tip. Had to retune the trigger...

Since you already own an acoustic kit and are happy with the configuration, consider an acoustic to electronic conversion. Do a google search on stealth drums or jman, this guy has done a lot of...

I'm a rookie, I bought my kit late 2008, got a Roland td9-sx with mesh heads. I absolutely love it. I live in Lexington, KY and there is less than 15 feet between houses in my development. The e-kit...

Talk to the band director at a local high school to see if he knows anyone, if not then visit the music department of a local college, any college that offers degrees in music will probably know...

It's a 10 channel mixer so I don't see why you couldn't add some more mics. You will need adapter from XLR to 1/4" or possibly a pre-amp also (didn't see any mic pre's on the mixer page I was...

One of my closest friends has been playing acoustic 40 years. He played the Pearl set and absolutely loved the feel and size of the drum heads but he also said the module sounds were not great....

As scorch jammin said, you can split the connector but that will only give you a duplicate of your existing cymbal. Still useful if you like a crash on either side so you don't have to reach as far...

You can get drumless tracks for free on Roland's web site but they are short genre samples (ex. slow jazz, blues, pop). Not full length and not actual songs but useful for practice.

The TD9 module will accept audio input in real time w/o regard for song format or make/model of player. This allows you to play along with songs on your laptop, cd player, etc.

However I do not...

So I had a pretty long post in response yesterday but I apparently forgot to click it through.

Basics: Do a 5 minute quick mix just setting levels and panning, no equalization. That will get you...

For a raw or quick evaluation of your sound, a 15 minute basic mix of levels and panning will get you into the ballpark. But creating a mix that sounds good on multiple speaker systems or that is...

Haven't written any with a band. Mostly start with lyrics and melody, then find harmony chords and experiment with different rhythms and beats. But overall once basic lyric/melody and harmony exist...

I'm new to drums, bought the TD9 last October. Love the kit. Like the USB storage also, some of the older e-kits required midi cable to store files or update drum kits.

Bought a couple of expanded...

I have a traditional wooden metronome (wind up) which I like for playing bass and my daughter uses for clarinet. But for drum practice on the pads I prefer the Boss DB30 which is around $40 US. It's...

Probably depends upon which Roland kick you are using. I have the KD8 kick trigger, its about a year old, have had no issues. Use felt beater and I also stuck a Remo Kevlar peel and stick bass patch...
