Re: Beginner questions (may contain stupidity)
Just wanted to leave you with this bit of encouragement about your Yamaha DTX-500K E-kit - - - Ive got one of them myself and I take mine out to work paying gigs with it quite often at the small to medium small venues that I get called to do from time to time. Its a great little kit - one thing I did was to add a 3-zone "ride" cymbal and the good cymbal stand for it. I took a Y connector and plugged both crash cymbals into it and then plugged the Y into the Crash input on the controller - giving me 2 crash cymbals and a 3 zone ride that has the bell activated as well as the "splash" sound activated by hitting the very edge of the ride.
You have a good kit to learn on and to gig on - - - and welcome to the marvelous world of drumming - - - and to this great site full of really good drummers who will go out of their way to help you in any way they can.
