The 4 Benefits Of An Electronic Drum Kit

August 24, 2022 by MGRSTL

Are you picking up the drums? This percussion instrument is arguably the backbone of every band and a great mental and physical workout. You’ve researched and decided that drums are your cup of tea. But now the question is, should you get a traditional or electronic kit?

used instrumentsThere is no right or wrong answer! It depends on factors like your budget, what you’ll be using it for, and more. If you choose to go electric, go for it! Electronic drum kits provide many benefits to players of all levels. Here are a few:

Volume control

Whether practicing in a dorm, apartment, or even your house, having the ability to control the volume is a great benefit. Not only will you be able to lower the sound levels so as not to annoy the neighbors, but you can also route the sound into your headphones. Electronic drum kits make practicing easy no matter where you are.

Easy to transport

Because of their smaller size compared to a traditional drum kit, electronic drum kits are easier to transport. All you need is a good case. This makes it easier to take them anywhere, especially if you are a frequent traveler.

Built-in tools

Electronic drum kits have many built-in tools like a metronome, the ability to record and replay your sessions for review, and a library of different drum kit sounds. Some even have computer software and smartphone or tablet apps that feature preset songs and practice programs with virtual coaches.

Budget-friendly options

An electric drum kit can be a great budget-friendly option for those musicians just starting, with whole new equipment running starting from around $300. If you buy used, you can save even more! At Music Go Round St. Louis, we can find you the right gear at used prices to reign in your volume.
