I've been looking a lot into electronic kits lately, and my take will be to find:
a used interface/drumcomputer
a used double bass pedal
a hi-hat with mechanically activated double dishes, as I cannot possibly imagine how to play the tab-tab-lift-tab stuff on a single dish
research which various pads should be solid rubber or suspension types or build like a semi-acoustic with sensors.
I'm pretty sure the snare for me should resemble a real drum (i.e. being semi-acoustic), and some of the larger toms should be the semi-suspension types, as those seem to mimic real toms better.
I have no idea yet about which flapping rubber cymbals to go for.. seeing how drummers plays real cymbals hard, soft, hitting the outer perimeter, taps them closer to center et al.. makes me wonder how on earth to get anything sufficiently real out of those rubber dishes![Wink ;) ;)](data:image/gif;base64,R0lGODlhAQABAIAAAAAAAP///yH5BAEAAAAALAAAAAABAAEAAAIBRAA7)
I'm new to drums, having played air-drums for years, hehe, and will start rehearsing on a big pillow, to work up the correct relaxed hand wrist action and grips. Many pro drummers recommends this for learning not to depend too much on the rebound.
Meanwhile, I'll start looking out for the parts, at used and demo prices..
