I’m thinking about getting an electric drum kit for home practice and maybe some light recording. I've been playing acoustic drums for years, but I’m limited on space and need something more neighbor-friendly. I'm curious if anyone has experience with this transition. How do electric kits compare in terms of feel and response? Are there particular brands or models that are recommended for someone used to playing acoustic? Also, what should I consider when it comes to hardware/computer setup for recording? Thanks in advance for any advice!

Switching to an electric drum kit can be a great option for home practice and recording, especially in tight spaces. The feel and response vary by model and brand; Roland and Yamaha are popular choices often praised for their realistic feel compared to acoustic drums. Look for kits that offer mesh heads, as these tend to provide a more authentic playing experience. For recording, you'll need a good audio interface and DAW. Brands like Focusrite are reliable for interfaces. It's worth considering if the kit has MIDI capabilities for more versatility in your projects. Are there specific types of music you plan to record? That might help narrow down the best setup for you!
