I just noticed that a lot more artists are using electronic drum kits not just for practice but actually performing live-even in jazz and indie bands where you usually see acoustic kits! It got me thinking: has anyone here experimented with EXPRESSIVE play on electronic kits? Not just programming sounds, but using all the sensitivity controls, positional sensing, maybe even custom samples so it feels and sounds more "human"?
I’m curious about people’s unique setups. Has anyone created a hybrid kit or programmed e-drums in a way that would be hard (or impossible) on an acoustic set? What are the most “artistically” expressive things you’ve done? And are there any artists really pushing what e-drums can do on stage (not just in EDM)?
Share tricks, gear tips, or performances that blew your mind! I want to get inspired to use my kit for more than quiet practice.
