bobbass4k Posted November 21, 2010 Share Posted November 21, 2010 My housemates got an electric kit, an Alesis DM6 (I think). He's finding the snare isn't responsive enough, it doesn't really register very light or very fast hits. Anyone know of any very responsive electric snares? His drums connect by 1/4" jacks which I assume is the standard, so any brand should do. Ideally as close to a real snare as possible would be awesome.

LiamPodmore Posted November 21, 2010 Share Posted November 21, 2010 The Roland V-Drums seem to get alot of love, saw one of my teachers use one last year and his was very responsive. I don't know if they sell single peices though, so you might have to scour ebay for one. Liam Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I've never really shopped around for them as i have no use for one, but i hadn't spotted one on any sites so i didnt know. Thankyou for enlightening me.

BigRedX Posted November 21, 2010 Share Posted November 21, 2010 Has he set the sensitivity controls on the main unit properly? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
