Hi,
I am interested, whats are main disadvantages of using say, a Yamaha DTXPress IV e-kit as a midi controller, and then later trigger it with say, DFH 2 or something similar?
Apart from Meshuggah, there are no other "pro" metal albums to my knowledge recorded this way (Morbid Angel on Gateways, but it sounds bad imo). Sure, this way there is no wood resonating and all that, but whats the deal?
Are there some other things that prevent people to use e-kits and then later use samples? Can you get convincing "real drum sound" by using the e-kit and quality multi samples (after all, that e-kit is being played by a real drummer, so there are all those various velocities and imperfections in timing)?
Cheers!
