Product Information

The Pearl e/Merge is a popular new electronic drum kit, and it’s the only electronic kit currently available from the Pearl brand. It’s a professional option, as it easily competes with all the flagship models from other electronic brands. DO: Do buy used.You'll pay a lot less for drums that might just need a little touch up and cleaning.You might just stumble across a vintage kit that's worth a lot more than you paid for it. Replace the old heads with new ones, and most drums will sound as good as new. It is important to remember that quality should always take precedence over quantity. With that in mind, here are four essential pieces of equipment that every beginner drummer should start with: Using leftover sawdust and wood chips from production, PlanToys has created a drum set that is environmentally safe and free from formaldehyde and chemicals. This company seems to have high eco-friendly production standards. Along with the digital hi-hat pad are the digital ride and snare drum pads. Those were included in the original version of this kit, but the combination of those and the new hi-hat pad makes this kit feel better to play than most competing kits on the market.

It may be easy to overlook the sound module as such a vital component. The truth is that the drum module is by far the most expensive part of the electronic drum set. The big feature that I loved about this set was that it was a typical DW acoustic drum kit. It just had removable mesh heads with the wireless technology built into them. The IQ Toys My First Drum Set, Mendini 3-Piece Drum Set, and VTech Zoo Jamz Drums include a foot (bass) pedal. If your toddler truly wants to play drums in the future, this is a good feature to help them get used to the real deal. If you just want to practice at home, you can simply use headphones you already own. However, I highly recommend getting studio-quality headphones that will bring the best sounds out of your drums. That will make you enjoy them a lot more.Pearl is one of the most trusted names in drums , and for good reason. Pearl drums are made with high-quality materials and construction, ensuring that they will last for years to come. In addition, Pearl offers a wide range of sizes and styles to choose from, making it easy to find the perfect set for your needs.

The right place to start drum shopping depends on the person you're shopping for. You’ll want to consider the age of the drummer, their eagerness to learn, where and when they will practice at home, and the budget you’re working with. A metronome – A metronome is an invaluable tool for developing a sense of timing and rhythm. When first starting out, it is often helpful to practice with a metronome set at a slow tempo. As you become more comfortable with the basic concepts of timing and rhythm, you can gradually increase the speed until you are able to play along with songs at their native tempo.Taking care of your drum set is essential to keep it sounding great and prolong its lifespan. Much like maintaining an acoustic guitar, here are some tips for maintaining your drum set: Another important consideration when buying a drum set is size. You’ll want to make sure that you choose a set that is somewhere between 18″ and 24″ in diameter. Anything smaller than that may be too small for most adults, while anything larger may be too big and bulky. Once again, it’s all about personal preference—some people prefer a smaller set while others find them more comfortable to play on a larger one. Try out different sizes at your local music store before making your final decision. Budget Accordingly Snare and Tom drums. The snare drum is the loudest and most prominent drum. The bottom, or resonate, drum head has a system of “snares” or thin wires that gives the drum its sharp sound. Generally, a drum kit will have three tom drums - a floor tom mounted on a stand, as well as a medium and high tom mounted to the set itself. Since the drum set is only 1.98 lbs, it can easily be taken along on road trips and moved around by your toddler. It does have a short height of 11.5″ which is convenient for kids to sit and play, but some customers complain that they were expecting a taller drum set.

Each drum pad and cymbal has its own sound, helping toddlers with sensory development as they connect the sounds with their respective drum parts. Being an electronic drum set, toddlers will enjoy the various modes of play that teach numbers, colors, and rhythm. The first thing you’ll notice about it is the size. You get far more drums and cymbals here than you do with any other e-kit, and all of them are larger than you’d expect. I love the playing experience you get from it, as it feels the same as playing on a large 6-piece acoustic kit. No doubt, being the parent of a drummer takes some patience. Here's some tips for getting ahead of the curve: If you start with this, the adjustment to playing an acoustic kit could feel a bit weird when playing the bass drum.If you or your child are in love with the drums, and you know it’s going to be a main focus, than it may be worth investing in a nice kit right away. If this is the case, then acoustic is the only way to go in my opinion. There are so many things like dynamics, finesse, rebounds, feel, and hi-hat technique that can’t be learned or applied on an electric drum kit. Also, playing a live show with electric drums is like driving a go kart vs. a real race car. Keep your drum set in a dry place: Avoid storing your drum set in damp or humid environments, which can cause rust and corrosion. Alternatively, if you intend on using an electric drum kit primarily for home practice, it may be wise to consider buying a set that fits into your home suitably and produces a lower volume response from the pads. Typically, high-end electronic drum sets will take up more space; featuring larger sized pads to replicate the feeling of playing an acoustic drum set. The only electronic kits that I know of that come with a snare stand and hi-hat stand are the Yamaha DTX-10 models. Everything else will end up costing more than you think due to needing those extra components. With these four essential pieces of equipment, you will be well on your way to becoming a successful drummer!
