Slight topic drift. It's been my experience that a well tuned kit isn't as loud as a poorly maintained rig. I don't know if that's a reflection on the guy behind the kit, or badly sympathetic heads. |

Our drummer is incapable of "turning down". |

(I can't believe I'm writing the following sentence) In defense of drummers... I'm currently working with a drummer that is so conscious of his levels on stage he uses various sticks and brushes depending on the song. It is a theatrical production, by the way. |

Just like a guitarist has to change his tune for a song, the percussionist should have to change his instrument. |

Interesting and false. A good melodic drummer can play close to the limits of audibility. I know I've heard a drummer make sounds that were quiet as a church mouse DURING HIS SOLO all the while keeping the audience rapt. -Bink |

I'm sure VDrums can sound good, still searching... I'm planning on getting my hearing checked soon, listening to the drummer's wedge and kit during practice has taken a toll. Caleb |

Now I've needed a monitor to hear vocals, guitar, keys and a little bass, but never needed to hear my kick, and the rest of my kit for that matter in a monitor. |
