A virtual drum kit
Since I was unable to play in the band because of my back problems, I've been killing my time with this. Still not as good as the real thing, but a fun substitute while I'm stuck here on the couch.

Nick Perrin said on 02/28/05 @ 07:46 PM: this drum set is good and has good sounds but it cant play sounds at exactly the same time making timing impossible.

Nameless One said on 10/10/06 @ 04:03 PM: How do you get the free drum set. I want
that set, I would just need to add to it.
DRUM FREAK!!!!!!! said on 10/10/06 @ 04:06 PM: how do you get that free drum kit! I need
to add to my collection!!!!!!!!
DRUM FREAK!!!!!!! said on 10/10/06 @ 04:08 PM: I WANT THAT DRUM KIT!!!
DRUM FREAK!!!!!!! said on 10/10/06 @ 04:14 PM: EMILY IS RIGHT WICKED PANGUIN IS OFF THE CHAIN, AND ILLER THAN EVER.
Taylor said on 10/12/06 @ 05:47 PM: This drumset is good for the real life sounds it produces but unlike another virtual kit, you cant do 4/4 and fsat beats because its to slow and you cant hit double like on the snare. i play the drums in real life and im always beating on the desk playing beats but now ive looked for a drum kot and i found a good one that is just like playing drum except the snares, and cymbals, and toms.. are keys on your key board. its fun to try to get the kick drum into your beats. its tricky. but its easy after awhile
Taylor said on 10/12/06 @ 05:48 PM: Ohh yeah, That good drum kit is the Wicked Penguin one. search that on google and it will come up
MIKE said on 10/15/06 @ 10:14 AM: SNARE SOUNDS TERRIBLE. KEYS ARE NOT SET UP WITH AN EASY CONDUCIVE FASHION FOR PLAYING. TIMING IS WAYYY OFF. TRY WICKED PENGUIN'S VIRTUAL DRUM SET. IT IS THE BEST I HAVE FOUND TO DATE.
Ricky dum mad said on 10/27/06 @ 12:53 PM: how the hell do i get on it
Metalbasher said on 11/20/06 @ 03:45 PM: I have to say good job, I was really looking for a better alternative than buying an expensive set of drums. However as unfortunate as it is, I've found that nothing can compare to the real time beating of the skins. It seems to me to be a primordial instinct ...not fathomed, not understood....though learned. Numbers...yes, however to program emotion is yet to be done and I feel that is what true music is about, thus I feel that the true feeling of grabbing a stick and massaging the skin or down right smashing it is entirely personal.
By the way I'm a guitar player who would love to have played the drums instead. (can't afford both)

metali-fan said on 01/22/07 @ 06:06 PM: i'm to poor for drums iwish i could get some in the meen time a guitar will have 2 do:P
