Hello everyone,
I have a Roland HD1 e-drum kit. Worked fine with Toontrack. But looking for something more touch sensitive. Still, I need the small size the HD1 has as my room is small.
I could upgrade the snare by a more expensive one? Or is there a full drumkit (just as small) but with better trigger quality? I don't care about the sounds as I'll be using Toontrack anyway.
Thanks

Re: upgrade to Roland HD1
I don't know much about digital drums, but I'm wondering about the touch sensitivity. Since midi velocity has a set range, is the problem that the velocity is "bunched up" in parts of the range? Are there different curves you can apply, either on the instrument or in Toontrack?

"The Best" piece of gear is subjective.

The HD-1 has five different sensitivity settings, what's currently set to?
I'm a very light touch drummer (because I'm not a drummer) and I have no issues with the sensitivity of mine.
I don't think I've seen anything of a notably better quality that'll give you the same small footprint - might be worth looking at upgrading the snare but I'm not sure what the compatibility is like.
