Yamaha is known for quality instruments, including the line of electronic drums. The portable electronic drums are mainly used at home for drummers who love to practice, or used by younger drummers just starting out. They are great for doing in home recordings and finding new rhythm patterns. The smaller set is a great way for beginners to get some practice while learning how to get specific beats and various sounds from the drums.
The full set of Yamaha electronic drums is geared for the more hands on players and professional players. Full sets include the kick petal, high hats, snares and whatever other drum unit’s one would prefer. Both of the units come with the capabilities of preset drum rhythms and offer headphone capabilities. A definite must have for those who live close to neighbors. Storage is not a problem, since most of the full sets are able to be semi torn down; making it easier for setting up the drums when one has the time to play. Each unit will vary on the features it offers, but some of the features one may find are preset songs that one can select to practice playing along with a song, and a timing helper, to see how well your timing is. If you have a song that you would love to learn, the option of connecting a cd player or other electronics into the drum set will allow you to learn the music you want to learn.
Prices will vary in the selection of the electronic drums, because each one will have different features per set. The smaller portable sets are cheaper than a full set, but one may find those are limiting, depending on what one is planning to use them for. If you have ever noticed what professional musicians are playing on tour, it is a guarantee that one will find Yamaha on tour with the best.
