That is using a SPD-20 triggering Steven Slate drums. One annoying thing is the MIDI layout, there isn't a kit on the SPD-30 that maps very well, so prepare to remap in EZDrummer or on the SPD. I have an SPD-30, and I've used it with Superior 2. All Alesis products have severe limitations and the DrumKat iw very expensive (but probably your best option). The looping may be overkill, but if you look at plain vanilla controllers that are on the market your options are limited. The latency you are experiencing has to do with your audio device, or lack of one.
Yamaha Tour Custom 6-piece drumkit, Presonus Project, Mac Mini Server, Logic Express 9.0, EZDrummer Is there a better product than the Alesis Control Pad that I should use? I want to emphasize that I need to be able to play using sticks and an external kick trigger. VST: EZDrummer, Native Instruments Abbey Road Drums Would the SPD-30 be a better option?ĭAW hardware: Mac Mini Server (2011) - 8 GB RAM, i7 Quad Core processor I am experiencing some latency and the pad response isn't too great. I am trying out the Alesis Control pad (connected via USB) and that isn't working out too well. I am looking for a pad controller than I can use with sticks and that has a very good response when it comes to playing ghost notes etc. I am a drummer and looking to for a good MIDI controller than I can use to lay down some solid grooves.
