@daseinslaborant@berlin.social Boah! I wasn't expecting to find more Drumbeam users here! Thank you for confirming my first impressions.
I have a question, if you don't mind. I don't plan to play an actual drum set but I'm looking forward to improve my dexterity with the sticks and learn more about rhythms altogether. Do you think the Drumbeam can act as a decent practice pad, even if the form factor is different?

@icaria36@sonomu.club Hmm I think it is a great and versatile tool to interface with electronics. So it will either elevate your drum with synthetic sounds or your synths with more haptic interaction. But if you're looking into drumming/percussion there's so much more to it with an acoustic instrument, its own dynamics and challenges. For pure stick control I'd rather recommend a practice pad or mesh trigger pad, which gives you more natural feel and better allows playing styles like rolls and rim shots.
