I bought an acoustic kit and spent a couple years practicing and learning on and off. I LOVED it. Ironically, Jimbo is one of the people who first got me into it. However, I had to move out of my rehearsal space, and I live in a condo. I can't make noise. So I had to pack up my kit, and I went NUTS wanting to play for years. I started researching e-drums, and this is where I found how much more triggers were capable of. Before that, I too thought that triggers were just another way to cover up the fact that Darren Ces.... uhh, I mean other drummers... barely hit their drums at all. Once I got my kit, I jumped on it and found out the hard way. I found it HARDER to play the triggers than acoustic drums. I won't go into the reasons again, because Jim and I have pointed them out already over and over. So when I hear people say triggers make it easier to play, or are cheating, I get PISSED because it LITERALLY took me a year to learn to do on triggers what I can do on an acoustic kit already. As for bpm and tempo, Jim, you're off a little. Time signature does not matter. In proper notation, tempo is written exactly as I said. Note value = BPM. So if the assumption is that we're playing at 200BPM, we would set the quarter at 200, even if you're playing in 19/16. I understand what you're saying, and I agree with you, but what I describe is PROPER musical notation, which I fucking HATED having to read in school.
