For my current set up I am really satisfied with my cymbals (Hats, 2 crash & ride stands) but all of the rest of it is old (my bass and toms(2 hanging floor) are 10 year old cheaper starter kit junk) or broken (my snare had to be tightened "on" after the switch broke)
I am planning on replacing them all in the new year and a recent conversation with my band mates had me thinking about maybe going electric for the bass and toms. I like the idea of keeping my cymbals and snare acoustic as I fuck around with those to get various acoustic effects more often than I do with the toms, the big thing I want to be able to do with toms/bass drum is hit harder=louder. This would ensure I dont have to do tuning maintenance on the toms/bass and dont have to try to mic them for a live performance/recording or anything, it would also allow me to experiment with other effects for some songs.
Is this an absolutely stupid idea? If it isnt, what recommendations for brand and supplier to buy bass trigger 3-4 drum head triggers, the control system and the stands to hold them? A lot of the stuff I found online is for full kits(not suprising) and so I'm wondering where I could shop more ala carte?
tldr; is acoustic cymbals(hats, 2 crash, ride) and snare electric bass and 3 toms a stupid idea and if not what/where to buy?
