Choosing the Best Electronic Drum Set on ANY Budget





What’s So Great About Buying Drums from Sweetwater?


Quick and easy setup and storage





You don't have to have an engineering degree to rock the XD8USB; Behringer designed these drum kits for quick and easy setup. Simply take the kit out of the box, adjust the drum and cymbal pads for just the right position, and a few cable connections later, you're playing - it's that easy. Whether you're packing the XD8USB to play a club gig, or just finished tracking your latest tune in the living room, just fold it up and it's ready to stow away or transport - you don't need massive amounts of space to get a massive drum sound.





Real-feel response and playability





If you're a drummer who uses electronic drums at home but counts on an acoustic kit for your live shows, you'll appreciate the natural rubber surface on the XD8USB's pads. With the feel and response of real skins and reduced incidents of false triggering, get set for the most expressive drumming experience you can get, without breaking the budget.





Convenient digital and analog connectivity





Whether you choose the XD8USB for its quick and compact form factor or its playability, you'll love the variety of sounds at your disposal. Fifteen different drum sets and 123 drum and percussion sounds are built in - all velocity sensitive and covering tons of different musical styles - so you can build up to five programs of your very own. And with the XD8USB's USB connectivity, you can record straight into your favorite DAW or use external MIDI sound modules and virtual instruments to create a tonal palette you just can't have with an acoustic kit. To feed the PA at live shows, there's a single 1/4" output for your sound engineer for main and monitor mixing. But, if you're a drummer who lives in an apartment, you know you can't be without a headphone output for silent practice - try that with an acoustic kit!
