[@volkzmusic8499]

Vr itself is good but paradiddle doesn’t really work. A big part of playing drums correctly is rebounding off the pads which lets you transfer and play faster plus controllers are heavy and bulky compared to sticks. Respect for the devs though it’s good for the hardware they have to work with

[@xXTheRealEagleXx]

@@volkzmusic8499 oh believe there are people that are moving their hands and arms faster than you can imagine... and that WITH heavy and bulky controllers! Don´t believe me? Watch some Gameplay Videos of the best Beat Saber players in the world! Yes you can´t really compare Beat Saber and Drums, i´m just talking about the speed. If you love the game and don´t care for you´r wrists go for it (not recommended)!

How about buying a drumset instead?

[@rtyuik7]

i can see this as a great way to not only practice/play drums, yourself, but also as an Instructional video...its got a POV cam and each drum 'reacts' to being hit, so the viewer knows EXACTLY whats going on...its like those piano videos that use Synthesia...

[@slammlovr]

Exactly! I WILL be using this!

Speaking as a former drummer that had to deal with so much hassle and financial bs obtaining and maintaining even a crappy sounding drumset, this is one of the coolest and best uses for VR I've ever seen! You're keeping the spirit of music alive by allowing people of all ages and abilities to learn how to play the drums and have fun with it. I cant wait to see what you upload next!

[@ParadiddleXR]

@@katarinanokami2718 the physical response of an electric kit is of course more satisfying, but there are also a few arguments to be made for VR: - More portable, you can bring a Quest anywhere and bring your kit with you. - We have a rhythm game mode built-in for a more game-like experience, which makes the app easier to get into for complete beginners. - We also have more structured lessons coming in our future Version 1 update. And there's a lot of other cool things to do in VR, if the original poster wanted to let their daughter try out painting or sculpting in VR as well :)

All of the drums in the app have dynamics! All of our instruments are velocity sensitive, with multiple samples used in each velocity layer to make sure everything sounds responsive and natural. Some of our instruments like the ride cymbals also have multiple hit zones (center vs edge).

[@jonmayer]

I tried paradiddle months back and drumming without physical feedback is so hard. I am amazed you could do this. Unless you set up a physical set and mirrored their location in VR.

[@bigdog91paper]

This is where I'm at. Coming from being used to actually being able to hit things, not getting the rebound off the drum head or cymbal makes my arm tire out real quickly and I constantly go *through* the drums and cymbals and hit things beneath them, not to mention how much heavier the index controllers are than a stick. Feels like the sticks really need a physical interaction in game to stop them from clipping through. How would you go about using a physical set? Like I could see having an electric set just unplugged but in the real locations but what would be tracking your sticks if you're not using a controller?

[@krytxps]

[@JamesBalazs]

You can plug a MIDI keyboard into your PC and Paradiddle maps it to in-game drums. I'd bet they are doing that in this at least for the kick and hat pedals. Bought it today and played around for half an hour, it's fun and only takes a short while to get used to the lack of "feedback". The main issue for me is the hand tracking is really jank on quest, there's noticeable lag playing over steam link, and playing the kick drum with your finger feels gross but I'm told a Guitar Hero / rock band drum pedal plugged into the PC aux port will work as a trigger.
