I'm doing my homework when it comes to researching the world of programming drums. (It looks like an electronic kit and a hundred hours of drum practice are going to be needed next year). In the mean time I'm stuck with a mouse and finding ways to make drumming with a mouse sound more effective (I hate to use the "real" word).

Anyway, all these articles mention how great a real drummer sounds and how you've got to go through various techniques to make the sequenced drums sound more "real". Well, most of the drummers I know just aren't that good. I know very few who I think really have great "feel".

So I'm wondering, just for discussion's sake, what's worse....poorly played real drums, or poorly sequenced fake drums?

One argument to that story is dance music makes A LOT of money. (I'm guessing more than rock music although that's just a wild guess without any hard facts for basis) The general public seams to be accepting of the mega quantized dance music sound.

So my vote goes in the "bad drummers are worse than poorly sequenced drums"?
