What do you prefer Drum pads or Keyboards, I have both but usaully like using the keyboard mainly because I find it harder to do bass on drums pads.
 
Most of my beats are sampled based so i prefer the pad. the pad for samples and drums, keyboard for everything else, I couldnt really get into chopping a sample on the keys, idk, just dont feel right
 
keys, you can sample with keys but you cant make melodies with pads (easily)
 
Id say keyboards mainly because ive learned to work with them the most and you can basically do anything you can do on the pad.
 
both. It's always good to have a couple different approaches to keep things interesting and creativity high.
 
Wow, I'm surprised how many people said keys.

I'm a keyboardist and even I prefer pads.

I also play midi drums live...but I love doing percussion on pads.

I feel like I play too hard to be doing my drums on my keys.
 
I turn my keys into an MPC lol
id like to cop some pads tho and get a more 'feel' to my music no doubt.
 
Both, but pads for drums/percussion and keys for melodies, synths, bass, etc
