Anyone knows where i can buy a drum machine for drum practicing?

You mean digital drums? Yamaha. Other brands i dunno.

yes.... need one for practice.... or any other way for practice rudiments?

Roland has its line of Digital Drums too.

If you want a drum machine to create beats, I think you could do that with various softwares like Fruity Loops.

if I want a drum kit for practice? I need to find a way for practice my rudiments everyday if not won't improve...

I think it's better to practice on a real drum set loh, because whilst the digital drums sound good, it feels somewhat unnatural. Otherwise if you have a friend or relative who owns a drumset, you can always practise there. Last resort, practise with pillows.

hahhaa anyway thanks for the advice.... other thing is, besides fruity loops what can I use?

If you want a totally free Drum Loop, try out Hammerhead Rhythm Station.
If you want a MIDI recorder with a great drum machine, use Reason 3.0 and it's REDRUM Drum machine......

i'm a poor guy.i used to practise drums with only a pair of drumsticks.

Yellow Pages!

I used to play drum but now I kept it in the storeroom because lack of space and it's very noisy. Now messing around with Beatcraft. Very user friendly drum machine. I just made this, check it out.

the good thing abt digital drum is u can even practice it in midnight since the volume can be control...and there's various music to accompany ur playing...

get a practice pad(including for practicing ur legs) . theyre quiet and it helps improve.

My brother practices at night on his drum stool. According to him, the feel is closer to the snare than any practice pads he has tried. Downside is you can't practice your footwork. His stool is the only one i have seen with stick marks on it

Bro until you can afford the real thing , try software drum machines , I suggest Acoustica beatcraft ( I have used it super easy and realistic samples) , Or try the well known favorite EzDrummer ( 20gig sample library) , I leave it up to you to get the source
