F.A.Q
Can you use ProOrca sticks on an electronic drum kit?
Yes, our 7A and 5A hickory models are ideal for electronic drums. Their finish and balance allow for a feel close to acoustics while respecting your pads.
Why choose suitable drumsticks for playing on an electronic drum kit?
Electronic drum pads react differently than acoustic drumheads and require well-balanced drumsticks to maintain rebound and avoid unnecessary fatigue. The 7A and 5A models offer precision and comfort, even during long sessions.
What is the difference between the 7A and 5A models in terms of electronics?
The thinner, lighter 7A is ideal for drummers looking for speed and finesse on sensitive pads. The more versatile 5A provides more presence and solidity for more forceful styles or less sensitive settings.
Do ProOrca drumsticks damage electronic pads?
No, they're made of natural hickory and carefully sanded to be gentle on rubber or mesh surfaces. They protect your pads and offer excellent durability, without the risk of damaging your equipment.
Do electronic drumsticks wear out faster?
Playing electronic drums is generally less aggressive on the sticks than on an acoustic drum kit, thanks to the flexibility of the pads. You will therefore benefit from very good longevity, even during intensive rehearsals.
Why choose a wood like hickory for playing electronic drums?
Hickory is known for its strength and shock-absorbing properties. This reduces vibrations transmitted to your hands and provides a more natural and controlled feel on the pads, even after long hours of playing.
How do I choose between the different models for my electronic set?
The choice depends on your style and feel: choose the 7A for lightness, speed, and detail, and the 5A for a more energetic and versatile style. Each model is balanced to give you the best bounce on all types of pads.
Do electronic drumsticks help you improve your technique?
Absolutely. Thanks to their lightness and balance, they help develop precision, control, and endurance. They're an excellent choice for exercises on a training pad or module.
Why are ProOrca sticks ideal for quiet playing?
Their lightness and careful finish allow for smoother and less tiring playing on the pads, ideal for practicing at low volume at home, while maintaining the sound quality and rebound of the pads.
Are you starting out on the drums or looking for a versatile pair that's reliable in all situations?
The Classic collection is the ideal foundation: 7A, 5A, 5B, 2B—standardized, proven, and balanced sizes for every style, from jazz to rock. It's also the natural entry point for drummers of all levels, thanks to the immediate comfort provided by the raised marking (the flag), which helps you position your fingers correctly.
Is there a risk to my wrists if I play electronics with bad sticks?
Yes, an unbalanced or overly heavy stick can strain your joints and reduce your accuracy. With the 7A and 5A ProOrca models, you can protect your wrists thanks to their carefully designed balance and controlled lightness.
