How is the electric drum kit different from the acoustic drum kit?

In just about every way. Acoustic drums are just that, actual drums with drum shells, lugs, tension rods & hoops, and drum heads. The sound is produced by the vibration of the drum heads and drum shell. Electric (electronic) drums are really nothing more than a MIDI instrument with triggers shaped to look like drums and cymbals. The sounds are produced electronically. The sounds are triggered to play when one of the drum heads (triggers) are struck with the drum sticks. Think of the triggers themselves as fancy pushbuttons. A computer can also produce the same sounds using only the keyboard to trigger the sounds. In the end, electronic drums SOUND like real acoustic drums, but aren't actually drums themselves.
