  xojjt's review

  Overall Opinion

  I purchased this product about six months ago. I was in the market for a drum set and living in an appartment, this seemed like the perfect choice. I looked at the electronic roland drum sets, but they just seemed way too expensive(although the feedback/response of the roland drum sets felt of higher quality and more realistic). This product was the best value that I was able to find for an electronic drum set. I found it relatively easy to assemble and also easy to position the drum heads to suite the needs of the user. The sound bank has many different drum kit sounds and you can plug any of the drum heads into any of the inputs on the control module which allows you to easily switch two pad sounds without re-mountin them. The pedals seem to be good quality although at first it wants to double tap the bass drum when you tap it once with your foot, although with practice this can be overcome. Overall I am satisfied by my purchase. You get what you see when you buy this product. I would reccomend this product to anyone as specially a new student learning how to play the drums.

  Gallagahn's review ( translated ) Improve this translation " Simplistic but effective"

  Overall Opinion

  I am a guitarist, bassist, Maoists ... I put myself on drums, what scares the drummer of my band. I'm starting drumkit, but not music.
  
  
  
  First, the sounds, yes they are very synthetic for years 80-90, but in an overall mix, it goes very well unless you are rock or metal. From the moment you play with keyboards and samples, sounds going very well. Sounds typed electronic music (not surprising since the module is basically a home alesis BAR, but not in the midday).
  
  
  
  Level sensations is not the skins of acoustic drums, it's no skin meshed with Roland, but there is some rebound, and therefore very proper for the price.
  
  
  
  Big avantange, modularity, yes, feeling Niveu bass drum pedal provided is invalid. But it seems that the designers did, and there is an input pad called "kick" in most of the pedal input "kick". So I plugged in the input pad and bought a pedal Tama (40 euros). It is cleverly put the pad and its stem so that everything does not move, but sensation level, the KD 8 of my drummer had better watch out.
  
  
  
  To conclude: good value, type safe, it is, good detection of the velocity. But we must think about the organization, because the previous owner was disappointed, but he had not exploited all possibilities of the beast. The midi out to control a computer or a sampler, so if the internal sounds are not satisfactory, you can create your own and play for a minimal investment (midi / usb).

  Overall Opinion

  _I Owns the past week
  
  
  
  Assets:
  
  
  
  _the sounds (the module is actually a BAR Alesis SR-16 on which the catches were added to connect the pads and pedals)
  
  _facile to assemble and transport
  
  _the price
  
  
  
  Cons:
  
  
  
  _the quality of the pads
  
  _the lack of pads! (It will take at least 2 more ...)
  
  _the pedals are so so, but good for the price ...
  
  
  
  I had tried any other drum machine before buying it, though I had played several acoustic, but the only reason why I took this one are the price and the ability to adjust the volume because I am against noise pollution and I do not disturb my neighbors are very nice.
  
  
  
  The value for money is good, you pay for what is a.
  
  
  
  With experience, I do it again this choice. She used to repeat with my new group, and who knows, it takes maybe for our first concert to help out until you have an acoustic. I recommend it to beginners like me pack or to repeat.

  Overall Opinion

  - How long have you use it?
  
  For several hours.
  
  
  
  - What is the particular feature you like best and least?
  
  I am a guitar teacher and this drumkit allows me to beginners without ruin me. The look is strong, the drumkit sounds good. The kit is easy silent well packed up and connect. However, I find the sound to the headset is not strong enough and despite the possibility of the sensitivity rgler strike, the toms do not come out strong enough, especially rpport the bass drum or box clear.
  
  
  
  - Have you tried many other models before acqurir?
  
  I have tried any other models before.
  
  
  
  - How do you report qualitprix?
  
  Trs good. For 400 euros, I think we can hardly do better is honnte trs. It's easy to get a drumkit low end. I might well go trs post advice on entry-level guitars because I play on Gibson or PRS. Obviously it is a drumkit of beginners, so nothing to do with the big MODELS 1000 euros.
  
  
  
  - With the exprience, you do again this choice? ...
  
  No hsitation! Especially since I got it for 360 euros!

  Overall Opinion

  Hi all, I am beginner, I have to acquire this drumkit on Ebay, the advantage is that c is the cheapest buy it just for England.
  
  Otherwise I'm quite happy at the beginning had j just the USB module I put on my PC with software a lot to learn but are against the Monstrous Music!
  
  J I quickly achgeter module (you just put a small adapter plug), and it's going to sounds are very realistic, there are 50 songs to play on, set the kits, tempo, volume ... is for the MIDI amp, auxiliary output, headphone jack with volume ca c background is good! And I think that there are fairly complete (for me pietre beginner but with a good foundation!)
  
  We need to talk then the pads of course! hard enough, loud enough, I have the impression that you need to type with the stick almost a flat top for the mawimum volume, otherwise the sensitivity is above, c is practical ca allows ghost notes which is an advantage for the drumkit low cost! j, unwanted rubber delivered in the sticks, with wooden sticks It's been a really dry sound and a weird bounce!
  
  The foot pedals are not bad, especially the hit hat control is very easy to take in hand (or rather walk!)
  
  In short, at the beginning I wanted to pay me a TD6 but c is not the same price! € 400 for ca c is well to start and learn well.
  
  to finish I recommend to those starting out or who have prior knowledge, without breaking the bank!
