Hello,
I have this drumkit for 2 years.
I use it as an interface to control BFD2 MIDI. Indeed, the original sounds are good but really nothing to do with software quality expander.
I changed the bass drum pad with a bass drum sound triggée (do not worry it's a drum kit very low end of that time almost 20 years), the pad really making too much noise and unpleasant the touch. And suddenly my drumkit has put on weight
.
I also changed the charley VH-11 by a much more intuitive and efficient than the whole pedal + pad (which became a sudden crash of a splash or two depending on the kit used).
The snare was also changed to that from the last model TD20.
I added a MultiPad to capture my Alesis drum pad roland me used to control various sounds (cowbell, another bass drum, bass drum even using the same MIDI note) and drive many other sounds.
You can see various objections to these additions but this is the only way I found to not ruin me even more of a blow. And surely I could find a cheaper solution but at the time I did not see better.
So basically it's a good kit that can serve as a base but which is very limited in use, unfortunately.
To complement and enhance my drumkit I would need a bigger rack accepting my GC by 20 inches (not Roland), the module I used almost exclusively MIDI module (which can be chained to another module, the TMC-6 example to increase the number of entries).
A +
