I've not been shy about praising my Roland TD-9 kit. I couldn't have chosen a better kit for my needs.
It does have USB for a memory stick, lot's of inputs and outputs; midi in/out too.

I was diagnosed about 3 years ago and I still have pain. I have Golfer's elbow in both arms.
The difference between tennis and golfer's is the side of the elbow affected. If you hold your arm...
Congrats on the purchase drum002.
Playing an e-kit is different, but I think you'll enjoy the no muss no fuss side of things. Just sit and play; go away for a few weeks, come back, sit down, and...
Beautiful throne Riouel. It's almost a shame to sit on it.
I think the price you paid may have been expensive. So many hours, so many beers. But, I think the finished product is worth more than...
That could have been a small fast crash with some of those beads strung on it.
Congrats playingagain. Glad to hear you get to continue the journey.
I received the Pearl VSX kit as a Christmas present and I like these drums. I was really looking at another brand, but who is...
Thanks bongobro. I've been at it for a couple of years now. I've played (around) on guitar and Mandolin for about 10 years on and off, but I always liked percussion better.
In fact, in bluegrass...
I started drumming when I was 52.
Cost is relative. What's affordable to me is expensive to someone else, and vice versa.
Some of the pressure to buy more expensive kits is just good marketing. Manufacturers want to sell gear,...
Lots of beautiful kits here. Good thing I won't have to decided between them.
But, among all the beautiful wood finishes and wild paint jobs, I think the black and chrome Tama kit really caught...
I think any of those kits mentioned would be a great first kit. While I have been playing (at) drums for about 2 years, my wife actually just bought me my first acoustic drum kit for Christmas. ...
Love my Roland TD-9S. It's within your price range.
There are a number of good e-kits, so look around for the features you want.
Don't forget that you will need an amp or headphones to hear it,...
I put the HD dry over a Hazy 300 on my Pearl Sensitone Snare. Sounds pretty good to me.
The snare is the basic alloy steel model that comes with the Vision kit.
Cool idea DD. There are so many different ways to clean or restore shine to cymbals posted that involve chemical or mechanical actions. They all remove some material.
Even vinegar is acid. I...
Homemade burgers are the best to me. We can have them cooked the way we want...med rare.
Sometimes, I like a fried egg on top and some Coleman's mustard.
Your practice routine sounds fine to me. I do something similar and I play to a metronome at different tempos; starting slow and working up, then back down.
I use the book, Stick Control for the...
Some say...he watches too much Top Gear. Others believe there's no beating a conventional snare.
I only know...that whichever (snare; Grampire) you choose...will end up being the right one.
The new DW Performance series is also in/around your price range. Played them briefly at the music store and they sound pretty sweet.
I've been playing my Roland e-kit in the house for more than a year with no complaints.
The loudest sound is the kick pedal hitting the pad. I use the plastic side because the felt was leaving...
Hi Dusko,
It sounds like a workable solution to the noise issue, and you still get to play your drum kit.
I am lucky enough to have both an acoustic and an electric kit, so I can choose...
That's a sad story. I once read that FEDEX has/had (at the time) a 99% on time delivery rate. But, they delivered 2M packages a day and that meant that 20,000 people were disappointed every single...
I have an overwhelming desire to eat a steak now.
I like metal snares, cuz that's what I got.
That's some beautiful hardware. Must be a joy to play. Enjoy!
I'll bet that using the input jack disables the external microphone. Sort of makes sense that they set it up that way.
But it does mean that to do what you want you'll need some kind of external...
