Re: choosing eDrum kit: opinions please :)
If you want to, did you know that you can use Alesis Surge cymbals with a lot of Roland modules, so that if you bought a Roland kit with mesh heads, you could swap out the rubberised cymbal pads that come with those kits and have some e-cymbals that at least give a real cymbal feel when you strike them with sticks? I've heard of a few drummers doing that. I haven't as yet experimented with someone's Yamaha module or kit doing the same thing, but I'm sure you could do that with Alesis cymbals too. Just a thought. Personally, I have two Alesis e-kits where the hi-hats are each plugged into a Roland Octopad, taking advantage of the various onboard open and closed hi-hat sounds...mind you, each of those are also controlled with a Roland FD-8 pedal, not an Alesis one.
