Hello and greetings;
My name is Stuart. I have been drumming since I was 18 (now 51). It is purely a hobby. I just replaced my Yamaha DTXetreme IIs module with the Alesis DM10 and I have to say I am impressed. It plays better on the Yamaha pads better than the Yamaha module did. I am very pleased with the sounds and triggering, but mostly the ease of programming. Much simpler than the Yamaha. Will be replacing the pads with Roland mesh heads for the toms. I am using the Pintech Hi Hat controller with a compliment of Pintech and Yamaha Cymbals. All work quite well (with tweaking). I also play a large Gretsch Renown Maple acoustic kit (with an Alesis Sample Pad on it). Looking forward to exploring all the good tips and tricks you have to share.
Stuart
