I just wanted to take a few minutes and introduce myself formally here at DMdrummer.com.
I go by the name of Matt, I am from Florida and I love my Alesis kit. You know there is a lot of stipulation on what is "the best" and everyone thinks "Roland" is the best in the consumer market. I disagree, Roland is awesome but very very overrated and over priced. Who cares though, Im not here to talk about Roland. I have plenty of good things to say about Alesis instead.
One more thing though I dont understand, Alesis uses more expensive parts for some of their gear but still cost less then the competition.. I dont like people who take advantage of the market, and Roland does this.
However, Roland does make some decent products but the hardware is no better then Alesis. I dont care who you are, you WILL NOT bust these real mylar heads.
Anyways, Alesis for the win!
