Hi all, I'm just starting out learning to play and I've been looking into what kind of kit to get while I build up some basics on a practice pad. Whatever I get needs to be small (because there's always room in our house for more pianos, but not drums!) and portable so that it can be moved around to wherever people are jamming.
I've looked at the Alesis Performance Pad and the pro version as these look ideally sized, but neither of them seem to support velocity sensitive pedals. Their percpad only has one pedal input so that's out too, and their control pad seems to be unavailable everywhere. Yamaha's DD-65 looks kind of interesting but only has switch pedals too.
The only similarly sized unit I can find that looks like it does is Yamaha's DTX multi 12, which looks awesome but is more $$$ than I'll be allowed to spend.
Can anyone recommend a beginner-suitable pad of similar size to the Alesis units that supports velocity sensitive pedals, or am I asking for the impossible?
