When I had mesh acoustic, I built up the sound with masking tape strips on the underneath, gradually covering more of the area to increase the sound. Worked well if I remember.

There’s a Dtx10 on reverb for £2600 in UK . Not mine as I’ve got one …

Yes I’d never go back to mesh now I have the tcs, but different strokes etc…

Those Alesis phones as good as the Vic Firth, or better? I would also recommend trying the TCS Yamaha pads.

You got the Yamaha hi hat and choke functions to work with the Alesis module?

Not available in the UK though…

I tried my Alesis kit module with the Yamaha DTX Pro X hardware as I prefer the TCS pads but couldn’t get the hi hat and choke functions to work together as that to me would have been the ideal combination; the Strike had excellent kits as standard and the module was easier to use out of the box.

The strike pro x had excellent kits as standard but I had frozen module and cymbal sensitivity issues. Hope they’re ironed out for that price. Does look really user friendly though.

Yes I’ll look there but I’m wary they’re mostly processed for marketing reasons rather than actual sounds I’d hear at home.

I’m in the UK so there’s nowhere to try before you buy nearby, but thanks for the suggestions.

Yes I think that may be my problem as i need it to be room volume only yet still headphone quality.

I’ve tried a big powered speaker, still very disappointed . Until someone can definitely gaurentee headphone type quality I’m not going down that route again! I mean an unprocessed video demonstration of the ekit through the speaker.

From a novice play along hobbyist aspect, I was horrified at the poor quality sound I managed to eventually coax out of my basic (superstar, stage custom etc) kit even while trying many different heads. Much down to my inexperience of course, then came the dinner plate sounding cymbals, then...

My first ekit was that Nitro and I found it too low in the first place and agree with others- get a better used kit.

Had them all. Dtx 6 I didn’t like the rubber Tom pads. Had the alesis pro se- great sounds, module froze, cymbals difficult to find sweet spot- had to use them upside down. Agree about the size of pads being relatively unimportant after a while. The Yamaha will always win for me with the...

I looked seriously at the Mimic, but found out it can’t work pro with Yamaha dtx pro x hi hat so compatibility needs consideration .

Thanks, just finished it. A detailed, long, interesting read.

Because I’ve yet to buy an Irig..

Great, so it’ll record video and audio my playing along on to my iPhone/iPad straight from my subscribed playlist? This is what I’m after.
