            A good deal for the money . .especially since the price drop for the holidays . .I've had mine for over a month now and got it on a price drop . . . fairly easy to set up, just take your time and it makes sense once you lay it out . . I'm glad I got the DM 10X set instead of the smaller heads . . . head response is fine, its not a batter head so you're not getting the stick rebound from a real drum but its doable. The sounds in the module are fine, trigger sensitivity seems to have been worked out so no big issues right out of the box. You can't choke the crash cymbals but at this price nothing to cry about. Hi Hat is a bit wobbly with pedal control at times. Over all a fun set that will keep you busy and the neighbors from complaining late at night when the urge to play hits. Totally editable kits and sounds . . . grab your sticks and get to it.

                  This review relates to the pads only

                  Depending on the price you pay for this kit:
                  Excellent in comparison to similar price point pads ... AND ... Value compared to much higher priced pads.

                  The 12" pads have a decent (medium weight) playing response. If you "club" your drums, you will feel them bottoming out (but what's the point of clubbing electronic drums?)

                  IMPORTANT: The 12" pads stick sound & feel are much more pleasing to the ear (without the module's sound) than the 10" pad is.

                  As stated elsewhere, they are NOT as quiet as a mesh head, but these large targets allow me to practice closer to real drum kit technique than smaller pads.
                  Besides ... show me a REAL drum that feels as good as a Mesh head drum or pad.

                  Truthfully, I can more closley approximate a real drum feel with these 12" pads than I can with a V drum (though I love being able to play above my level of technique with that springy mesh head rebound, consistent across all of the drums)
                  And,I'm told a conversion to a mesh head is fairly easy(?)

                  I love my investment in the DM10X kit, I replaced both 10" pads with 12"'s.

                      I bought this kit to learn to play the drums. I bought the DM10 Pro kit with the Surge Cymbals and it is legit! I was able to unbox it and start using the drum brain. Almost no learning curve, it is super easy to figure out and has a ton of customization. The toms and cymbals sound and feel just like acoustic kits that I've messed around on. I recommend this kit to beginners and pros! I dig it!

                        I have only one week with the DM10X, but I felt at times that there are sounds that blend in some tom, suddenly the sound associated sounds rim.
                        I hope to get a good calibration between the trigger and sensitivity, but this takes time.
                        Preprogrammed kits have a lot of variety of sounds, but for someone used to playing acoustic, the frustration is not finding any acoustic drum simulating a pre-programmed from the beginning; this is a marketing mistake. For now do not know if I would recommend it, hopefully change your mind.

                        Alesis DM10X (6 piece Midi Drumkit)

                        By Zak Parker

                        from United States

                        Comments about Alesis DM10X 6-Piece Electronic Drum Set:

                        The Alesis DM10X (6 piece drumkit) is a "great midi kit" & well worth the investment into new technology. I'm enjoying using it as a double bass kit (a 7 piece kit total - with two seperate kick pads & two Axis X-L2 Longboard single pedals). I haven't gotten into the details or discovered all options offered with the DM10 "Brain" Module yet... I'm still currently blown away with all the preset voices before adding my other two "Real Acoustical Drumkits" sounds into it via ddrum triggers & vise versa for using the technology back on acoustic kits for "Live" performances/recordings. The only thing I'm not liking about the Alesis DM10X is the head tensioner lug bolts with nuts. They tend to back-off from set tensions, even during normal play modes. Wish it was like the tensioners on real drum hardware (probably copyrighted).. The other unliked quality about the Alesis DM10X is sometimes samples triggered on the rims activate while playing something else (another voicing) on the drum heads without even hitting the rim triggers... From vibration shocks. Maybe this is a manageable feature discovered in sensitivity settings if any. Playing on the Alesis DM10X has already increased my advanced performance pocket & comfy groove zone feel tremendously tighter than before. Now to just get guitarists & other musicians on the same page would be an accomplishment, ..without always blaming the drummer for their own time feel mistakes! UGGGHHHHHH!!!! haha
