<p><strong>Rating:</strong> 5 out of 5 stars<br />
The Evans G1 clear drum head is a great, all-around drum head well suited for Jazz and other drum styles where an open sound is desired. Little lighter than the Evans G2. I personally have been playing with G1s for a while now and they last and wear well. They&#8217;ve been great sounding heads and very versatile for different ranges of tuning.<br />

<p><!--Title--><strong>Yamaha Yamaha Rock Tour 4-Piece Drum Shell Pack with Matching Snare Drum</strong></p>
<p>Designed from the ground up as affordable, high-quality Yamaha drums with an edgy look.<br />
This Yamaha Rock Tour 4-Piece Drum Shell Pack includes a 22&#8243; x 18&#8243; R-Version kick drum, 12&#8243; x 8&#8243; rack tom, 16&#8243; x 15&#8243; floor tom, and a 14&#8243; x 6&#8243; matching snare drum.</p>
<p><b>Big Leaf Mahogany Drum Shells</b><br />
Known for its great beauty and durability, big leaf mahogany has been used for centuries to craft high-quality wood products. The wood delivers a rich and warm mid-low range tone with a short, natural decay. These Yamaha drums also use 100% reforested environmentally controlled material.</p>
<p><b>R-Version Kick Drum</b><br />
For drummers that prefer an open, fat sound Yamaha&#8217;s &#8220;R-Version&#8221; kick drum shells are designed with no tom mounts to maximize the drum shell&#8217;s tone potential.</p>
<p><b>YESS!</b><br />
The tom drum shell is equipped with Yamaha&#8217;s original YESS mount, which minimizes mount-to-shell contact—to enhance the Yamaha drum&#8217;s resonance, increase dynamic range, and produce longer sustain.</p>
<p><b>Floor Tom Legs</b><br />
Large vertical floor tom brackets are fitted for drummers who play with intensity. </p>
<p><b>Kickin&#8217; Front Head</b><br />
The kick drum head is emblazoned with a prominently positioned Yamaha logo mark that looks sharp and is easy to spot even when the Yamaha drums are positioned at the back of the stage.</p>
<p><b>Pinstripe Drumheads</b><br />
Tom and floor toms are fitted with Remo Pinstripe Heads for massive punishment and durability.</p>
<p>If you have your sights set on becoming a rock drummer, it&#8217;s important that the drums you are playing will help you reach your goal. The Yamaha Rock Tour Series drums that comprise this drum shell pack are the perfect choice, delivering a solid, powerful sound with sharp attack that will cut through and get you noticed. Hardware and tom drums offer quality inherited from Yamaha&#8217;s high-end kits, and the sets provide excellent durability and performance.</p>
<p>Cymbals and hardware not included.</p>

This beautiful, limited edition, feathered walnut snare drum is priced&#8230;well, incredibly&#8230;The wood pattern on it looks like something out of a fine furniture store. The hardware is simple and elegant. Pearl snare drums are great sounding and can be tuned to accommodate any style of playing. Did I mention the price? Incredible&#8230;It would be a beautiful addition to any set.<br />

I love the Gretsch Catalinas. They&#8217;re constructed well and their sound is unique. This is a great drum set for the entry level drummer or the drummer who is a little strapped for cash. Great hardware and the finish is beautiful. They&#8217;ve put in a lot of high quality features for a set that&#8217;s priced so low.<br />

dw pedals are the stuff. Made with high quality materials, craftsmanship and leading-edge design, these bass drum pedals help the drummer get the motion and sound they want. I have personally owned dw pedals for years and love them. Attention to detail and performance seems to be the driving force at dw when it comes to their drum set lines and hardware.<br />

<p><img class="alignleft size-full wp-image-34" title="details" src="http://prodrumreviews.com/wp-content/uploads/2009/10/details.jpg" alt="details" width="104" height="29" /></p>
<p><!--Title--><strong>Alesis DM10 Pro Electronic Drum Set</strong></p>
<p>Alesis DM10 Pro Kit is the product of extensive research and development efforts. Based around the DM10 sound module, the DM10 Pro Kit features Alesis&#8217; RealHead drum pads, SURGE Cymbals made of real cymbal alloy and an ErgoRack mounting system.</p>
<p>DM10 Module<br />
You will immediately notice the DM10 module&#8217;s outstanding sound quality. This drum sound module contains true drum, cymbal, and percussion sounds—built from real samples of classic studio drums and prized cymbals. Drummers will find some of the most in-demand acoustic drum sounds from legendary drum brands, a huge arsenal of top producers&#8217; go-to snare drums, real American, Canadian, Chinese, and Turkish cymbals, and a choice selection of classic drum machine and electronic percussion sounds that have fueled the biggest hit records.</p>
<p>Discerning ears will notice that each sound is actually a series of different samples: multiple dynamic-level samples and articulations are all built in so as you play harder and softer, the drum or cymbal changes its timbre, not just its volume. This engineered realism is known as Dynamic Articulation, an Alesis exclusive. You can play with or without reverb for different room sounds and enjoy a wide variety of rimshots, rim clicks, and different stick-placement sounds on the cymbals. For example, a hi-hat&#8217;s sound depends on a number of factors: how open or closed the pedal is, how hard it is struck, and other variables resulting in 40 different sounds—plus foot chick and heel splash.</p>
<p>The DM10 module not only has a breathtaking collection of sounds onboard, it is also the world&#8217;s first drum-sound module that enables you to load new sound sets via USB connection from your computer. This means that your sounds will always stay fresh, current and cutting edge.</p>
<p>You can also use the DM10 as a trigger-to-MIDI interface for performing and tracking with software drum modules such as BFD, Toontrack, and Reason, among others. For practice, you can play along with the tracks in the DM10&#8242;s internal sequencer, mix in an iPod or other MP3 player and play along.</p>
<p>The DM10 module has 12 trigger inputs, perfect for creating custom configurations with up to 24 different pads. The DM10&#8242;s top-panel mixer gives you easy access to creating custom mixes.</p>
<p>RealHead Drum Pads<br />
The DM10 Pro Kit has Alesis&#8217; acoustic-feeling RealHead pads in 8&#8243; and 10&#8243; sizes. The dual-zone pads feature real mylar drumheads and real triple-flanged counterhoops for the feel you demand. The snare and tom pads are dual zone, enabling you to perform rimshots, rim clicks, or assign other sounds such as wind chimes, cymbals, gongs, and cowbells on the tom rims.</p>
<p>Surge Cymbals<br />
The DM10 Pro Kit comes with premium SURGE cymbals, the only serious choice in electronic cymbals. The kit includes a 12&#8243; SURGE hi-hat cymbal, a 13&#8243; SURGE crash cymbal with choke and a 16&#8243; SURGE triple-zone ride cymbal with choke. Comprised of a genuine alloy cymbal coated with a clear sound-dampening layer, SURGE cymbals feel like acoustic cymbals because they begin life as just that. The crash and ride cymbals feature large choke strips on the undersides for even more attention to accurate cymbal control. The SURGE ride also features multiple-zone triggering on the bell, face, and edge. The SURGE hi-hat cymbal offers continuously variable control using the included pedal.</p>
<p>ERGORACK<br />
The DM10 Pro Kit features an ergonomically curved, chrome-plated ErgoRack for mounting the pads and module on. It is a heavy gauge, heavy duty rack—and supremely adjustable. The ErgoRack is large enough to enable you to add on additional drum pads and SURGE cymbals. You can even mount acoustic drums, cymbals, and percussion instruments on this roadworthy system.</p>
<p>The ErgoRack employs standard 1-1/2&#8243; tubing for compatibility with virtually all drum manufacturers&#8217; rack hardware. The rack features quick-release, metal clamps for fast setup and tear down. The crash and ride cymbals mount on large, knurled boom cymbal arms that are height adjustable right in the rack down tubes. The DM10 Pro Kit comes with tom mounts that enable freely adjustable mounting. Drummer-friendly wing-screws are present on all important rack clamps and pads for ease of adjustment without reaching for a drum key. The drum pads mount on standard 10.5mm L-rods with low-slip, knurled mounting surfaces.</p>
<p>The DM10 Pro Kit: The flagship of the Alesis electronic percussion line.</p>

Nice Electronic drum set with great sounds built in. Hi tech engineering and advanced electronics make this electronic drum kit what it is. Alesis is coming out with some very nice electronic drum sets and giving the bigger manufacturers a run for their money. Speaking of money, the price on this Alesis DM10 Pro Electronic Drum Set is truly a great deal for everything you get. Very responsive, mutli-zone pads and cymbals make it a winner. The DM10 drum module is amazing and the ability to add additional drum sounds and the ability to interface with a computer makes the possibilities endless. How cool it is to plug your set into your computer and record. Check this great electric drum kit out.<br />

<p><!--Title--><strong>Mapex Meridian Birch Standard Drum Shell Pack</strong><br />
 A tour-friendly set that&#8217;s lightweight and durable.</p>
<p>The Mapex 2009 Meridian Birch Standard Shell Pack is appointed with 6-ply 100% birch drum shells. You get incredible high-end attack, a narrower midrange, and plenty of bottom end punch with Meridian drums. Some of the main appointments include the Mapex I.T.S. Mounting System, which has minimal contact for better tone, and tom holders with an extra cymbal arm. The Mapex Meridian drum set also includes a full set of double-braced stands and a solid kick drum pedal with a Tri-Tonal Beater.</p>

<p>The included tom holders are light with little bulk, offering a sleek look and less of a load. The corner friendly double tom mounts have a middle cymbal arm position (not included) for fewer tripod stands on the floor. The Mapex stands feature form-fitting memory locks, designed to fit the bottom contour of the mounting bracket to eliminate slipping for quick and easy setup night after night.</p>

Great looking, very affordable drum kit from Mapex. <b>I can&#8217;t believe the price of this birch drum kit.</b> Comes with Mapex&#8217;s I.T.S. Mounting System for better resonance and less restriction. This would truly be a great set for the beginning drummer.<br />

<p><!--Title--><strong>Korg Wavedrum</strong></p>
<p>Start with a real drum head that responds naturally to brushes, sticks, mallets, or even your bare hands. Add in a sensitive acoustic transducer, advanced DSP synthesis, and hundreds of superior samples. The result is the astounding Korg Wavedrum. Delivering accurate and imaginative sounds from around the globe, Wavedrum creates an interactive, organic, and spellbinding playing experience that no trigger-based system can match. The affordable 2nd generation Korg WAVEDRUM is sonically richer, more sensitive, and packed with enough power and expression to create its own musical legend. The WAVEDRUM&#39;s wide dynamic range mimics that of an acoustic drum. WAVEDRUM responds perfectly to your action, from subtly nuanced tapping and stroking to aggressive, repetitive strikes.The original Korg WAVEDRUM amazed the world back in 1994. This legendary musical instrument was instantly famous for its innovative design, performance possibilities, and unique sounds. Now the Korg WAVEDRUM&#39;s broad variety of sonic offerings ranges from traditional acoustic percussion instruments to new and unique percussive sounds. With WAVEDRUM, instruments that normally require special techniques to play, such as the tabla, or conga, can be played with ease. In addition, WAVEDRUM establishes its own way of playing, granting you unparalleled levels of expression, full of originality and depth. Compact and lightweight in design, Korg WAVEDRUM is ideal in all performance situations&mdash;from casual playing through to a full-on recording session or a live concert performance.Totally unique sounds and innovative ways to play open the door to new musical journeys.   The Korg WAVEDRUM delivers inspiration and satisfaction to creative percussionists seeking new realms of expressiveness and sounds. Moving beyond traditional drum and percussion sounds, WAVEDRUM also provides totally new and unique sounds that are not available in the real world, and offers new ways of playing to achieve new levels of musical expression. With a Korg WAVEDRUM, you can change the pitch randomly with each hit, or play melodic phrases by choosing a musical scale and applying pressure to the head. Traditional hand-drum techniques, such as adding pitch and tonal changes to a strike by pressing the head, were previously unobtainable on an electronic instrument. Korg WAVEDRUM processes and responds to these intimate performance gestures as no other percussion instrument can. These same techniques provide a wealth of performance possibilities. For example, WAVEDRUM can produce sitar and tambura sounds at the same time. You can produce tanpura sounds alone by hitting the head, adding the sitar sounds by applying pressure to the head before hitting it. Applying further pressure can change the pitch of the sitar continuously within the selected scale. These and other performance characteristics are unique to the Korg WAVEDRUM.Multiple sensors and playing techniques deliver previously unimaginable expressiveness</p>

I&#8217;ve been scouring the internet for information on this cool electronic drum. It&#8217;s a very cool, interactive drum that can stand alone or be used in conjunction with any acoustic or electric drum kit. Play it with your hands, sticks, brushes&#8230;however you want. What&#8217;s cool is that the sound triggering goes beyond the head itself. The entire top surface can be interacted with. Cool drum&#8230;kind of pricey, however.<br />

<p><!--Title--><strong>Alesis DM10 Studio Drum Kit Review</strong></p>
<p>The professional DM10 Studio Kit 6-piece electronic drum set supplies natural-feeling RealHead drum pads. The Alesis DM10 kit also includes low-noise-emitting DMPad Cymbals, the groundbreaking DM10 drum module, and a compact, flexible StealthRack.</p>
<p><b>DM10 Module</b><br />
You will notice the DM10 module&#8217;s outstanding sound quality, immediately. This drum-sound module contains true drum, cymbal, and percussion sounds, created from real samples of classic studio drums and prized cymbals. Drummers will find some of the most in-demand acoustic drum sounds from legendary drum brands including: a huge arsenal of top-producers&#8217; go-to snare drums; real American, Canadian, Chinese, and Turkish cymbals; and a choice selection of classic drum machine and electronic percussion sounds which have fueled the biggest hit records.</p>
<p>The drummer&#8217;s discerning ears will notice that each of the Alesis DM10 module&#8217;s sounds are actually a series of different samples; multiple dynamic-level samples and articulations are all built in, so as you play harder and softer, the drum or cymbal changes its timbre—not just its volume. This engineered realism is known as Dynamic Articulation&#8211;an Alesis exclusive.</p>
<p>The Drummer can play the Alesis DM10 electronic drum kit with or without reverb for different room sounds and enjoy a wide variety of rim shots, rim clicks, and different stick-placement sounds on the cymbals. For example, a hi-hat&#8217;s sound depends on a number of factors—how open or closed the pedal is, how hard it is struck, and many other variables. The result: 40 different sounds, plus foot chick and heel splash.</p>
<p>The DM10 Studio Kit&#8217;s sound module not only has an awesome collection of sounds onboard, it is also the world&#8217;s first drum-sound module that enables the drummer to load new sound sets via USB connection from your computer. This means that your sounds will always stay fresh, current, and cutting edge.</p>
<p>The demanding drummer can also use the Alesis DM10 as a trigger-to-MIDI interface for performing and tracking with software drum modules such as BFD, Toontrack, and Reason, among others. For practice, you can play along with the tracks in the DM10&#8242;s internal sequencer, mix in an MP3 player, and play along.</p>
<p>The Alesis DM10 module has 12 trigger inputs, perfect for creating custom configurations. The DM10&#8242;s top-panel mixer gives the drummer easy access to creating custom mixes.</p>
<p><b>Alesis Realhead Drum Pads</b><br />
The DM10 Studio Kit features Alesis&#8217; acoustic-feeling RealHead pads in 10&#8243; and 8&#8243; sizes. The dual-zone pads feature real mylar drumheads and real triple-flanged counterhoops for the feel you demand. The snare and tom pads are dual-zone enabled, which allows you to perform rimshots, rim clicks, or assign other sounds such as wind-chimes, cymbals, gongs and cowbells on the tom rims.</p>
<p>RealHead snare and tom pads ared mounted on standard 10.5mm L-rods with low-slip, knurled mounting surfaces.</p>
<p>You can use virtually any single or double kick pedal with the RealHead Kick Pad (kick pedal is sold separately), or split the DM10&#8242;s kick input with a Y-cable and connect an optional second kick pad for the pedal feel you prefer.</p>
<p><b>Alesis DMPad Cymbals</b><br />
The DM10 Studio Kit includes a set of four low-noise Alesis DMPad cymbals. The electronic drum set includes 1 DMPad hi-hat cymbal, 2 DMPad crash cymbals, and a 3-zone DMPad ride cymbal. DMPad cymbals provide a rubberized playing surface for a great balance between natural cymbal feel and low stick-on-pad sound. The ride and crash cymbal feature large choke triggers on the undersides for superior, accurate cymbal control. The DMPad ride also features multi-zone triggering on the bell, face, and edge. The DMPad hi-hat cymbal and RealHat pedal give you continuously variable control from wide open to tightly closed.</p>
<p><b>Alesis StealthRack</b><br />
Alesis equips the DM10 Studio Kit with an ergonomically curved, black aluminum StealthRack. The StealthRack is fully adjustable and large enough to easily accommodate adding on additional pads, yet takes up a fraction of the space of an acoustic kit so it&#8217;s perfect for studios and rehearsal spaces. It employs standard 1-1/2&#8243; tubing for compatibility with virtually all drum manufacturers&#8217; rack hardware.</p>
