But I’m getting ahead of myself just a little.
What I’m going to do in this article is introduce you to the 6 basic kits that Roland manufactures today. You may see older kits still available online or in a store, but these are the models that Roland touts on their website as of this writing.

Are you looking for a great sounding electronic drum kit that you can pack up quickly and carrying to a practice session or a gig all by yourself? If so, then you’ve come to the right place, because the Roland TD-4KP (P = Portable) fits the bill.
If you just need a small e-kit for a tight space, you’ve found the right one in the TD-4KP as well. This set has a tiny footprint compared to most others in the market.
In the review, I’ll take a look with you at this sometimes overlooked offering from Roland. I think you’ll see that, just because it’s small, doesn’t mean it’s lacking in quality. Continue reading “Roland TD-4KP Review: The Portable Kit for the Drummer on the Go”
The Yamaha DTX720K and DTX760K aren’t quite the company’s top of the line electronic drum sets, but they’re close. Both of these DTX700 series kits are high quality sets of instruments.
It’s unfortunate, then, that it is so hard to find complete information on these kits. Yamaha’s own videos no longer match their offerings. The videos are about the DTX700K, DTX750K, and DTX790K, as of this writing. But they sell only the DTX720K and DTX760K.
In this review of the Yamaha DTX700 series, I’ll do my best to explain what you apparently do get when you purchase one of these kits. I’ll also show the differences between; that is, upgrades and additions from the Yamaha DTX720K to the Yamaha DTX760K. Continue reading “Yamaha DTX720K and DTK760K Electronic Drum Set Review”

When you want a solid, midrange electronic drum set that will last you a good, long time, one brand to look at is Yamaha and their DTX502 sets.
I’ll cover all three of their current 502 models in this review – the DTX522K, DTX532K, and DTX562K – because they are so similar to each other.

In this article I’ll briefly look at the sets available (plus one discontinued model) in all four of their series – the 400, the 502, the 700, and the 900. (I’d be interested to know why it’s the 502 and not the 500 series.) Continue reading “Yamaha Electronic Drum Kit Series Overview and Review”
Quick to setup and compact in size, the Alesis DM Lite has light-up LED drum and cymbal pads that produce a blue mini light show around the rims when hit. Continue reading “Alesis DM Lite Electronic Drum Kit Review: Too Lite or Just Right?”
This confusing set of names begged for a comparison of the three sets, so that’s really what this article will be – a look at the DM6 Nitro, the DM6 USB, and the Nitro.
We’ll see by the end of the article which one is the most recommended. Continue reading “Alesis DM6 Nitro Review: DM6, USB, Nitro…Huh?”
Let’s take a look at these two similar sets to see which one would suit you best. Continue reading “Alesis DM10 Studio (Mesh) Review: Is It Really Fit for the Studio?”
I might as well tell you up front (because you’ve probably already guessed it anyway) that the main difference between these two sets is that the one has mesh drums and the other doesn’t. Continue reading “Alesis DM10 X and DM10 X Mesh Kit Review: To Mesh or Not to Mesh?”
There are three Alesis electronic drum kits that use basically the same “brain”. These are the Crimson, the Command, and the Forge kits. In this article I’ll take a look at the Command kit vs the Forge kit, so you can spot their similarities and differences. If you want to compare this to the Command set, check out this article.
