The Pyle PTED01 Electronic Table Top Drum Kit is an All-in-One wonder. It's super-customizable, lightweight and portable - the ultimate tabletop kit for the drummer on-the-go. Each of the seven pads has touch sensitivity for an accurate response. Use one of the built-in 25 presets, or create and store your own kit by choosing from 215 different percussion voices. Use the internal speakers, or envelope yourself in percussive rhythms by plugging in your own headphones. This kit comes with two pedals so you can get the real feel of a kick drum and hi-hat pedal. You can connect this unit to your computer using the USB cable - it'll function as a MIDI controller for your favorite computer software to get even more functionality. You can also play along with the built-in songs. This kit includes a built-in metronome and reverb effect. It runs on batteries or the included AC adaptor.

GOOD AND OPERATIONAL, TONE COULD USE IMPROVEMENT

GOOD STARTER PRACTICE SET

Good sound and portable!

This is a pretty good drum kit for the price. It has a nice variety of pre-programmed kits and you can create your own custom kits which is nice. The sound quality is good with one exception (see below). It works well as a MIDI controller so I'm very pleased with that. There are a couple drawbacks though. There is an annoying "fizzy" noise after every hit, as the sound trails off. This is common in cheaper digital instruments but I was disappointed to find it so prominent in this unit. Also, the foot pedals are terrible - they are small and very stiff plastic. When you press hard enough to make sure you register a hit it will frequently register as a double hit, and yet if you don't press it hard it won't register a hit at all. It is difficult to find the right touch, and this makes it nearly impossible to keep a steady rhythm going. I'm giving this 4 stars because I think it's a good value for what I paid, but it's more like 3 stars in terms of its usefulness. If I could give it 3.5 stars that would be about right.
