Product Description
The SD5K Electronic drum kit has sensitive drum pads made of a durable, yet highly responsive, material that accurately captures every hit. All pads have adjustable rack placement and angle adjustments for unlimited customization to your playing style. This includes two cymbal pads and one hi-hat pad which have height and angle adjustments for a convenient, custom-tailored fit.The included hi-hat control pedal gives you the feel of a real high-hat pedal, providing instant hardware familiarity to your playing. Similar to an acoustic drum kit, the hi-hat functions as a closed hi-hat when pedal is stepped on, and open when the pedal is released.Unlike acoustic drum sets, the kick pad can be located independent of the toms for even greater customization to your body size and playing style.The SD5K is controlled through an easy-to-read bright multifunction LED display that shows all parameter settings on your kit so you'll always know where you're at.The sound module contains 237 voices and gives you plenty of sounds with which to customize your own drum kits. You can store up to 10 different custom kits, or use the 22 preset kits that come with the module for a head start. Also included are a reverb effect, a built-in metronome, and 48 preset songs to practice with.Lightweight aluminum construction provides the strength of steel, but without the weight. This means easy transportation to and from the audition, rehearsal, and gig. An easy to put tog...

 Not "Simmons" of old December 10, 2006

The pads are velocity sensitive and the cymbals only single zone, compared with Roland etc who have dual zone (this means you can get a ride and crash on the cymbal depending on how you hit it).
While you get quite a lot for your money here, the quality is not up to that of the basic Roland, Yamaha, Millenium,... kits and the sensitivity of the brain is not comparable IMO - and compared to the ddrum brains they are blown out of the sky.
Also, these drums are apparently not real "Simmons". I am told that there has been no permission granted to Medeli for use of the name 'Simmons', and "their unauthorised use of the name is currently the subject of legal action by the original inventor".
