The 5 Best DTX Pro Drum modules (2023 reviews)

The alesis kick pedal's material feels more premium than its price would suggest. The turbo mesh kit is suitable for operation in a 220V environment and features an auto-switching power supply for this purpose. The mechanism on the supplied pedals are custom designed, different to the pedals found on an acoustic kit. It's sturdy and completely adjustable in every way.

The Nitro mesh has a kick tower and you use a standard acoustic kick pedal and beater. The mesh quality on the drum heads is reactive and enjoyable to play. It is great for a beginner to practice quietly with headphones at home. You can use this kit with any software that can capture midi notes and record from the USB port. This is a good kit for the value, definitely for beginners or kids.

Why We Like This:

Great for beginners to learn on
You can certainly assemble the turbo mesh kit for a left-hand player
Lots of fun and good quick set up for a wedding gig or auditions
Easy to assemble and surprisingly well built

Best For someone With Some experience: Alesis DTX Pro Drum Module

Buy on Amazon

The alesis dtx pro drum module might be a relatively new release, but it's still nothing short of impressive this year, thanks to multiple price cuts and added new features over the past few months. This drum is affordable and looks great. It does not include the hihat stand or kick pedal. It allows even more sounds, lapping and recording. It is easy to custom mix each drum because it has a fader for every drum. If you’re buying it to learn motion and technique, it’s great, but if you want to record or play live with it, not so much.

This is definitely a step up from all other alesis kits, which are usually made for beginners. Compared to a Roland, it definitely has more of a realistic feel.

Why We Like This:

Mesh, rack and the stands are good qualities
Definitely has more of a realistic feel
You can make and store your own kits on removable memory card
Mesh heads are awesome, and knock on wood

Best For professional: Yamaha DTX Pro Drum Module

Buy on Amazon

We know from years of feedback from readers, customers and amazon sellers, what most people want in a convenient and appropriate module. The yamaha dtx pro drum module is exactly that - it's a simple module that hits all the right notes. The newly designed RS6 rack system* gives you the freedom to set up as needed with a robust rack that you can set and forget. It has a layer cushion structure that offers the perfect feel with unparalleled comfort, regardless of the strength of the stroke. Up to 14 pads can be connected to the trigger input terminals that can be connected individually, making it simple to create a hybrid setup with acoustic drums by connecting only those cables you need. The USB terminal can send and receive midi, and also sends and receives audio data when connected directly to a computer or smart device, allowing you to send sound directly from the dtx to daw software or a smart device.

It can be used in combination with more delicate cymbal work.

Why We Like This:

Include drum monitor/amp and other equipment
Ambience, comp, effect knobs as kit modifier to create your own sound
Outstanding sound quality for an e-drum kit
Works in conjunction with the unit and headphones also

Best With Bluetooth: Yamaha Drum Set

Buy on Amazon

The yamaha drum set should be able to handle its purpose and duties with ease. The sound is no louder than using a practice pad, even quieter. It includes a yamaha fp6110 belt-drive bass drum pedal and a kp65 kick pad that provide an authentic kick drum feel. It is powered by the dtx402 module that features 287 professional acoustic drum and percussion sounds with accent articulation for dynamic expression. The drum module just passes the audio through along with the drum playing. The snare and control pad pivot around the leg they are mounted on, so you can move it closer to the center but as a consequence it will move closer to you.

The brain module has programmed sets within it programming. It allows "half-open" hi-hat sounds for expression usually found on much higher priced kits.

Why We Like This:

Built-in interactive training modules to help improve rhythm and speed
Stereo drum sounds sampled directly from acoustic drums and cymbals
Beautiful little drum set.great for practicing.very high quality
Solid frame, great drum heads, great sound quality
