I hope we hear some Korg and compare some other styles. I really like these comparisons as it helps make more informed decisions. How many stores in the U.S. could you compare side by side a Ketron, Roland and Yamaha





Paul, we have a slight difference of opinion smile

I recall a time that I thought Roland cymbals seemed lack luster..everybody else was clanging loud, and seemed to be the normal..

Then I listened closely to real acoustic drums...Roland in fact is dead on...They are very realistic..

Roland V-drums are considered to be the best in the business..

They react to dynamics..and are not full on..They sound like acoustic sets...unmiked as they should..

What you mentioned as balanced with the Yamaha midi set..the ride is annoying at best..it is louder than the drums...Just as annoying as a lousy drummer grin

For you guys that are use to the unrealistic statis quote drums..Roland has the tools to make the drums and cymbals just as annoying if you like smirk
