Re: [DTXpress] V Drums vs DTXpress

2001-06-08 by Philip Guest

I went through the same dilemma before I bought my DTXpress.  I'm presuming
that you are referring to the Roland TD8 K V Custom kit with mesh heads. As
far as I'm concerned, the V Drums are superior in every way - they play more
like an acoustic kit, have more voices and kits and the sound module is far
easier to use than that of the DTXpress.  However, they are TWICE THE PRICE
of the DTXpress and, in my opinion, they are not twice as good so I could
not justify paying the premium for the V-Drums.  The DTXpress is an
excellent piece of kit which is more than capable of surpassing most
drummers requirements.

If money is no object, then you are a lucky sod and you may as well go for
the V-Drums.  Otherwise, I reckon that the DTXpress is the best real world
choice cos it offers the greatest value.
