Hi guys!

I would really need you to answer mw a few quick questions.

I am about to buy a DTXpress III standard Kit. I am drumming for about 8 years now, but only on an acoustic set. The main reason I am considering an electronic kit is that I want to study at home (in an apartment). So, ... I would have a few questions for you people that have an electronic kit, and especially about the DTXpress III.

I would like to know:

1. Does it make a lot of an "acoustic noise". I mean how silent would it be? Would it bother the neighbours if I am studying at home in my appartment?

2. How hard is it to switch from the acoustic kit? I mean the pads being smaller than real size drumskins, and the feel of the pads.

3. How close is the TP65S as a sound with rim shot and everything tot the real snare?

And basically, ... I really want to know if this would really be a good investment, because for sure it won't be cheap.

Thanks a lot guys and I am really looking forward to your answers, cause it's very important step for me.
