Well, you've come to the right place to be recommended the Yamaha
range! The DTXplorer is the cheapest but I haven't played it - maybe
someone here has and can pass comment. There are cheaper kits on the
market based on the Alesis module I think, but I don't know much about
it. The DM5 module is reasonable but I am not sure the pads sold with
it are regarded very highly.

There is some company called Roland around as well, but they tend to
be the most expensive on the market. They have brought out a new
cheap kit - the HD1 - but the reports I have heard about it are not
good. It is quite cramped with no adjustment and horrible pedals.

There are quite a few discussions on the subject at

Be a better pen pal. Text or chat with friends inside Yahoo! Mail. See how.
