Yes. Have fun.

A couple of things while you're in set-up mode. First, if you have 
room try to set it up away from a wall so you can walk all around it. 
It will make adjusting and cabling a lot easier, and you will want to 
adjust things for a while. Once you're happy, if you need to you can 
simply carry it to its final location as it's all very light. Second, 
don't worry too much about tidying the cables away until you're happy 
with the setup, then just use the velcro strips. Thirdly, make sure 
you're using the stereo and mono cables on the correct pads. The hi-
hat footswitch must have a stereo cable, not a mono. Lastly, the 
first thing you should do after switching your module on is 
a "factory reset" (check the user guide on how to do this). There's a 
bug or two in the software that might bite if you don't. Do this 
before you adjust anything else.
