First and foremost, the drum samples sound very real. The set plays nice and is sturdy. On a good rug everything stays put. I really like the modular rack system. It allows you to spread out the set as you see fit. You can also get plenty of Hight on the cymbal and toms. I like the controller, but mounting on the hi-hat stand, while handy, limits you a bit on adjusting the height of the stand (very minor gripe. I had one defective clamp, but B&H along with Efnote straitened that right out for me.
