yeah, but having a acoustic is really impossible for me. i know rt could be put up with mesh skins but i would like to hear myself drumming too
i know im fussy haha, maybe i should save up more for a better e drums
i wonder if the alesis im looking for could do
rimshots
crossstick
cymbal choke, cymbal bell hit, normal cymbal sound (thats tri zone?)

go try google roland....
they have a chart where everything u need to know about their lower end td3 module to their flagship td20.
even low end can do double/triple zone triggering... it's just a matter on your trigger itself. dual or triple zone...
e-drums aren't cheap so why waste ur money...

yeah ur right bro mel... some people use gigging e-kits but those are spending close to about 30k+++....
and im talking about United States Dollars and not Singapore Dollars...
A good enough e-kit is a td3kv... period.

i've not seen the kit in question myself but you should pay attention to the quality of the hardware if you are really intending to get this kit.
also, the DM-5 module itself has always been marketed as a low cost module so therefore in terms of quality its definitely behind the roland modules. no stereo inputs, therefore no rimshots etc, no variable hihat, no input for external sound source also, meaning that you cannot mp3 player and play along, also no metronome. check out this site for a comparison of some of the more popular modules in the market.

to sum it up, you get what you pay for, the price is quite attractive. but i don't think its a good kit for home practice due to the lack of external inputs and metronome. its hard to determine the quality of the pads from the picture but the main problem with this kit is probably the drum module. as marc has mentioned before, you would be better off with a td3 kit, which is pretty fantastic for an entry level e-kit.

hello lachiplo...
maybe you can get a pearl rt second hand... get the alesis trigger IO module which comes with a software drum module on ebay.. ard 300 sgd... and then build ur own triggers which is not too hard.. check this site up.. http://mikemx3000.tripod.com/index.html
That is if your drum is in your room next to your comp or if u have a laptop... this will be good and you will be able to play a mesh head kit which is usually very expensive...
