For the money, this kit is packed with features and great sounding kits. Easy set-up and easy understanding of the module. Although I no longer play in a live setting, the module boots up fast enough for a home player like me. Thus far, I have had no issue with triggering or module programming...everything is pretty much self explanatory. This is an upgrade from my older Alesis kit and I couldn't be happier!
