Hey could you please recommend a hi hat stand and pedal
Kick pedal, expensive but worth it (Use the plastic beater, not the felt side)

Overkill for beginner? I live in a townhome with shared walls, so volume control is important. I've been looking at electric drums that are in the 4-500 range and trialing one at a local store, it felt and sounded extremely cheap. As a beginner, I'm wondering if I bite the bullet and get this or just live with the cheap models. New to all of this, so hoping the community has some recommendations.

Quote from helloooomcfly :
If you're looking for a good two-legged hi-hat stand, I'd recommend either a Tama Iron Cobra or a Pearl Eliminator (or Red Line.) Both are double-chain driven and the matching kick pedals (also doube-chain driven) are pretty good too. The older Pearl Eliminator pedals also have a few cams to increase/decrease the foot pedal tension to your liking can even be converted to belt drive, if you're into that.) I still have my old Eliminator Hi-Hat Stand for my acoustic kit and want another one for my e-kit.
Thanks! Yeah I went with Speed Cobra stuff, feels very high quality. I was originally gonna go with DW stuff because I had some 5000 and 9000 series pedals before, but I was reminded/clued in by reviews that the longevity isn't necessarily there, and apparently not on par with Tama and other brand stuff. That tracks with me- the 5000 pedal I had had a piece of the pedalboard break off where the chain meets it.

Excellent choice! I was very happy with my Iron Cobra hi-hat pedal, until I went all Pearl pedals (kinda miss it to be honest.) Anyway, congrats and keep on rockin! 🤘

It's a price jump, but curious of everyone's thought:
I'm far from an expert drummer but have built some proficiency on the trusty Alesis Nitro. I've reached a point where I want something more. Should I look all the way to this, or maybe consider the Alesis Crimson SE 2 or Simmons 1250 as the next step?

Just curious if there are any lefties out there using this kit, and if so do you notice any subtle issues when setting it up "backwards". I know that it would seem obvious that there aren't, but after almost 50 years playing on older, "classic" sets, there is always something that just doesn't feel right.

Not a lefty, but just put together the set today. Manual has instructions for left-handed and has illustrations of what it'd look like. Don't think you will have any issue

Having owned an Alesis Crimson II kit, I can tell you the samples MAY NOT be as nice as this kit (haven't played anything Roland yet,) but cheaper in price. Plus, you can add a 2nd crash, a 4th tom and even a Pro-X hat to simulate the feel of an acoustic hi-hat, if you prefer. Additionally, I added some Roland cymbals for a more realistic feel and got rid of those cheap, plastic frisbee cymbals. Again, not the last e-kit you'll ever own, but a decent upgrade, if you're looking.

That's exactly what I did with the Nitro after about a year- expanded with the extra crash and tom. Doing more research, thanks for your response.

I started out with a Yamaha in the $900 range (DTX522) and I felt like this was a good second set.

I have an old TD3 from years ago. I liked it because I could practice any time of the day or night but quickly became tired of it. It's nothing like an acoustic kit. This is a top notch deal, but make sure you understand what you're buying. Try playing one at your local music store first.
Also a
Little tip, try smaller diameter sticks. You're going to wreck your joints if you still use 5B on these pads. It's like using a hammer. Go 7A.

Question for lefties; if you were starting from scratch… would you set this up lefty or righty? I'm a lefty who learned guitar right handed. Not sure if drums are the same in that way.

7A is too light. I'd go with a 5A.
