Of course the price is not cheap, but it is so practical and fast that once you have tested it you can't do without it!
Setting up a snare drum or tom in 3 minutes!
On the other hand, the settings recommended on the TAMA site are too weak --_ for example the snare drum will instead be set to 85/75 instead of the 65/70 announced.
Otherwise, really no regrets.Automatically translated
