Not only does it include 8-inch snare and tom pads fitted with noise-killing mesh heads, but you get a fully standalone kick drum pad, a pair of 10-inch, dual-zone cymbal pads (which can also be choked like real cymbals).

It's got tons of sounds on board (385 in total) too, arranged into 40 preset kits to keep things interesting. In addition to having an aux input for connecting your phone's audio into the module, there's USB MIDI so you can hook up to a computer.
