I currently added so eletric drums to my kit but I don't have what I want to create the sounds I was looking for. I got the alesis DM5 module, it sounds great but I need certain sounds which I can change the effects or some how change the sound. Any modules out there that are at a affordable price I can do this with? or would a sampler be a better idea?

i have a td-6...it has over 1000 sounds, each with changable levels of delay and pitch....plus it has built in loops triggerable on and off, tons of percussion sounds and even things like voices, whistles, and car engines. you can get a used brain off ebay for a couple hundered bucks and its extremely simple to use.

Is that a yamaha or roland product?

that's a Roland Module.
Roland has become my preference, compared to Yammie or samplers.
Samplers can be much less user-friendly; the modules are really simple to operate and the recent ones have great sounds and flexibility. Unfortunately, they're not cheap. But in E-drums, you really do get what you pay for~

Roland TD20 is my module of choice, but even used they are priced kind of steep. A TD12 is very similar, but a little more affordable.

Something close to the DM-5, Roland TD-6 is another great tool. If you decide on the Roland you should pack up the DM-5 because the Roland has much more presets and samples. I believe you can update the TD-6, I may be wrong, I know the TD-20 has expansion cards and what not!

I love my Roland TD-12 but it was about $1100. You need to compare and figure out what you need and hopefully you can demo some at a local store. Below is a comparison chart. Be sure that you take into account the number of pads/cyms you'll need to trigger so you get a module with enough inputs for everything.
