Alesis Command vs Surge Drum Module.

This is a short 6 min or so video about the command and surge kits . I have the surge kit but upgraded the drum module to the Command kit.
If you want to hear just the sounds . skip to 5 minute mark.

Finally someone explained and demo'd the differences between the two. I am in the market for an E-Kit for my daughter for her first kit, as well as for me to mess around with. So I even called Alesis, and they told me the main difference was only the module being the $200 difference, but that the Command has a lot more options. They did not tell me that there was a difference in the sound quality.

THANKS, THAT'S EXACTLY WHAT I WANTED TO KNOW

[@paulmiller8367]

That's awesome dude how did it hookup is it the same hookup on the surg kit ? I have the same kit and want too change the module like you did Ty for posting

[@KapturedbyKerry]

When I updated the module I got a new cable set but I think the surge cable set works too.

[@RickyMontijo]

Anyone know if the new module supports a ride with a bell zone

[@Johnnygrafx]

So will the forge module fit on the surge kit? I got a surge and I'm looking to upgrade.

[@KapturedbyKerry]

The Forge and Command module are the same . So yes it will work.

@@KapturedbyKerry cool thanks. Being able to use my own samples is a game changer.

[@albind8622]

When you are playing songs, is the sound much better or is it just a little difference in the quality between the two modules? Thanks!

[@KapturedbyKerry]

I think the sound is way better. The command module samples are better.

@@KapturedbyKerry thank you!

[@scottallen6133]

I'm a bigginer, do the command module fit the surge holder module? Also can I connect my phone or what ever to the command and play alongside music from Spotify?
Thanks for the info, I do hear the command as a better sound.

[@KapturedbyKerry]

The command module I upgrade too had a new mount with it. I don't remember if the surge mount would work or not.
With the command module you can connect you phone or what to it and play along. You can also put songs onto a jump drive and play along with it.

[@KapturedbyKerry]

Side note. I'm very much a beginner myself.
