OK, sounds good! I am thinking about the TD-8K set, which I think is a part
of the V-drum line. The price over here is about $4000,- The TD-10 set is
twice the price though...

I hope it is easier to play the drums (or rather have a drummer play the
beats) than to program by hand with the mouse/keyboard. I find it to be
quite time consuming and perhaps not what I enjoy the most by making music.

It is mainly for pop/rock.
