I'm using it with my Ludwig Breakbeats because the BD is to small for rehearsing with a full band, I'm running it through a Roland TM-2 with a split Y stereo jack cable. I set this up in 2 minutes, the system is pretty simple. The response is ok, with some double triggering here and there, I guess I'll have to learn a little about this and find the "fine tuning" settings on the Roland module.
