I was disappointed with this module when I first set it up and began tuning. It was to replace a DM5 module that has been in studio use for 15 years now, but the "feel" and response was just not there. Alesis does not make clear the actual version numbers of its firmware update on their site, but I downloaded the latest anyway dated Nov. of 2014. Inside however were updates for the DM10 from Dec. of 2015. After applying the updates, this is exactly what I was hoping for in the first place.
The trigger sensitivity and response is better than the DM5 ever was and the crosstalk is easily managed. No more phantom triggering and it plays as fast as I can with all triggers acting and sounding as intended. We use custom rack mounted drums that were built in our shop and all zones function perfectly now. For anyone looking for a responsive drum module that easily connects to midi software and devices, I highly recommend the DM10 after updates. Ignore the 2014 date on the latest firmware on the Alesis site, and install it. It makes a world of difference.
