I have no experience of cheap Chinese modules (as I have a Roland kit), but the general consensus (forums/YouTube/retailers) seems to be that triggering responses are more consistent on the “higher end” / better quality kits (Roland/Yamaha) and less likely to fail than on some cheaper kits.

I now use a MacBook, which seems to work far easier with E-Drums and EZD3, but when I used my Windows laptop I routed my portable device through a Yamaha AG03 mini mixer. So E-Drums into laptop via USB/midi, AG03 into laptop via USB, and phone (Spotify) and headphones plugged into the AG03. I don’t think Windows copes well with sound inputs/outputs. Justin at 65 Drums did a “Mac vs PC for triggering drum software in real time” on YouTube which explained it pretty well (which is why I bought a cheap used MacBook Pro and use that instead of my Windows PC)

It’s a brand new module. It’s Roland’s latest entry level replacement for the TD1. Unfortunately the TD1 preset doesn’t match the TD02 triggers
