What does a drum module do?
The drum module creates or produces the drum kit sounds or other sounds selected by the drummer. By itself, a drum module cannot play or sound drum beats. Even when drum pads and/or triggers are connected to a drum module, the drum module by itself does not make any audible sound.
Can I change the drum module?

Do I need a drum module?
If you don’t have any kind of trigger-to-MIDI interface or drum module, I would suggest getting a drum module. It not only acts as the trigger-to-MIDI interface, but also contains the sounds you’ll trigger. There are many drum modules out there, both new and used, at all price levels.
