Does it sit on top of the snare drum or do I remove the snare drum and put the pad in its place on the snare stand?

It fits well in the snare drum stand, has good weight, and it can be played on the snare drum. I prefer to use it on the snare drum stand when away from the kit. But, no problems on the drum.

It does not come with the drum throne. It come with one of set drum sticks. You can plug it into your computer USB or if you've amplifiers. I hope this answers your questions. Good luck to you!

The drum head is stationary and requires no further tuning. Presumably you're aware that the shell of the drum must be unrestricted (other than the ropes) in order to resonate the vibration of the drum head which is synthetic and is not affected by temp/ humidity changes. IN OTHER WORDS YOU MUST HOLD THE DRUM BY THE ROPES WHEN PLAYING IT. LAYING THE DRUM FLAT ON A SURFACE SUCH AS THE FLOOR OR TABLE THEN BEATING ON IT WILL PRO DUCE THE SOUND YOU DESCRIBED.

No, I have a cover on mine but it has a stand on it so I just place it on top and it works just fine not in the slot.

Not that i can tell. It's a bottom head, i like it on the tight side and i put it on my Ludwig coloisum snare. It's maple, 10 1/2" deep with 12 lugs and i use the extra wide snare wires. Not your "standard" snare drum. You can hear and see the drum on this video http://youtu.be/alszMZXWcds

No. I used it for another cymbal. Then used an extra circular pad by cutting a hole in the center and pushing it down over the top hi-hat. Also folded another extra pad in half and wedged it in between top and bottom hi-hats. I'm able to use the hi-hat pedal like this as well.

Hello,Unfortunately, I rejected the shipment as it arrived too late (I was moving and needed it for certain items and had to move without the cart). So I cannot answer your question. Did you check the manufacturers's website - Grizzly. If I were to guess, it appears that the rubber pad may be removable. Good Luck.

You can but the alesis mount for it and then buy an adjustable drum stand to support it or use a snare stand. It also works on a table top just fine

But what about the sensors? Do they pick up the force of the hit if you don't hit the pad right in the middle? Would you have to be precise about where you hit, or can you just hit anywhere along the surface of the pad and still get a drum sound?

It's made to be used with a snare drum stand. If you look underneath you'll find three one inch by one inch deep notches, one at the top and the other two near the bottom corners. I found a snare drum stand with extra wide legs measuring 21 inches between the feet otherwise it's easy to tip over.

Yes, sort of.....the snare attaches to a triangular block of wood which is glued in so that the snare ends touch the front, thin, face, but not right in the center. That way, there are more variations in sound available at different locations.

No it is one case that holds both the snare and the bells. There is also one stand that is used also. So you can't have the bells and snare set up at the same time, you have to take one off and then put the other on.

A table top would be too high, not angled correctly, and doesn't leave you the ability to work the foot pedals. I would definitely recommend using it on typical snare drum stand. I would also recommend a drum throne, stick holders, and a music stand. The stand could be a stand-alone or wall mounted. I use a Manhasset 5601 Model #56 Wall Music Stand. At some point you're going to want to swap out the pedals that come with it for something like the Yamaha HH-65 Hi-Hat pedal and a bass pedal, both of which would be near impossible to use if the DD65 was on a table.

A snare stand will work. You don't actually need any sort of stand. It can be placed on anything. If you like to sit and play, make sure you get a stand that will allow you to lower it low enough so you can sit and play comfortably. I don't know a ton about stands, sorry.

no, no stand, you can just sit it on a table top or something. but i would not recommend this kit. it might be ok as a toy for a kid, but other than that it is useless. if you are wanting to learn to play the drums look elsewhere.

No, it does not come with a stand. It has 3 recesses on the bottom to accept the 3 'fingers' of a standard, snare drum stand. However, the dd-65 is very heavy. I find that my snare stand tends to fall over when the dd-65 is on it. That's the bad news. The good news is that I find the dd-65 MUCH easier to play with the angle and height that the stand provides.

I just leave mine mounted on my snare stand. It does come in a cardboard box though, so it can be stored in that.
