Q: can i replace the current mesh heads on my alesis command and put these on it?

Yes these will work on your Alesis kit.

Q: What is the difference between this 18" head and the 18" bass drum head? Why is the latter $10 more?

The metal U-shaped hoop on a bass drum mesh head projects out farther from the edge of the head itself, and is also taller than the flatter metal hoop of a tom head. The bass drum head won't fit within an 18-inch metal tom rim. I found this out the hard way when I ordered Roland PowerPly (also made by Remo) mesh heads for my two acoustic kits. They don't make an 18-inch PowerPly tom head, so I ordered an 18-inch bass drum head, thinking it would work on a tom. It didn't. So that's why I bought the 1-ply 18-inch Remo Silentstroke. The PowerPlys are better and stronger 2-ply heads (though more expensive), made just like the Roland mesh heads for V-drums. But since I don't use the 18-inch tom that much, the Silentstroke's thinner 1-ply head shouldn't be a problem. Note: The Roland PowerPly mesh heads are not yet available in the U.S. (at least they weren't when I ordered mine in September). I had to order them from drum-tec in Germany (I live in Iowa), which worked just fine (only needing to pay a $26 duty fee to UPS when they arrived, and the 25-euro ($26 U.S. dollars) shipping fee to drum-tec). If you're just using the mesh heads for quiet practice on an acoustic kit, they work great. And if you want to use them to convert your acoustic kit into a hybrid kit by using drum triggers like the new Roland RT-30 series triggers and a decent Roland sound module, they turn your acoustic kit into a great-souding electronic kit that has the great look of your acoustic kit. (Don't worry, I'm just a drummer, not a Roland salesman.) I've played acoustic kits for the last 50 years and electronic kits for the last 12 years. And now I can use my 1969 Slingerland kit or my 2002 DW kit as either. Hope this helps.

Q: When installing on my snare, I’ve noticed that it vibrates like crazy and produces a lot of excess sound when hitting the other heads...any tips?

Hi,,,i don't use the silent strokes on my snare i use a Rtom Black hole it is a drop on snare head and sits about an inch away from the head and has a rubber lip...i play my snare flat so i rim shot a lot and with the remo i would hit the rim this drop on works better for my style,, i do use all remo silents on the toms and the kicks and they work out great...Hope this helped a little

一般にメッシュ系は耐久性や音質に難があると言われてますが、これはいい。「練習用」だけではなく、小さい会場でのライブに最適です。
