i have no idea how to start learning this thing or how to learn drumming in general.

could someone help me out with it.

and do you guys think, this little thing could help me to develop some skills to play a real drumset once?

Trial and error my friend.

The key component to music is timing. Play that thing and learn to keep a beat in perfect tempo. e.g. don't speed up or slow down...

I never used an eDrum machine, but I assume step 1, power it on...

that thing looks gay as hell, i don't see how playing drums on it would be anything like playing a real set or even any other electric set for that matter. I've been playing an electric set for a while, here's mine:

the set up that Nailec has is similar to one richard 23 of front 242 has. he basically uses it to get pops and booms during their songs. i wouldn't recommend trying to play the drums on it. this set up is mostly for making drum noises with during electronica, or thats the way i see it used most often. it can be good for adding effects and such but not for actually playing drums

you got some vids where i can see it in action?

here is a vid, you may not be able to see it clearly but the center piece of the e set during the live parts in the beginning is like the one you have. he has it supplemented by other e drums for different sounds
