[sdiy] Drum sample playback

[Quincas Moreira]

There are two other boards that are cheaper, the original Wav trigger and
the MP3 trigger. I agree that 70 bucks is a bit steep, but a lot of R&D
went into this, two companies are involved, etc...  All is relative, if you
compare it with a hardware sampler with similar capabilities it's actually
quite cheap!
