Well Nate, if you say so ...
It depends what sound you're expecting from your SImmons...
if you're talking about peeeeooowwww, yes a lot of things can do
that !
I guess it's the Simmons sounds I hate the most !
but for beefy tribal sounds I didn't find it anywhere else ...I have
tryed the Waldorf Attack....... & never opened it since then...
But If a virtual synth in a laptop can do what I expect from my
SImmons units ; believe me I 'll be the first to purchase it !!!
I'm not a fan of units all over the studio !
Heresy or not , just a personal opinion , virtual synths are far
from Simmons , like Atmosphere is imitating the Fairlight type of
sound in a great & an easier way ........to the point you're lucky
enough to hear a real one ... & you're suddenly in another
universe ...
Which isn't a good thing really , a Fairlight is still a lot more
expensive than Atmosphere ...Unfortunetaly ...
As I said before maybe one day ...
Take care of you SDS9, it's a nice unit ,
Cheers ,
Patrice.
