Got it for a reasonable and very good price ! Serial HC 265.
The Simmons book says, that they sold enought to go for the SDS V, so I
guess
they sold a couple of hundreds of the first two versions.

Cool... I wonder how many survived... 008 sure did as well as 007 since I
know that owner too...

> I also got the Simmons SDS V 00002 that was on ebay UK some time
ago...the one for GBP 5000.- !!!!! Sure I didn´t pay that amount, but got it
for GBP
500.-. I guess that´s ok for a Musicaid SDS V with red knobs, the analogue
Hihat module and a different sound to my other regular SDS V :-))))

I used to own one with Musicaid logos and red buttons on some of the
modules. I never heard any difference though (apart from the fact that
they're analogue that is). But the HH is part digital since the prom
contains noise, or am I mistaking?

DS-4, is that any cool. All the Ultimate Sounds stuff I've run into has been
very disappointing...

Buy my Clavia setup then (as advertised in separate mail)! ;)
