Subject: listen to SDS-2 and ClapTrap

Hi!

Enjoy etc. I finally got around to mp3 these tests.

Simmons MusicAids ClapTrap. Trigged by it's own autotrig and I'm twisting
and turning everything. Dry recording...

Simmons SDS-2. The one and only. Once owned by Stephen Morris of Joy
Division/New Order. Intro is a short flavour of the horrific "factory
presets" but later it's me twisting those knobs. Sequenced in Cubase. Dry
recording.

For those interested in other drum gear I made two other oddities today;

ADM-5 from SEAK. Tjechoslovakian drum synth. I twist the knobs and flip the
switches. Sequenced in Cubase, dry recording.

Tangerine Dream's old drummer EPU, designed by Herr Knüttel 1977. Later
joined by Accessit Great British Spring. No twisting since it's a preset
machine, but sequenced in Cubase.

And if this got your juices flowing... the SEAK is for sale! ;)

electronically yours, jesper
