Subject: Betr: [Simmons Drums] Silicon Mallet suggestions

From: "Berk Aarts" <B.E.R.K@...>

Not really sure what your plans are.
Considering drummachines, I really like the Korg S3, soundwise, do no try
to understand it's programming, it's horrible. and I really like the Korg
ER-1, kind off "analogue" digital beast

Hope this helps??
