Re: [Simmons Drums] New poll for Simmons_Drums

2005-02-17 by Patrice JACQUOT

ah ah guys ...the Ultimate simmons Kit ? 
Is it possible to say that as they're all  very very different even if producing a more or less close "Piouuww" together...
So here is my real vote even if I voted for the one I use all the time ....
that's mean why I tryed to get them all ...poor of me !?

SDSIII/IV for the pure analog sound

SDSV for the warm & ballsyer  tom sounds

SDS7 for the cutting through (like a sword blade) highfrequencies filters ...

SDS9 for the best association of ballsy toms & nice foot /snare 

SDX  for the filters , the multisample pads , the positions , the assignable modulation, the sound quality...   
&nearly make together all qualities of the previous SImmons models , 
& all thethings that made it the Fairlight of  percussions
XRack for the same but in a smaller box !

The worse for me is the MTX9 with no interest at all (for me yet ) & the SDS1000 with the ridiculous useless crapy tomtoms (even if eproms are nice)...

I love them all because of the Tribal SOund they all have with more or less electro sound nuances ...

What about you guys ?

CU all, 
Patrice.

  SDS-6 is for Fxxk sake no kit. And neither is the SDS-2 AFAIK since it
  didn't come with pads originally. I guess it used triggers from "real"
  drums...

  I guess I should vote for the SDS-2 otherwise since I think I'm the only one
  on the list who has heard the "gongs" and "plings" from that one. ;)

  electronically yours, jesper
