Sample won't do it — its static. One need VA to emulate analog oscillator and analog envelopes/VCA. SDS-V has a very simple synth engine so good result can be had with a computer to create sounds on itself.
But drummers appreciate the direct feel of real analog drums without any latency. And rocking through a big PA nothing compares to the real analog machines.
For sound designers in studio there is also a different creative mindset working on hardware synths.
But to me personally prices on eBay are really off the hinges. Altough I love my SDS-V & 7 and have no plan to sell, — if I had to pay current eBay prices and not needing the kit to play live I definetly sink the money into modular synth modules over most Simmons.
