I sold four slaves a few years ago, as I recall it you could use them as 
simple trigger pads - but I might be wrong - I'm getting old! ;)

Ugly as hell too if I'm not mistaken (the pads, not me!). ;)

Yeah, very ugly (not you, the pads!). I'm told you can clip 'em to 
the rims of acoustic drums and providing you have the master you can, 
as you say, trigger them for different sounds. But I still don't 
figure out whether you have to use a module to obtain sounds or does 
that come from the master?
