Vintage Simmons Drums (UK) Users Group

I need help! Does anyone have the new sd7 drum module. I can't figure 
out how to save my kits. After I edit them I follow all the instruction 
in the manual, but when I turn the module off, it does not save. Does 
anyone have any Ideas? Thanks, Scott.

...............go away.

Please read the description of this list again...

"This is a forum for users of the original Simmons electronic drums, for 
sharing information, tips, etc. Since info on Simmons drums is extremely 
limited, let's make this the most informative place on the Web!

However, this list is _NOT_ for the digital drums named Simmons and 
marketed in the US by Guitar Center."

Take it back to the store and complain and demand your money back. And 
then by a real Simmons!

Aren't we - too tired of all kids buying crappy new digital and china 
made hobby kits.

But I ended my message with a really good idea - complain and demand 
your money back... and I was serious!

Maybe just a moderator (or other grown up) should
give a standard reply to Guitar Center "mock Simmons"
questions.  Maybe show them the error of their ways.
I bet that guy is really encouraged to get a proper
Simmons now.


BTW, there are three SDS Vs and some MPC and
Ultimate Percussion stuff on the VEMIA auction site if 
anyone is interrested.

Yes, I tried to be "just" semi-rude while Waveterm went for overkill. I 
consider the list description to be enough since I changed that at the 
time of the release of the "GC Simmons" SDS-5K crap machine.

I saw that. The Drumfire interested me more to be honest (now when 
you've mentioned Vemia) and I've got that on my "lookout list". And 
while at it, bid on item 5899, it's been mixing a lot of Simmons drums 
the last years so it's really experienced in that department! :D

Maybe........maybe not.

Hai all
this discussion has been here before
the kid don't know sh*t about "real" simmons, so we, in all our wisdom, can't
blame him. Perhaps next time just explain to the guy that he is in the wrong
place. Personally I found the first reaction a bit harsh.
I know it is in the description, but put yourself into his position. Kid
thinks he can get some usefull info, instead he gets a not so nice replay.

But please, no more GC "simmons" discussions.

Yours sincerely
Berk

Both I and Waveterm might shape up until next time... we blame the late 
spring in Sweden! ;)

Convince them a smaller electronic version is better - preferrably in 
blue steel! :D

...and throw some hexagones in there to make this ontopic.
