Thanks  Fernando,

Problem with most drumset is that most sounds are too obvious and different drum-technics (sounds) are not present, allthough very common to live-drumming. Even on most demo's is just a representation of a single pattern going on for some time without showing the possibilities (if they are present). I hope this will change in the near future.
