Edit more patches and u will be much more happy with the sounds
Also a sampler is a must.
> In general, I find the upside of the E-Mu ROMs is that the acoustic sounds really have an acoustic feel to them; the downside is that while there are a large number of acoustic drums, there are few electronic sets, mainly focusing on 808 and 909 style drums.
If u look in the instruments while editing patches you will find many more electronic kits.
The Protean Drums ROM has some Emulator II drum sounds which are nice, but the majority of drum sounds are still in the acoustic domain.

Make a template you like and then just edit instruments from there
and I am still curious as to how the Pop Collection ROM compares to the Composer ROM in terms of patches.
