Firts Impressions of Protean Drums ROM
2003-12-19 by allenscheer2003
Hundreds of drum kits ... lots and lots of good stuff! I can't imagine needing anything else (especially when combined with what I already have in the Proteus Pop and stock MP7 ROMs) for drums. all of the stylistic bases seem to be covered, what a nice thing to have all of this in one box! There are some cool recreations of SP1200 sounds, and what sound like original LinnDrum and perhaps Oberheim DMX sounds as well. There are (of course) some "filler" noises of a rather unexcting nature, but this can be overlooked. Interestingly, the "arps" function was put to pretty good use in this set. It never really occured to me how useful a programmable arpeggiator could be for drum sounds ... this opens up some neat possibilities.
