He, he... :-)  I think the point using such gear is to not sound like
real drummers drumming. Reminds me of how disappointed I felt when
checking out he first "digital drum machines". In 1980 I expected
these new "drum machines" to be like what the Korg Electribe, the
KaossPad etc are today. But what did I find? Crappy recordings of real
drum sounds! In my vision this new invention should expand rhythmic
ensemble work options for musicians - not just parroting
what-we-already-have with a bad accent.
