Re: OT Elec. Drum Kit Opinions?

["Bill Cummings" <billcumm@sprynet.com>]

I never owned a TrapKAT, but I've had my drumKAT since 91, and it's been
very reliable. I did replace the FSR pads a couple of times, and have
upgradaed the OS at least 3 or 4 times, but the thing completely rocks (and
is currently up-to-date with the Turbo 2000 4.5 software).It's a very solid
product with excellent support from Alternate Mode (IMO). Contact Mario at
alternate mode for any info or prices.

On another note, I just ordered myself a Zendrum today. It just looked like
too much fun!

(I also play V-drums & handsonic, samplers, repeater, & acoustic drums too)
